This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical study of ORKA-002 in adult participants with moderate-to-severe HS.
The study will evaluate an induction dosing regimen of ORKA-002 administered every 4 weeks for 12 weeks compared with placebo during a double-blind induction period through Week 16. This will be followed by an open-label maintenance period, during which ORKA-002 will be administered every 12 weeks. The study will consist of four periods: * Screening Period * Induction Period (double-blind) * Maintenance Period (open-label) * Post-Treatment Follow-Up Period
