Description

Inclusion Criteria:

Subjects with moderate to severe HS as defined by a HSSI > 8 AND at least ONE of the following:

  1. HS >1 year duration with multiple ER or doctors visits related to HS
  2. Intralesional kenalog injection >5/year, however none within 2 weeks of entry
  3. Failed systemic retinoids, but not within 3 months of entry
  4. Failed at least one prior course of antibiotic therapy, which must not have been administered within 2 weeks of entry to the study (excluding the recommended antibiotic regimen given for evidence of active infection immediately before enrollment)

  6. Have a history of lymphoproliferative disease, including lymphoma or signs suggestive of possible lymphoproliferative disease such as lymphadenopathy of unusual size or location (e.g., nodes in the posterior triangle of the neck, infraclavicular, epitrochlear, or periaortic area), or splenomegaly.
