Article Synopsis
  • - Biological therapy, specifically brodalumab, shows promise in treating hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) by targeting the IL-17 receptor, which may play a role in the disorder's immune dysregulation.
  • - A study involving 16 adults with moderate to severe HS found that 50% achieved an improvement in symptoms and experienced a significant decrease in disease severity after 16 weeks of brodalumab treatment.
  • - The treatment was generally safe, with some patients experiencing mild adverse effects, suggesting that brodalumab is a viable option for those who did not respond to previous biologics like adalimumab.
