Researchers are evaluating the safety and effects of a medicine called Ritlecitinib for adults with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa HS, a condition that causes long-lasting painful red lumps on the skin. The study focuses on participants who have not responded well to or cannot tolerate antibiotics for HS. This Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to understand how Ritlecitinib compares to placebo in treating this condition. Participants will be randomly assigned to take either Ritlecitinib or a matching placebo by mouth once daily at home. The study includes a loading dose of Ritlecitinib for the first 8 weeks, followed by a maintenance dose for the next 8 weeks, totaling 16 weeks of treatment. The placebo group will follow the same schedule with a pill that looks like the study medicine but contains no active drug. Throughout the study, participants will have about 10 clinic visits over approximately 24 weeks, including screening, Day 1, and follow-ups every 1, 2, or 4 weeks until Week 16. At these visits, health status will be reviewed through physical exams, blood and urine tests, vital signs, chest X-rays, ECGs, hearing tests, and questionnaires. Participants will also record daily medication intake and HS symptoms using a mobile eDiary. Researchers will measure skin response and safety outcomes to assess the effects of the study medicine compared to placebo.
