Is Your Child Struggling with Painful Skin Bumps?
Learn About Pediatric Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Trials for Kids and Teens!
At Revival Research Institute, we are committed to advancing healthcare solutions for kids and teens affected by this debilitating skin condition. Our Pediatric Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Trials are designed to explore new and promising treatment options that may help reduce inflammation, prevent flare-ups, and improve long-term skin health. These clinical trials are carefully monitored, ensuring safety, comfort, and compassionate care for every one of our young participants.
Through this research, we aim to bring hope to families seeking alternatives to traditional treatments. Participation in dermatology clinical trials like this one may offer access to advanced therapies not yet widely available and could lead to better health outcomes for children living with HS.
If your child is struggling with the symptoms of hidradenitis suppurativa, we invite you to learn more about our ongoing clinical trials. Together, we can pave the way for improved therapies and a brighter, more comfortable future for young patients.
Is Your Child Eligible to Participate?
If your child is living with HS, they may qualify for a Pediatric Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Trial exploring new treatment options designed specifically for young patients. To be eligible, your child must
- Be between 12 and 17 years old
- Have a diagnosis of moderate to severe HS
- Have HS lesions in at least two distinct areas of the body
*Additional Criteria may apply.
Despite how common HS is, treatment options for children and teens remain limited. That’s why Revival Research Institute is committed to advancing research focused on safe, effective therapies for pediatric HS.
About Pediatric Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Trials
If your child is living with the painful, recurring symptoms of HS, you know how challenging it can be to find the right care. At Revival Research Institute, we’re conducting a Pediatric Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Trial focused on helping children and teens (ages 12–17) who are experiencing moderate to severe HS.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and potential benefits of an investigational treatment that may offer new hope for managing this condition. Our goal is to explore better options, so families like yours have more choices beyond the limited treatments currently available. If your child qualifies and you choose to participate, you’ll be supported every step of the way by a dedicated team of experienced healthcare professionals. Study visits may include physical exams, blood tests, and health questionnaires, all closely monitored to prioritize your child’s well-being.
*There is no cost to participate. All study-related care, including the investigational medication, is provided at no charge, and no insurance is needed.
*Just fill out the form above, and someone from our research team will contact you. We’ll walk you through the process, answer your questions, and ask a few brief questions about your child’s health to see if they may qualify.
Get Started: What to Expect?
Once you submit the form, someone from our research team will contact you directly to discuss the next steps. If your child seems like a good fit for the study, we’ll help you schedule an appointment to visit our research site, where the screening process will begin. This includes a detailed review of your child’s medical history and a few simple health checks to determine if they’re eligible to participate.
If your child qualifies and you choose to move forward, participation may last several weeks. During this time, our experienced medical team will provide personalized care and keep a close watch on your child’s health. Every part of the study is designed with your child’s safety and comfort in mind.
There is no cost to take part in the study, and you won’t need health insurance. In some cases, compensation for time and travel may also be provided. Participation is completely voluntary, and you’ll have the chance to ask any questions before making a decision. We’re here to guide you every step of the way.

What You Need to Know About HS
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic skin condition that causes painful bumps, abscesses, and tunnels under the skin, typically in areas like the armpits, groin, buttocks, or under the breasts. While it’s more commonly diagnosed in adults, HS can also affect children and adolescents, often beginning around puberty.
In pediatric cases, HS is frequently underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed, leading to delayed treatment and unnecessary pain. Children and teens with HS may experience swelling, drainage, scarring, and significant emotional distress, especially due to the location and visibility of the symptoms.
Why Pediatric HS Matters
Managing HS in young people is especially challenging because:
- Treatment options are limited and not always approved for pediatric use
- The condition can interfere with daily life, school, and self-esteem
- Early intervention can help prevent worsening symptoms and long-term complications
Common Symptoms of Pediatric Hidradenitis Suppurativa
- Painful bumps or boils that come and go
- Skin that drains fluid or pus
- Scars or tunnel-like tracts under the skin (sinus tracts)
- Flare-ups triggered by stress, heat, or hormonal changes
