Background: Therapeutic options for mild hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) represent a significant gap in the current treatment landscape, with no FDA approved therapies for early stage HS. Topical JAnus Kinase inhibitors (JAKi) are a compelling option due to the known upregulation of inflammatory JAK signaling in HS lesions and the recent success of systemic JAKi for moderate to severe HS.

Objectives: This is a pilot, single-site, open-label, prospective 24-week clinical trial with topical ruxolitinib (NCT04414514).
