AI Article Synopsis

  • Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a long-term skin disease that's tough to manage and treat.
  • Biologics and small targeted molecules are being explored as potential treatments for moderate-to-severe HS, with only three approved by FDA or EMA: adalimumab, secukinumab, and bimekizumab.
  • Ongoing research is focusing on new agents that target various inflammatory pathways, including interleukin 17A/F and the JAK/STAT pathway.

Article Abstract

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that can be challenging to treat. Biologics and targeted small molecules have become an increasingly popular area of investigation for therapeutic development for moderate-to-severe HS, though only three biologics-adalimumab, secukinumab, and bimekizumab-have received US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or European Medicines Evaluation Agency approval for treating HS. Promising agents under investigation are targeting interleukin 17A/F, JAK/STAT pathway, interleukin 36, interleukin 1, and more.
