Condition: Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) · Sponsor: Wynn Medical Center
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a long-lasting skin condition that causes painful lumps, abscesses, and tunnels in areas such as the armpits and groin. HS begins around the hair follicle; when the follicle becomes blocked and inflamed, new lesions form. Prior clinical studies of lasers that act on the hair follicle have shown improvement in HS symptoms, and a 1726-nm diode laser-designed to selectively heat oil glands within the follicle-has reduced inflammatory lesions in acne with good tolerability across many skin types. This study will test whether a 1726-nm diode laser can safely reduce inflammatory HS lesions in Hurley stage I-II disease. Adults with bilateral (right/left) affected areas will be randomized so that one side receives active laser treatment and the other side receives a sham procedure. Participants will have three treatment sessions over 8 weeks and follow-up through Week 24 while continuing their stable HS medications. The primary outcome is the percent change in abscess and inflammatory nodule counts on the treated side versus the sham side at Week 16. Secondary outcomes include validated HS responder scores, pain, quality of life, flare rate/antibiotic use, and safety. Results may support a non-ablative, follicle-directed option for early HS.
