A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11890349B2) discloses a method for treating hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) or an HS-related disorder by administering a selective C5a receptor inhibitor to a subject in need. The inhibitor specified in the patent is avacopan, which is described by a specific chemical formula. This method aims to target the C5a receptor, specifically C5aR, to address the symptoms and underlying mechanisms of HS.

Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by painful nodules, abscesses, and sinus tracts in areas with apocrine glands. By utilizing a selective C5a receptor inhibitor like avacopan, the patented method seeks to modulate the immune response associated with HS. The inhibition of the C5a receptor, particularly C5aR, is believed to play a crucial role in reducing inflammation and improving the symptoms of HS. This approach represents a novel and potentially effective treatment strategy for individuals suffering from HS and related disorders.
