Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of participants who achieve Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response 50 (HiSCR50)54 weeks

HiSCR50 is defined as at least a 50% reduction from baseline in the total abscess and inflammatory nodule count, with no increase from baseline in abscess or draining tunnel count.

Proportion of participants who achieve Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response 75 (HiSCR75)54 weeks

HiSCR75 is defined as at least a 75% reduction from baseline in the total abscess and inflammatory nodule count, with no increase from baseline in abscess or draining tunnel count.

Mean change from baseline in abscess count at each visit54 weeks

Defined as mean change of abscess count relative to baseline.

Mean percentage change from baseline in abscess count at each visit54 weeks

Defined as mean percentage change from baseline in abscess count.

Mean change from baseline in inflammatory nodule count at each visit54 weeks

Defined as mean change of inflammatory nodule count relative to baseline.

Mean percentage change from baseline in inflammatory nodule count at each visit54 weeks

Defined as mean percentage change from baseline in inflammatory nodule count.

Mean change from baseline in draining tunnel count at each visit54 weeks

Defined as mean change of draining tunnel count relative to baseline.

Mean percentage change from baseline in draining tunnel count at each visit54 weeks

Defined as mean percentage change from baseline in draining tunnel count.

Proportion of participants who achieve Skin Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)30 among participants with baseline Skin Pain NRS score ≥ 354 weeks

Defined as participants with a Skin Pain NRS score of at least 3 at baseline and who achieve Skin Pain NRS30, defined as at least a 30% reduction and at least 1-unit reduction from baseline in the Skin Pain NRS.

Proportion of participants with a ≥ 3-point decrease in Skin Pain NRS score at Week 12 among participants with baseline Skin Pain NRS score ≥ 354 weeks

Participants with a Skin Pain score of at least 3 at baseline and who experience at least a 3-point decrease in Skin Pain score.

Change from baseline in Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) score at each visit54 weeks

The CDLQI is a simple, 10-question validated questionnaire to measure how much the skin problem has affected the participant over the previous 7 days, across symptoms and feelings, leisure, school or holidays, personal relationships, sleep, and treatment.
