Five new drugs aim to tame painful skin condition

NCT ID NCT03827798

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests five different investigational drugs (iscalimab, LYS006, MAS825, remibrutinib, and ianalumab) in 248 adults with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa, a chronic skin condition causing painful lumps. The main goal is to see if these drugs reduce abscesses and inflammatory nodules by at least 50% without increasing draining tunnels. Participants are randomly assigned to receive a drug or a placebo, and neither they nor their doctors know which they get.
