Study Description

This study aims to assess the treatment satisfaction of HS patients newly started on secukinumab in Saudi Arabia, in terms of patient reported convenience, perceived safety, perceived effectiveness and global treatment satisfaction as measured by the treatment satisfaction questionnaire for medication (TSQM) at week 24 among moderate to severe HS patients. This is a 24-week longitudinal single arm prospective study based on data collected from electronic medical records (EMRs) and patient-reported outcomes questionnaires (TSQM, DLQI, and NPRS-11) to evaluate patient-reported satisfaction and early QoL experiences among HS adult patients who are newly administering Secukinumab as per routine clinical practice.

Data will be captured from both data sources (EMRs and Questionnaires) at the following time points (+/- 1 month):

* Baseline (index date: initiation of Secukinumab),
* 24 weeks.

This is in line with the frequency of routine follow-up visits and as per the standard of care to report on pre-defined outcomes in a representative HS population across Saudi Arabia.
