Percentage of Participants With Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response (HiSCR) Over TimeWeek 4, 12 and 24

HiSCR is a clinical endpoint focusing on assessment of HS inflammatory signs and symptoms to determine the clinical effectiveness of adalimumab.

HiSCR requires:

* At least a 50% reduction in the total abscess and inflammatory nodule count (AN count) relative to baseline, and

* No increase in abscess count, and

* No increase in draining fistula count. In first bullet AN count is defined as sum of abscess count and inflammatory nodules count.
