Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Clinical Responder Rate at Period 1: Week 16
Proportion of study participants achieving a clinical response in Hidradenitis Suppurativa - Physician Global Assessment (HS-PGA) score An HS-PGA responder in period 1 was a participant who had an initial HS-PGA score of at least 3 at baseline (Day 1, inclusion criterion) that decreased by at least 2 points. The six-point Physician Global Assessment (PGA) (scores range from 0-5) based on the number of HS lesions ranges from clear to very severe.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Clinical Responder Rate Period 1 at Week 2, 4, 8 and 12
Proportion of study participants achieving a clinical response in Hidradenitis Suppurativa - Physician Global Assessment (HS-PGA) score A HS-PGA responder in Period 1 is a study participant who had an initial HS-PGA score of at least 3 at Baseline (Day 1, inclusion criterion) that decreased by at least 2 points. The six-point Physician Global Assessment (PGA) (scores range from 0-5) based on the number of HS lesions ranges from clear to very severe.
Pharmacokinetics (PK): Ctrough for CJM112 Period 1 and Period 2
Ctrough is the serum concentration that is just prior to the beginning of, or at the end, of a dosing interval (mass/volume) for Period 1 (week 16) and Period 2/End of Study (week 44)
Pharmacokinetic Profile: T1/2 The Terminal Elimination Half-life for Period 1 & Period 2/End of Study
T1/2 The terminal elimination half-life for Period 1 (Week 16) and Period 2/End of Study (Week 44)
Immunogenicity - Incidence of ADA-positive and ADA-negative in Participants With or Without Pre-existing Antibodies in Period 1 and Period 2/End of Study
Immunogenicity - Incidence of semi-quantitative determination of anti-CJM112 antibodies or ADAs. ADA-positive and ADA-negative in participants with or without pre-existing antibodies Period 1 (week 16) and Period 2/End of Study (week 44)
Total Interleukin-17A (IL-17A Homodimer) in Serum at Pre-dose and Post-dose for Period 1 & Period 2
Total Interleukin-17A (IL-17A homodimer) in serum at Pre-dose Period 1 (Day 1) & Pre-dose Period 2 (Day 113) and Post-dose Period 1 (Day 99) and Post-dose Period 2 (Day 211)
