What this trial studies
This clinical trial aims to compare the efficacy and safety of two treatments, secukinumab and tofacitinib, in adults with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either secukinumab injections or tofacitinib tablets for one year, with regular clinic visits for monitoring. The study will evaluate which treatment is more effective and assess any medical problems associated with each medication. Participants will also maintain a diary to track their symptoms and medication use.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a more effective treatment option for patients suffering from moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promising results with secukinumab and tofacitinib for similar conditions, indicating potential for success in this approach.
