Does CIT-013 lower the disease activity of HS patients? What medical problems do participants have when receiving CIT-013? Researchers will compare CIT-013 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if CIT-013 works to treat the symptoms of HS.
Participants will:
Take receive 50 or 100 mg CIT-013 or placebo every other week for 12 weeks Visit the clinic once every 2 weeks for checkups and tests Keep monitor their symptoms during this period
