Show all 15 criteriaShow less
Who can take part
- Aged greater than or equal to (>=) 18 to less than or equal to (<=) 65 years
- A diagnosis of moderate-to-severe HS defined as a total of >= 5 inflammatory lesions (i.e., number of abscesses plus number of inflammatory nodules) at both the Screening and Baseline/Day 1 visits, with signs and symptoms of HS for at least 6 months
- HS lesions present in at least 2 distinct anatomic areas (e.g., 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 contraindication to a course of a systemic antibiotics for treatment of HS at the screening visit
- Regular use of over-the-counter topical antiseptics on HS lesions and agrees to regular use, throughout the entirety of the study
- Participants who are women of child-bearing potential (WOBCP) and male participants must agree to the requirements for the avoidance of pregnancy and exposure of the participant's partner to LAD191 during the study
Who cannot take part
- Hypersensitivity or systemic reaction to a prior biologic (antibody-based) therapy, regardless of indication, that was clinically significant, as per the Investigator's judgment
- Prior treatment with LAD191
- Live or attenuated vaccinations 4 weeks prior to Baseline/Day 1 or is planning to receive any such vaccine during the study
- Intention to use any concomitant medication or therapy that is not permitted by this protocol or failure to meet the required washout period for a particular prohibited medication prior to Baseline/Day 1
- Ongoing medical conditions requiring systemic immunosuppressive/immunomodulating treatments during the study
- Known hypersensitivity to LAD191 or any of its excipients
- Known hypersensitivity to adalimumab or biosimilar or any of its excipients or meeting any warning or contraindication to adalimumab treatment as per the approved product information, and as per the Investigator's judgment
- HS with >20 draining tunnels at the Screening or Baseline/Day 1 visit
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or women planning to become pregnant or breastfeed during the study

About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
The main purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of multiple dosing regimens of LAD191 compared to placebo in participants with moderate-to-severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) and to access the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and immunogenicity in participants with moderate-to-severe HS.
The 5 groups in the trial
- LAD191 Dose ATreatment being tested
Participants will receive dose A LAD191 subcutaneous (SC) injection during both Treatment Period 1 and Treatment Period 2, unless if Dose A is eliminated after interim analysis, participants will receive the highest available dose of LAD191 during Treatment Period 2.
Treatment: LAD191
- LAD191 Dose BTreatment being tested
Participants will receive dose B LAD191 SC injection during both Treatment Period 1 and Treatment Period 2, unless if Dose B is eliminated after interim analysis, participants will receive the highest available dose of LAD191 during Treatment Period 2.
Treatment: LAD191
- LAD191 Dose CTreatment being tested
Participants will receive dose C LAD191 SC injection during both Treatment Period 1 and Treatment Period 2, unless if Dose C is eliminated after interim analysis, participants will receive the highest available dose of LAD191 during Treatment Period 2.
Treatment: LAD191
- PlaceboPlacebo, for comparison
Participants will receive matching LAD191 placebo SC injection during Treatment Period 1 and will begin treatment with the highest available dose of LAD191 during Treatment Period 2.
Treatment: LAD191 and Placebo
- AdalimumabExisting treatment, for comparison
Participants will receive adalimumab SC injection during Treatment Period 1 and will begin treatment with the highest available dose of LAD191 during Treatment Period 2.
Treatment: LAD191 and Adalimumab
