Battlefield-style ear acupuncture for hidradenitis pain
Part of Infections, Pain, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests a type of ear acupuncture (“battlefield acupuncture”) to reduce pain from hidradenitis suppurativa, a long-term skin condition. You may be eligible if your hidradenitis pain is frequent and your treatments are stable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Be 18 years old or older
- Have a diagnosis of hidradenitis suppurativa confirmed by a dermatologist
- Have enough hidradenitis pain that you experience it at least twice per week
- Be able to keep your current hidradenitis treatments the same during the study

This trial tests a new medicine called HB0043 for people with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (a skin condition causing painful lumps). It aims to see if the drug is safe and helps reduce symptoms.
This study tests a new medicine called LAD191 for people with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) who haven't been helped enough by antibiotics. Researchers want to see if LAD191 safely reduces painful bumps and tunnels.
This study tests a new drug called LAD328 for hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), a chronic skin condition with painful lumps and abscesses. The trial is looking for adults with moderate-to-severe HS who haven't responded well to antibiotics to see if this new treatment can help reduce symptoms.
This trial studies whether botulinum toxin (Botox) injections can improve hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), a painful skin condition with recurring bumps and tunnels. You might be a good match if you have long-lasting HS in more than one body area and can safely do skin-area treatment visits (including skin biopsy if needed).
This study tracks the daily experiences of people living with hidradenitis suppurativa to learn more about their symptoms and treatment patterns. By participating, you help doctors better understand this condition, which could lead to improved care and support.
