Eligibility criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult male or female, ≥18 years of age at the time of signing the form (ICF)
  • A diagnosis of moderate-to-severe HS for at least 1 year prior to the Screening visit from review of medical history and/or participant interview.
  • A total AN count of ≥5 inflammatory lesions (ie, number of abscesses plus number of inflammatory nodules) including at least 2 palpable inflammatory nodules at both the Screening and Baseline (Day 1) visits.
  • Draining tunnel count of ≤20 at the Screening or Baseline (Day 1) visit.
  • HS lesions present in at least 2 distinct anatomic areas (eg, left and right axilla), one of which must be at least Hurley Stage II or Hurley Stage III at both the Screening and Baseline (Day 1) visits.
  • History of inadequate response, intolerance, or to a course of systemic antibiotics for treatment of HS or exhibited recurrence after discontinuation of antibiotics through study participant interview and/or review of medical history.
  • Willing and able to undergo the required skin .

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Currently experiencing, or previous history of, other concomitant skin conditions (eg, psoriasis, cutaneous lupus, previous burns, or extensive tattoos) that would interfere with evaluations of the effect of study intervention on HS.
  • Other active skin diseases or skin infections (bacterial, fungal, or viral) requiring systemic treatment within 30 days of the Baseline visit (Day 1) or that could interfere with the appropriate assessment of HS lesions.
  • Known immunodeficiency syndrome, history of an invasive infection (eg, sepsis, severe pneumonia, osteomyelitis), or active non-skin-related infection requiring systemic anti-infective treatment within 30 days of Baseline (Day 1).
  • History of not related to medication (such as common variable hypogammaglobulinemia), history of medical conditions (such as anemia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, abnormal renal function, or abnormal liver function), planned surgical procedures, or any other reason which in the opinion of the investigator or sponsor would interfere with the participant's participation in this study, would make the participant an unsuitable candidate to receive study intervention, or would put the participant at risk by participating in the study; or permanently wheelchair-bound or bedridden or very poor functional status which prevents the ability to perform self-care.
  • Have an unstable or uncontrolled illness, including but not limited to cerebrocardiovascular (eg, unstable angina, unstable arterial hypertension, moderate to severe heart failure [ Class III/IV]), respiratory, gastrointestinal, endocrine, hematologic, or neurologic disorders that would potentially affect participant safety within the study or confound efficacy and safety assessments.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(6)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Biopsy and archival tissue

A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.

Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

NYHA class (heart failure)

The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.

I
No limits: ordinary activity causes no undue tiredness or breathlessness.
II
Slight limits: comfortable at rest, ordinary activity causes symptoms.
III
Marked limits: comfortable at rest, less than ordinary activity causes symptoms.
IV
Symptoms even at rest; any activity makes them worse.

Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.

Interventions

06

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of adverse events, changes in laboratory values, vital signs, and ECGs

    Incidence, nature, and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events of soquelitinib, including changes in laboratory values, vital signs, and ECGs

    Time frame: up to 30 days after last intervention administration

Secondary outcomes

  1. 1) percentage of participants achieving HiSCR50 2) percentage of participants achieving HiSCR75 3) percentage of participants achieving HiSCR90

    HiSCR is a validated clinical endpoint used to assess the inflammatory signs and symptoms of HS. HiSCR evaluation is based in count of active HS lesions including abscesses, inflammatory nodules and draining tunnels (fistulas). The sum of abscesses and inflammatory nodules constitutes the total AN count.

    Time frame: Week 12

  2. Efficacy as measured by Hidradenitis Suppurativa Severity Score System (IHS4)

    IHS4 captures the inflammatory burden of draining tunnels, inflammatory nodules and abscesses. Different weights are assigned to each lesion type: inflammatory nodules (1 point), abscesses (2 points), and draining tunnels (4 points). The number of each lesion type is multiplied by its respective weight, and the three obtained values are then summed to obtain the total IHS4 score.

    Time frame: Week 12

  3. Efficacy as measured by change and percentage change in lesion count

    Lesion count includes abscess count, inflammatory nodule count, abscess and inflammatory nodule \[AN\] count, draining tunnel count

    Time frame: Week 12

  4. 1) at least 30% reduction and at least 1-pt reduction and 2) at least 3-pt reduction from Baseline in the weekly average of daily HS-Skin Pain NRS

    The Skin Pain-NRS is used to assess participants self-reported severity of worst skin pain each day. The NRS is an 11-point scale (0 to 10), with 0 indicating "no pain" and 10 indicating the "worst pain imaginable" in a 24-hour recall period.

    Time frame: Week 12

  5. Evaluate change from baseline in Hidradenitis Suupurativa Quality of Life (HiSQoL) Score

    HiSQoL is 17-item questionnaire to assess HS-specific health-related quality of life which has a recall period of 7 days. The HiSQoL includes 3 subscales: symptom status, psychosocial impact, and impact on physical activities. Individual item scores are summed and a total score ranging from 0 to 68 is calculated, where the higher the score the more impact HS has on quality of life.

    Time frame: Week 12

  6. Evaluate change from baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI)

    DLQI is a 10-item, validated, quality of life questionnaire. Participants assess their quality of life across 6 domains (symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work and school, personal relationships, and treatment). Response options with corresponding scores are "not at all" (0), "a lot" (1), and "very much" (3), and "not relevant" or unanswered responses scored as 0. Participants with higher total scores indicate greater impairment of quality of life. A 4-point change from Baseline is considered the minimal clinically important difference threshold

    Time frame: Week 12
