Total estimated treatment BSA > 20% at screening and baseline.
Agreement to not use topical or systemic antibiotics for treatment of HS during the Maximal Use Treatment Period.
Disqualifiers
Current or history of skin condition(s) other than HS that might confound the evaluation of HS; clinically uncontrolled cardiovascular disease; thrombosis; certain cancers; certain infections; severe anemia, thrombocytopenia, or neutropenia; other medical conditions at the discretion of the investigator.
