Study Description

The primary objective of this non-interventional study is to describe the evolution of
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) symptoms 12 months after secukinumab initiation based on
the patients' assessment of pain, oozing, and bad smell. This study is a prospective (primary data), national, descriptive, non-interventional,
multicentre study conducted by medical practice and hospital-based dermatologists across
different geographical regions in France.

This real-world study does not change the physician-patient relationship or patient
management or follow-up. Physicians remain free with their prescriptions and patient
follow-up procedures. In fact, secukinumab initiation and all treatment decisions will be
made according to routine medical care and independently of study participation.

Recruited patients will be longitudinally followed-up for the duration of the study, up
to 24 months (± 3 months) after secukinumab initiation or secukinumab treatment
discontinuation before the end of the 24 months of follow-up (early discontinuation).
