Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline in Abscess and Inflammatory Nodule (AN) Count at Week 12

    AN count was the sum of number of abscess and inflammatory nodules across anatomical regions. The least square (LS) mean change from baseline in the count at Week 12 was estimated from the Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM) model.

    Baseline, Week 12

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response (HiSCR50) at Week 12

    Week 12

  • Change From Baseline in International Hidradenitis Suppurativa Severity Score System (IHS-4) at Week 12

    Baseline, Week 12

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving NRS30

    Week 12

  • Change From Baseline in Hidradenitis Suppurativa-Physician Global Assessment (HSPGA) at Week 12

    Baseline, Week 12

  • Change From Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) at Week 12

    Baseline, Week 12

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Able to comprehend and be willing to sign the Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved participant informed consent form prior to administration of any study-related procedures.
  • Participant must have stable HS.
  • Total abscesses and/or nodule (AN) count of ≥5 at Baseline visit.
  • HS lesions present in at least 2 distinct anatomical areas at Screening and Baseline.

You may not qualify if:

  • Participant has a history of active skin disease other than HS that could interfere with the assessment of HS.
  • Participant has an uncontrolled non-immunoinflammatory disease that may place the participant at increased risk during the study or impact the interpretation of results, e.g., previous malignancy, previous venous thromboembolism.
  • Participant has experience with \>2 biologics, \>1 Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, or a combination of 1 biologic experience and 1 JAK inhibitor.
  • Are currently receiving corticosteroids at doses greater than 10 mg per day of prednisone (or equivalent) or have been receiving an unstable dosing regimen of corticosteroids within 2 weeks of the Screening visit.
