A Study of Oral Upadacitinib Tablet Compared to Placebo in Adult Participants With Moderate to Severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa to Assess Change in Disease Symptoms

January 10, 2023 updated by: AbbVie

A Phase 2, Multicenter, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind Study to Evaluate Upadacitinib in Adult Subjects With Moderate to Severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory skin disease that causes painful lesions in the axilla (underarm), inguinal (groin) and anogenital (anal and genital) regions. This study will evaluate how well upadacitinib compared to placebo (no medicine) works to treat hidradenitis suppurativa in adult participants with moderate to severe disease. The study will assess change in disease signs and symptoms.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Upadacitinib is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of HS. This study is "double-blinded," which means that neither the trial participants nor the study doctors will know who will be given study drug and who will receive placebo (no medicine). Participants are randomly (by chance) put into 1 of 2 groups, called treatment arms. They are randomized in a 2 to 1 ratio meaning more participants have a chance to receive upadacitinib compared to placebo.

Participants will undergo approximately 35-days of screening followed by a 48-week treatment period and a 30-day follow-up visit after the last dose of study drug for a total study duration of up to 57 weeks. The treatment period will consist of a 12-week placebo-controlled, double-blind period (Period 1) and a 36-week blinded extension period (Period 2).

There may be a higher burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend visits every other week, once a month, or once every 2 months during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants Achieving Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response (HiSCR) at Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline and Week 12
HiSCR is defined as at least a 50% reduction in the total abscess and inflammatory nodule (AN) count with no increase in abscess count and no increase in draining fistula count relative to Baseline.
Baseline and Week 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants Achieving PGA Skin Pain Numeric Rating Scale 30 (NRS30) Response at Week 12 Among Participants With Baseline NRS ≥ 3
Time Frame: Baseline and Week 12

The Patient's Global Assessment (PGA) of Skin Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) was used to assess the worst skin pain due to HS. Participants were asked to rate their worst skin pain in the last 24 hours on an 11-point numerical rating scale ranging from 0 (no skin pain) to 10 (skin pain as bad as you can imagine) on a daily basis using an electronic diary. The weekly average score was calculated based on the daily scores from the 7 days prior to the visit (with non-missing values in 4 or more days of the 7 day period).

NRS30 is defined as the percentage of participants who achieved at least a 30% reduction and at least 1 unit reduction from Baseline in the PGA of skin pain NRS in participants with Baseline skin pain NRS ≥ 3.
