Extension study to assess effects of non-interrupted versus interrupted and long term treatment of two dose regimens on efficacy and safety in subjects with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa
EU CTIS ID: 2023-508956-20-00
What this study is testing
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of secukinumab (300 mg q4w or 300 mg q2w) in subjects with moderate to severe HS who were HiSCR responders at Week 52 of the core studies, with respect to loss of response by Week 104, compared to placebo.
- Therapeutic confirmatory (Phase III)

Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- 1. Written informed consent must be obtained before any assessment is performed
- 2. Subjects who complete the whole study treatment period (52 weeks) in the core studies (CAIN457M2301 or CAIN457M2302) and have received secukinumab treatment during the Treatment Period 2 of the core studies.
You likely can't join if
- 1. A protocol deviation in the core study which, according to the investigator will prevent the meaningful analysis of the extension study for the individual subject.
- 2. Ongoing or planned use of prohibited HS or non-HS treatments. Time of use of prohibited treatments in the core study must continue to be adhered to.
- 3. Subjects not expected to benefit from participation in the extension study, as assessed by the subject and investigator.
- 4. Subjects whose participation in the extension study could expose them to an undue safety risk
- 5. Current severe progressive or uncontrolled disease which in the judgment of the investigator renders the subject unsuitable for the study.
- 6. Underlying conditions (including, but not limited to metabolic, hematologic, renal, hepatic, pulmonary, neurologic, endocrine, cardiac, infectious or gastrointestinal, such as inflammatory bowel disease), which in the opinion of the investigator significantly immunocompromises the patient and/or places the patient at unacceptable risk for receiving an immunomodulatory therapy.

- 7. Plans for administration of live vaccines during the study.
- 8. Women of childbearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, unless they are using methods of contraception during the entire study or longer if required by locally approved prescribing information (e.g. in European Union (EU) 20 weeks). Contraception methods include: Total abstinence, when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. Periodic abstinence (e.g. calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception. Female sterilization (have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy), total hysterectomy or bilateral tubal ligation at least six weeks before taking study treatment. In case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow-up hormone level assessment. Barrier methods of contraception: Condom or Occlusive cap (diaphragm or cervical/vault caps). For United Kingdom: with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/vaginal suppository. Use of oral (estrogen and progesterone), injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception or other forms of hormonal contraception that have comparable efficacy (failure rate <1%), for example hormone vaginal ring or transdermal hormone contraception or placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS).
