First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study compares injecting secukinumab directly into skin lesions versus standard under-the-skin injections for people with localized hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). The goal is to see if local delivery works better and causes fewer side effects. Thirty adults with HS lesions in one body area will be enrolled.
