Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response 75Week 12

Percentage of participants achieving Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response 75 (HiSCR75), where HiSCR75 is defined as at least a 75% reduction from baseline in abscess and inflammatory nodule (AN) count, with no increase from baseline in abscess or draining fistula count.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response 50Week 12

Proportion of participants achieving HiSCR50

Change in International Hidradenitis Suppurativa Severity Score SystemWeek 12

Change from baseline in International Hidradenitis Suppurativa Severity Score System (IHS4)

The IHS4 score is calculated as follows: number of nodules (multiplied by 1) plus the number of abscesses (multiplied by 2) plus the number of draining tunnels (multiplied by 4). A total score of 3 or less signifies mild, 4 to 10 signifies moderate and 11 or higher signifies severe disease.

Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI)Week 12

Proportion of participants achieving a Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) total score of ≤5

The DLQI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 30. A higher score indicates greater health-related quality of life impairment.

Reduction from Numerical Rating Scale (NRS30) in Patient's Global Assessment of Skin Pain (PGA Skin Pain)Week 12

Proportion of participants achieving at least 30% reduction and at least 2-unit reduction from Baseline in Numerical Rating Scale (NRS30) in Patient's Global Assessment of Skin Pain (PGA Skin Pain) among subjects with Baseline NRS ≥3

The NRS is a numeric scale in which the respondent selects a whole number (0-10 integers) that best reflects the intensity of their pain ranging from 0 (no skin pain) to 10 (skin pain as bad as you can imagine).
