PARTICIPATE LIKE THE FUTURE OF HS DEPENDS ON IT, BECAUSE IT DOES.
Clinical trials, research and surveys are open until the quota of participants is met or the study is concluded. We are consistently checking and updating this page. If you come across a study that is closed or no longer accepting participants, please let us know here.
​
It is the responsibility of each of us with HS to participate in whatever studies, research and surveys possible to further the research and knowledge of HS for ourselves, friends and other warriors currently suffering and those who haven't yet been diagnosed.

Avacopan
It is a receptor inhibitor acting like a biologic and an immunosuppressant and was developed for both auto-inflammatory and autoimmune illnesses. They also have expectations that Avacopan can be used as an alternative to corticosteroids. It inhibits the complement C5a receptor, or C5aR, for inflammatory diseases. Avacopan blocks the activity of complement C5a, a component of the complement system and the for C5aR.
