About this trial
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of LAD328 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.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Male or female between 18 and 65 years old inclusive.
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 visits, with a clinical history 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 visits.
History of inadequate response, or intolerance or contraindication, to a course of a systemic antibiotics for treatment of HS at the Screening visit.
Disqualifiers
HS with >20 draining tunnels either at the Screening or Baseline visits.
Ongoing medical conditions (e.g., inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and sarcoidosis) requiring systemic immunosuppressive/immunomodulating treatments (e.g., methotrexate, ciclosporin, corticosteroids, cytokine-targeted therapy and JAK inhibitors) during the trial.
Known or suspected hypersensitivity to trial product or any of its excipients.
Hypersensitivity or systemic reaction to a prior biologic (antibody-based) therapy (regardless of indication), that was clinically significant, as per judgment of Investigator.
