Clinical Trial Summary

With microwave ablation (MWA), using the heat generated from electromagnetic waves in the microwave energy spectrum, hair follicles and apocrine glands in the (hypo)dermis are ablated through thermolysis. MWA was recently approved for the treatment of axillary hyperhidrosis (miraDry) and removal of axillary hair (miraSmooth). By permanent removal of hairs and sweat glands, the investigators hypothesize a beneficial and long-term sustainable preventive effect of MWA in HS patients.


Clinical Trial Description

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, inflammatory skin disease of the hair follicle, and is predominantly located in the axillary, inguinal and anogenital regions. Current treatment options for HS include systemic oral antibiotics, anti-TNFα, and surgery, which are used to treat the consequences rather than treating the primary pathogenesis of HS. With microwave ablation (MWA), using the heat generated from electromagnetic waves in the microwave energy spectrum, hair follicles, eccrine and apocrine glands in the (hypo)dermis are ablated through thermolysis. MWA was recently approved for the treatment of axillary hyperhidrosis (miraDry) and removal of axillary hair (miraSmooth). By permanent removal of hairs and sweat glands, the investigators hypothesize a beneficial and long-term sustainable preventive effect of MWA in HS patients. ;
