A Study to Assess Disease Activity and Safety of Lutikizumab in Adult and Adolescent Participants With Moderate to Severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa (Intrepid)

June 1, 2026 updated by: AbbVie

A Phase 3 Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Lutikizumab in Adult and Adolescent Subjects With Moderate to Severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic and often painful inflammatory skin disease which includes the forming of lumps, abscesses and scars in areas of the skin such as under the breasts, under armpits, inner thighs, groin and buttocks. This study will compare lutikizumab versus placebo for the treatment of adult and adolescent participants with the signs and symptoms of moderate to severe HS .

Lutikizumab is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of HS. During Period 1 of the study, participants will placed in 1 of 2 groups called treatment arms. There is a 1 in 2 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. Around 1280 adult and adolescent participants with moderate to severe HS will be enrolled in the study at approximately 275 sites world wide. During Period 2, participants that were part of the lutikizumab treatment arm in Period 1 will be re-randomized to 1 of 2 lutikizumab treatment arms. Participants that were part of the Placebo arm in Period 1 will start Period 2 with an initiation of lutikizumab followed by a re-randomization to 1 of 2 lutikizumab treatment arms.

In Period 1, participants will receive subcutaneous injections of lutikizumab or placebo every week for 16 weeks. In Period 2, participants that were randomized to lutikizumab in Period 1 will receive subcutaneous injections of lutikizumab every week or every other week for 36-weeks. Participants that were randomized to the placebo arm in Period 1 will receive subcutaneous injections of lutikizumab every week for 16 weeks, then either every week or every other week for 20 weeks.

Period 3 is the Long Term Extentsion (LTE) and through Week 68, participants will continue to receive lutikizumab SC using the same assigned dosing regimen from the end of Period 2 for 16 weeks followed by open-label lutikizumab EOW for 140 weeks.

Participants in the US that complete Periods 1 & 2 will have the option to enroll in a 156-week open-label Sub-Study that will assess the long term safety and efficacy of lutikizumab in a prefilled pen.

There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during 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 and diaries.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants Achieving Hidradenitis Suppurative Clinical Response (HiSCR) 75
Time Frame: At Week 16
HiSCR 75 is defined as at least a 75% reduction from baseline 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.
At Week 16
Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs)
Time Frame: Up to Approximately Week 62
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.
Up to Approximately Week 62

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants Achieving Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) 30 among Participants with Baseline NRS >=3
Time Frame: At Week 8
NRS 30 is defined as at least a 30% reduction and at least 1-unit reduction from Baseline in worst skin pain (maximal daily pain), as assessed by the Patient's Global Assessment (PGA) of Skin Pain.
At Week 8
Change from Baseline in Hidradenitis Suppurativa Impact Assessment (HSIA)
Time Frame: At Week 16
The HSIA is an 18-item PRO questionnaire developed to assess the impact of HS on the daily lives of subjects in the 7 days prior to the assessment. Items 1 - 16 of the HSIA are scored on a 0 to 10 NRS, where 0 represents no impact and 10 represents extreme impact.
At Week 16
Change from Baseline in Hidradenitis Suppurativa Symptom Assessment (HSSA) Worst Drainage Score
Time Frame: At Week 16
The HSSA (24-hour recall) is a 9-item PRO questionnaire developed to assess the primary symptoms of Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) in the 7 consecutive days prior to assessments. Each item of the HSSA is scored on an 11-point (0 to 10) NRS, where 0 represents no symptoms and 10 represents extreme symptom experience.
At Week 16
Percentage of Participants Achieving HiSCR 90
Time Frame: At Week 16
HiSCR 90 is defined as at least a 90% reduction from baseline 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.
At Week 16
Change from Baseline in the Patient's Global Assessment of HS-related Skin Pain (NRS)
Time Frame: At Week 8
At Week 8
Change from Baseline in HSSA
Time Frame: At Week 16
The HSSA (24-hour recall) is a 9-item PRO questionnaire developed to assess the primary symptoms of Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) in the 7 consecutive days prior to assessments. Each item of the HSSA is scored on an 11-point (0 to 10) NRS, where 0 represents no symptoms and 10 represents extreme symptom experience.
At Week 16
Change from Baseline in the Patient's Global Assessment of HS-related Odor (smell), based on the HSSA Question 8
Time Frame: At Week 16
The HSSA (24-hour recall) is a 9-item PRO questionnaire developed to assess the primary symptoms of HS in the 7 consecutive days prior to assessments. Each item of the HSSA is scored on an 11-point (0 to 10) NRS, where 0 represents no symptoms and 10 represents extreme symptom experience.
At Week 16
Percentage of Participants with an Occurrence of HS Flare in Period 1
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 16
HS Flare is defined as at least one occurrence of a ≥ 25% increase in AN count with a minimum absolute increase of 2 relative to Baseline.
Baseline to Week 16
Change from Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) among participants ≥ 16 years of age at Baseline
Time Frame: At Week 16
DLQI (Dermatology Life Quality Index) assesses symptoms and impacts of dermatologic diseases on quality of life. DLQI scores range from 0 (no effect) to 30 (very large effect), with a higher score indicating a more impaired quality of life.
At Week 16
Change from Baseline in number of Draining Fistulas Count among participants with at least 1 draining fistula at Baseline
Time Frame: At Week 16
At Week 16
Change from Baseline in Hidradenitis Suppurativa Impact Assessment (HSIA) Emotional Domain
Time Frame: At Week 16
At Week 16
Change from Baseline in HSIA Mobility Domain
Time Frame: at Week 16
at Week 16

YES

IPD Plan Description

AbbVie is committed to responsible data sharing regarding the clinical trials we sponsor. This includes access to anonymized, individual and trial-level data (analysis data sets), as well as other information (e.g., protocols, analyses plans, clinical study reports), as long as the trials are not part of an ongoing or planned regulatory submission. This includes requests for clinical trial data for unlicensed products and indications.
