This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused

Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study follows adults with moderate-to-severe prurigo nodularis—a skin condition marked by intensely itchy nodules—who are starting treatment with dupilumab (Dupixent) as part of their normal care. Researchers will track how well the drug reduces itching and clears skin lesions over six months, along with its safety and impact on quality of life. Because it is an observational study, participants receive the drug as prescribed by their doctor, and no experimental treatment is provided.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
dupilumab (Dupixent), a biologic drug given by injection
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could provide real-world evidence on how well dupilumab controls itching and skin lesions in prurigo nodularis over time, potentially supporting its broader use.
What could go wrong
As an observational study, it cannot prove cause and effect, and results may be influenced by patient selection or missing data. Long-term safety and effectiveness in routine practice may differ from clinical trials.
