Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Signed informed consent must be obtained prior to participation in the study. For participants aged ≥ 12 to < 18 years: parent’s or legal guardian’s signed written informed consent and child’s assent, if appropriate, must be obtained before any assessment is performed. Of note, if the participant reaches age of consent (age as per local law) during the study, they will also need to sign the corresponding study Informed Consent Form (ICF) at the next study visit.
  • Male and female participants ≥ 12 years of age at the time of signing of the informed consent forms.
  • Diagnosis of Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) based on clinical history and physical examination for at least 6 months prior to the Baseline visit.
  • Participants with moderate to severe HS at baseline defined as: • A total of at least 5 AN, i.e. abscesses and/or inflammatory nodules AND • Inflammatory lesions should affect at least 2 distinct anatomic areas (e.g., left and right axillae)

You likely can't join if

  • Presence of more than 20 fistulae/tunnels (both draining and non-draining) in total at baseline.
  • History of hypersensitivity to any of the study drug constituents.
  • Known or suspected infectious disease that is active, chronic or recurrent which precludes the participant from participating in the trial as per investigator's assessment. These infectious diseases include and are not limited to opportunistic infections (e.g., tuberculosis, atypical mycobacterioses, listeriosis or aspergillosis) and/or known or suspected Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection. Should it be required by local regulations and/or considered appropriate by the investigator, an HIV test can be performed to confirm eligibility.
  • History of live attenuated vaccine administration within 6 weeks prior to randomization or requirement to receive these vaccinations at any time while on study treatment
  • Major surgery within 8 weeks prior to screening or planned surgery for the duration of the study.
  • Any active skin disease or conditions that may interfere with the assessment of HS.

  • Any active skin disease or conditions that may interfere with the assessment of HS.
  • Previous exposure to remibrutinib or other BTK inhibitors.
  • Use of other investigational drugs within 5 half-lives, or within 30 days (for small molecules) prior to randomization, or until the pharmacodynamic effect has returned to baseline (for biologics), whichever is longer.
  • Significant bleeding risk or coagulation disorders
  • History of gastrointestinal bleeding.
  • Requirement for anti-platelet (except for acetylsalicylic acid up to 100 mg/d or clopidogrel up to 75 mg/d) or anti-coagulant medication.
  • History or current hepatic disease.
  • Evidence of clinically significant cardiovascular, neurological, psychiatric, pulmonary, renal, hepatic, endocrine, metabolic, hematological disorders, gastrointestinal disease or immunodeficiency that, in the Investigator's opinion, would compromise the safety of the participant, interfere with the interpretation of the study results or otherwise preclude participation or protocol adherence of the participant.
