Active clinical trials for "Hidradenitis"

To study the role of C5a in Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS). Complement C5a is a major chemotactic factor that stimulates neutrophil infiltration.

This study assesses Humira's® real-life effectiveness in the management of dermatological manifestations of moderate to severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS).

This non-intervention study will identify the biomarker profiles in hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and atopic dermatitis (AD) (as a comparator) that would have the most utility in interventional studies evaluating efficacy during therapeutic intervention. Study data will also be used to correlate cellular/molecular changes in blood (cells and serum), and tissue, with clinical/histopathological phenotypes.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety profile of Adalimumab for Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) participants in normal medical practice.

This study will assess the effects of adalimumab treatment in moderate to severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) patients in the real world setting. The objectives of this study are to estimate the effectiveness of adalimumab treatment on disease severity, to estimate the impact of adalimumab treatment on patients' quality of life, psychological effect, work productivity and healthcare resource utilization and to describe treatment practices over the study period.

Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) is a recurrent inflammatory disease (< 2 episode /6 months) with 1%-4% prevalence in Europe. Suppurating lesions are painful and involve one or more regions (axilla, genitofemoral, perineum, gluteal areas and inframammary, creases). For recalcitrant stage II and III, wide surgical skin excision is the only recommended and validated treatment in case inefficacity of medical conventional systemic therapies or limited-local surgery. Perforator Flaps (PF) surgery, are a new and innovative surgical technique, that, unlike secondary wound healing, allows a single stage reconstruction at the same time as skin excision without its disadvantages.: prolonged healing time, with multiple painful dressings (costs) retractile scar with reduction of the range of motion, dyschromia, unstable and fragile scar. The hypothesis of study is a 30% reduction of time to healing by using perforators flaps technique (PF) versus wound healing (SIWH), for axillary reconstruction after surgical wide excision in axillary hidradenitis suppurativa stage II or III in adults with inadequate response to conventional systemic therapy.

This is a multicenter open-label mode of action study. Twenty patients with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa will be treated with guselkumab 200 mg Q4W subcutaneously. Main objectie is to investigate changes in inflammatory pathways induced by IL-23p19 blockade with guselkumab, in HS lesional skin. The total duration of the treatment period per subject is 16 weeks.

: Treatment of chronic, recalcitrant HS presents significant challenges and frustration to both the patient and the provider. In chronic, recalcitrant HS, wide surgical excision is considered the treatment of choice.13 In 2016, Join-Lambert et al investigated the use of intravenous (IV) ertapenem in 30 patients with severe, refractory HS.14 One gram of ertapenem daily for 6 weeks followed by consolidation antibiotics for 6 months demonstrated promising results in severe, recalcitrant HS.14 These patients reported significant improvements in pain, purulent drainage, and a decrease in handicap score.14 Additionally, this technique is less invasive than surgical excision.

Patients undergoing wide surgical excision of their hidradenitis suppurativa areas are asked by telephone about their quality of life by standard questionnaires (WHOQOL-BREF, DLQI, Skindex, MHF, FLQA-d) and their sexual function (FSFI, IIEF).

The goal of this study is to get a better understanding of the skin condition, Hidradenitis Suppurativa, and to find out how the disease affects quality of life. The investigators hope this information will help improve treatment for this skin condition.
