A Study of Early Secukinumab Treatment in Moderate to Severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa Patients
186 participantsStarted 2026-10-15
Plain-language summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of early treatment with secukinumab in patients with moderate-to-severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and assess its impact on disease progression using data from multiple European data sources. All data will be sourced from existing non-interventional study primary data collection, registries, and hospital cohorts that captured information collected in routine clinical practice, prior to and independent of this study.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion criteria:
* Patients with a documented diagnosis of HS (e.g., International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision \[ICD-10\] code L73.2);
* Age ≥18 years at index date;
* Moderate-to-severe HS as per label;
* Initiation of secukinumab treatment on or after the first HS diagnosis date;
* And at least one follow-up assessment at 6 or 12 months after index date.
Exclusion criteria:
* Patients who had major HS-related surgery (Skin-tissue-sparing Excision with Electrosurgical Peeling \[STEEP\] or wide excision) in the 12 months prior to index date;
* Patients participating in interventional clinical trials at index date.
Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
