What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
[Period 1] Percent change from baseline in abscess and inflammatory nodule (AN) count at 16 weeks
AN count is calculated based on the sum of the abscesses and inflammatory nodules across different anatomical areas
Measured: Week 16
Secondary outcomes (6)
[Period 1] Achieving HiSCR50 at Week 16
HiSCR50 is defined as at least a 50% decrease in total abscess and inflammatory nodule (AN) count with no increase from baseline in abscess and/or draining fistula count
Measured: Week 16
[Period 1] Achieving HiSCR75 at Week 16
HiSCR75 is defined as at least a 75% decrease in total abscess and inflammatory nodule (AN) count with no increase from baseline in abscess and/or draining fistula count
Measured: Week 16
[Period 1] Absolute change from baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) score at Week 16
The DLQI is a validated general dermatology questionnaire that consists of 10 items that assess subject health-related quality of life (daily activities, personal relationships, symptoms and feelings, leisure, work and school, and treatment). Each item uses a scale from 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much), with a total score being the sum of each question. The higher the total score the more a patient's life is affected by their skin condition.
Measured: Week 16
[Period 1] Absolute change from baseline in Patient's Global Assessment of Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS-PtGA) score at Week 16
The HS-PtGA is a single item measure that asks the individual to rate the overall impact of HS on their quality of life, capturing their comprehensive perception of disease severity and treatment response.
Measured: Week 16
[Period 1] Absolute change from baseline in Skin Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at Week 16
The Skin Pain NRS is a single-item measure in which the participant rates the worst level of skin pain in the previous 24 hours on a scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable).
Measured: Week 16
[Period 1] Safety and tolerability of tibulizumab
Assessed by the incidence of all treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), as well as changes from baseline in vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters, and laboratory results.
Measured: Week 16
