Could early treatment tame a painful skin condition?

NCT ID NCT07690319

First seen Jul 08, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at whether starting secukinumab early in people with moderate-to-severe hidradenitis suppurativa (a chronic skin condition causing painful lumps) can slow disease progression. Researchers will analyze data from existing medical records and registries across Europe. The goal is to see if early action leads to better outcomes, such as a 55% reduction in disease severity at 6 and 12 months.
