HUMIRA is approved for the treatment of moderate to severe
hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) in patients 12 years of age and older.

Primary endpoint in PIONEER I and II trials: Many adults with moderate to severe HS achieved HiSCR at Week 12, defined as ≥50% reduction from baseline in abscess and inflammatory nodule count, with no increase in abscess count and draining tunnel count.2

STUDY DESIGN INTRO

PIONEER I (N=307) and II (N=326) were randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials in adult patients with moderate to severe HS receiving HUMIRA (adalimumab) 40 mg weekly (after initial doses). Primary endpoint: HiSCR at Week 12 (Period A), defined as ≥50% reduction from baseline in abscess and inflammatory nodule count, with no increase in abscess count and draining tunnel count.1,2

Efficacy in adolescents extrapolated from adult data

HUMIRA efficacy in adolescent HS patients is extrapolated from the adult HS patient data based on the likelihood that the disease course and drug effects are similar to that of adults at the same exposure levels determined through pharmacokinetic modeling.1

Primary endpoint in PIONEER I and II trials: 42% (PIONEER I) and 59% (PIONEER II) of HUMIRA-treated adult patients achieved HiSCR at Week 12, vs 26% and 28% on placebo, respectively.1

HUMIRA EW Population: Graph represents HUMIRA EW population of 88 patients who received continuous 40 mg weekly HUMIRA in Periods A and B of PIONEER I or II and in the OLE.

HiSCR (Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response) was defined as ≥ 50% reduction in AN count with no increase in abscess count and no increase in draining tunnel count relative to baseline.

OLE LIMITATIONS: In an open-label extension, there is a potential for enrichment of the long-term data in the remaining patient populations since patients who are unable to tolerate or do not respond to the drug often drop out.

Listen to actual HUMIRA-treated patients describe the impact of HS, and watch HS-treating dermatologists discuss why they choose HUMIRA for moderate to severe HS.

2019 North American HS Clinical Guidelines, level 1 Evidence, Humira received strongest recommendation.

*Strength of Recommendation based on: A – Consistent and good-quality patient-oriented evidence; B – Inconsistent or limited-quality patient-oriented evidence; C – Consensus, opinion, case studies or disease-oriented evidence.

Evidence Grading Level: Level I – Good-quality patient-oriented evidence; Level II – Limited-quality patient-oriented evidence; Level III – Other evidence, including consensus guidelines, opinion, case studies, or disease-oriented evidence.

NOTE: These guidelines reflect the best available efficacy evidence at the time of preparation, but did not include safety considerations and should not be interpreted as setting the standard of care.
