Change From Baseline in AN Count at Week 16: Placebo-Controlled Period Primary · Baseline, Week 16

The AN count was defined as the sum of the number of abscesses and inflammatory nodules from all locations.

GroupValue95% CI
Placebo-Controlled Period: Imsidolimab 400/200 mg-5.9± 6.05
Placebo-Controlled Period: Imsidolimab 200/100 mg-4.1± 4.63

Placebo-Controlled Period: Placebo-41.2± 43.69
Number of Participants Achieving Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response 50 (HiSCR50): Placebo-Controlled Period Secondary · Week 16

The number of participants with at least a 50% decrease from Baseline AN count, and no increase in abscesses or draining fistulas in comparison to baseline (HiSCR50) at Week 16 was calculated for each treatment group as follows: A responder HiSCR50 was defined as a participant with 1. at least a 50% decrease in AN count from Baseline, and 2. no increase in abscess count relative to Baseline, and 3. no increase in draining fistula count relative to Baseline

Change From Baseline in Worst HS Pain NRS Score at Week 16: Placebo-Controlled Period Secondary · Baseline, Week 16

Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs): Placebo-Controlled Period Secondary · From first dose (placebo-controlled period) up to Week 16

An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant temporally associated with the use of a study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. An AE was considered treatment-emergent if the date of onset was during or after first dose of study treatment during placebo-controlled period, or if the AE present at baseline worsened in either intensity or frequency after first dose of study treatment.

Number of Participants With TEAEs: Extension and Follow-up Period Secondary · From first dose (extension period) up to Week 40

An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant temporally associated with the use of a study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. An AE was considered treatment-emergent if the date of onset was during or after first dose of study treatment in extension period, or if the AE present at baseline worsened in either intensity or frequency after first dose of study treatment.
