Intervention model description
Participants will be randomized 1:1:1 to Povorcitinib Dose A, Povorcitinib Dose B, or Placebo once a day (QD); participants who complete the placebo-controlled (PC) 12-week period may continue to a 42-week extension (EXT) period with Povorcitinib (Dose A or Dose B) QD.
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Male and female participants ≥ 18 years of age. * Diagnosis of moderate to severe HS ≥ 3 months prior to Screening visit. * HS lesions present in ≥ 2 distinct anatomic areas, 1 of which must be at least Hurley Stage II or Hurley Stage III, at both the Screening and Baseline visits. * Total abscess and inflammatory nodule (AN) count ≥ 5 at both the Screening and Baseline visits. * History of inadequate response to an appropriate course of at least 1 conventional systemic therapy for HS (or demonstrated intolerance to, or have a contraindication to, a conventional systemic therapy for HS) * Agree to not use certain topical antiseptics on the areas affected by HS lesions during the placebo-controlled period. * Willingness to avoid pregnancy or fathering children. * Other inclusion criteria apply.
Exclusion criteria
* Draining tunnel count of \> 20 at Screening or Baseline visits. * Women who are pregnant (or who are considering pregnancy) or breastfeeding. * Medical history including thrombocytopenia, coagulopathy or platelet dysfunction; venous and arterial thrombosis, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, stroke, moderate to severe heart failure, cerebrovascular accident, myocardial infarction, or other significant cardiovascular diseases; Q-wave interval abnormalities; disseminated herpes zoster or dermatomal herpes zoster; disseminated herpes simplex; chronic/recurrent infections; malignancies. * Evidence of infection with TB, HBV, HCV or HIV. * History of failure to JAK inhibitor treatment of any inflammatory disease. * Laboratory values outside of the protocol-defined ranges. * Other
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Proportion of participants who achieve Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response (HiSCR) | Week 12 | HiSCR 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. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Proportion of participants with flare | 12 Weeks | Participants who experience at least 1 flare over 12 weeks; flare is defined as at least a 25% increase in the total abscess and inflammatory nodule count with a minimum increase of 2 relative to baseline. |
| Proportion of participants with a ≥ 3-point decrease in Skin Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) score among participants with baseline Skin Pain NRS score ≥ 3 | Week 12 | 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 at Week 12, relative to baseline. Skin Pain is an 11-point NRS, ranging from 0 (no skin pain) to 10 (worst skin pain). |
| Proportion of participants who achieve Skin Pain NRS30 at Week 12 among participants with baseline Skin Pain NRS score ≥ 3. | Week 12 | Participants with a Skin Pain score of at least 3 at baseline and who achieve at Week 12 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 ≥ 4-point increase from baseline in Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy - Fatigue (FACIT-F) score | Week 12 | Participants with a baseline FACIT-F score ≤ 48 and who experience at least a 4-point increase in FACIT-F score at Week 12, relative to baseline. The FACIT-F scale is a 13-item questionnaire that assesses self-reported fatigue and its impact upon daily activities and function over the past 7 days, with scores ranging from 0 (worst fatigue) to 52 (no fatigue). |
| Mean change from baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) score | 54 weeks | The DLQI is a skin disease specific questionnaire aimed at the evaluation of how symptoms and treatment affect participants' health-related quality of life (QoL). The DLQI total score ranges from 0 to 30, with higher scores indicating lower skin health related QoL. |
| Mean change from baseline in abscess count | 54 weeks | Defined as mean change of abscess(es) count relative to baseline. |
| Percentage change from baseline in abscess count | 54 weeks | Percent Change from baseline in number of abscess(es) |
| Mean change from baseline in inflammatory nodule count | 54 weeks | Defined as mean change of inflammatory nodule count relative to baseline. |
| Proportion of participants who achieve Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response 75 (HiSCR75) | Week 12 | 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 draining tunnel count | 54 weeks | Defined as mean change of draining tunnel count relative to baseline. |
| Percentage change from baseline in draining tunnel count | 54 weeks | Defined as Percent change from baseline in number of draining tunnel(s) |
| Extension Period: Proportion of participants who achieve HiSCR | Week 24 | HiSCR 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. |
| Extension Period: Proportion of participants who achieve HiSCR75 | Week 24 | 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. |
| Extension Period: Proportion of participants with flare | From Week 12 through Week 24 | Participants who experience at least 1 flare over the period under assessment; flare is defined as at least a 25% increase in the total abscess and inflammatory nodule count with a minimum increase of 2 relative to baseline. |
| Extension Period: Proportion of participants who achieved Skin Pain NRS30 among participants with baseline Skin Pain NRS score ≥ 3. | Week 24 | Skin Pain NRS30 defined as at least a 30% reduction and at least 1-unit reduction from baseline in the Skin Pain NRS. |
| Extension Period: Proportion of participants who achieve maintenance of HiSCR or greater response at each visit | From Week 12 through Week 54 | Maintenance of response defined as participants who achieve HiSCR at Week 12 and maintain it or achieve greater response at each visit during the EXT period. |
| Extension Period: Proportion of participants who achieve maintenance of HiSCR75 or greater response at each visit | From Week 12 through Week 54 | Maintenance of response defined as participants who achieve HiSCR75 at Week 12 and maintain it or achieve greater response at each visit during the EXT period. |
| Percentage change from baseline in inflammatory nodule count | 54 weeks | Defined as percent change from baseline in number of inflammatory nodule(s) |
