Hidradenitis Suppurutiva Awareness Week: Biomarkers for Hidradenitis Suppurutiva
June 3, 2025
The Hidradenitis Suppurutiva Awareness Week is held annually to spread knowledge about the disease and how it affects patients. Affecting roughly 1% of the population, HS causes significant physical and emotional challenges that are often overlooked. The HS awareness week aims to spread knowledge about the disease and how it affects patients.
HS is believed to result from a complex mix of genetic predisposition, lifestyle factors, and immune system dysfunction, driving a continuous cycle of inflammation. It commonly presents as painful nodules, abscesses, draining tunnels beneath the skin, and scarring.
These symptoms often cause physical discomfort and disability, affecting quality of life, personal relationships, and career opportunities.
People living with HS respond differently to treatments, and we believe that raising awareness and supporting research is key to developing tailored treatment strategies that truly address their challenges.
Our dermatology biomarkers enable precision medicine by providing information about ongoing pathological processes, such as damage and repair, within the ECM. This can guide targeted treatments and therapies, enhancing patient outcomes and personalized medicine approaches. At the same time, our markers, supported by our long history of experience and expertise, expedite drug development by specifically identifying target populations and reducing costs, over proteomic providers’ hopes to hit the right target by chance.
