Summary

Aim of this double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial is to compare the safety and the efficacy of anakinra over placebo for the management of patients with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) of Hurley II and Hurley III disease stage. Patients will be evaluated on subsequent follow-up visits. Two scores will be applied: disease activity as assessed in the protocol by the investigator; and Sartorius score.
