Completed
Conditions
Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Interventions
Drug: Izokibep
Drug: Placebo to izokibep
Registration Number
NCT05355805
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

Izokibep is a potent and selective inhibitor of interleukin 17A (IL-17A) that is being developed for treatment of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Part A: Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response (HiSCR75)Part A: Week 12

The number of participants in Part A who achieved hidradenitis suppurativa clinical response 75 (HiSCR75) at Week 12.

Part B: Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response 75 (HiSCR75)Part B: Week 16

The number of participants in Part B who achieved hidradenitis suppurativa clinical response 75 (HiSCR75) at Week 16.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Part B: Participants Achieving HiSCR90Part B: Week 16

The number of participants in Part B who achieved hidradenitis suppurativa clinical response 90 (HiSCR90) at Week 16.

Part B: Participants Achieving HiSCR100Part B: Week 16

The number of participants in Part B who achieved hidradenitis suppurativa clinical response 100 (HiSCR100) at Week 16.

Part B: Participants Achieving HiSCR50Part B: Week 16

The number of participants in Part B who achieved hidradenitis suppurativa clinical response 50 (HiSCR50) at Week 16.

Part B: Participants Who Experience ≥ 1 Disease Flare Through 16 Weeks of TreatmentPart B: Day 1 through to Week 16

The number of participants in Part B who experienced ≥ 1 hidradenitis suppurativa flare through Week 16.

Part B: Participants With Hurley Stage II at Baseline Who Achieved Abscess and Inflammatory Nodule (AN) Count of 0, 1, or 2Part B: Week 16

The percentage of participants with baseline Hurley Stage II who achieved AN count of 0, 1, or 2 at Week 16.

Hurley stages:

Stage 1 - solitary or multiple, isolated abscess formation without scarring or sinus tracts Stage 2 - recurrent abscesses, single or multiple widely separated lesions, with sinus tract formation Stage 3 - diffuse or broad involvement, with multiple interconnected sinus tracts and abscesses.

Part B: Participants Achieving at Least 3 Point Reduction From Baseline in NRS in Patient Global Assessment of Skin Pain at Its Worst at Week 16 Among Participants With Baseline NRS ≥ 4Part B: Week 16

Participants achieving at least 3 point reduction from baseline in NRS in Patient Global Assessment of Skin Pain at its worst at Week 16 among participants with baseline NRS ≥4 NRS = Numerical Rating Scale

The numeric rating scale (NRS) Patient Global Assessment of Skin Pain consists of scores from 0 to 10 with 0 indicating "no skin pain" and 10 indicating "pain as bad as you can imagine". The pain will be described as "skin pain at its worst in the last 24 hours" and "skin pain on average in the last 24 hours."

Part B Period 1: Incidence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) of Special InterestPart B Period 1: Screening (Day -28) to Follow-up (Week 39)

The number of participants in Part B Period 1 with TEAEs of special interest.

Adverse events of special interest were adverse events in the following categories: candida infection, inflammatory bowel disease, suicidal ideation, malignancies, major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, tuberculosis, infections, cytopenias and hypersensitivity reactions.

Part B Period 1: Incidence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Leading to DiscontinuationPart B Period 1: Screening (Day -28) to Follow-up (Week 39)

The number of participants in Part B Period 1 with TEAEs leading to discontinuation of study treatment
