Clinical Study
Testing a Study Drug Upadacitinib for Adults and Adolescents with Abbvie Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Abbvie Hidradenitis Suppurativa is a chronic (continues over time) painful skin condition that occurs in the places where the skin folds on the body. This study will test Upadacitinib to treat adults and adolescents with this disease. The study wants to see if the drug will help people with the disease and is safe. People in the study will be randomly chosen to be treated with Upadacitinib or a placebo. The placebo looks like the drug but does not have the medication. The drug and placebo are taken as a swallowed pill. During the study some participants may switch from taking Upadacitinib or the placebo. Being in the study requires multiple ways of participation such as writing in a journal at home and attending in person at a study clinic for about 2 years. Medical tests will be done during the study to track the health of participants.
