Primary Outcome Measures :
- Percentage of participants achieving clinical response as measured by Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response 50 (HiSCR50) at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Week 16 ]HiSCR50 is defined as at least a 50% reduction from Baseline in the total abscess and inflammatory nodule (AN) count, with no increase from Baseline in abscess or draining tunnel count.
Secondary Outcome Measures :
- Percentage of participants achieving clinical response as measured by Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response 75 (HiSCR75) at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Week 16 ]HiSCR75 is defined as at least a 75% reduction from Baseline in the total abscess and inflammatory nodule (AN) count, with no increase from Baseline in abscess or draining tunnel count.
- Percentage of participants with Flare by Week 16 [ Time Frame: Week 16 ]Flare is defined as a ≥25% increase in AN count with an absolute increase in AN count of ≥2 relative to Baseline.
- Absolute change from Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Total Score at Week 16 [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to Week 16 ]The DLQI is a skin disease specific questionnaire aimed at the evaluation of how symptoms and treatment affect participants' health related quality of life (QOL). The DLQI total score ranges from 0 to 30 with higher scores indicating lower skin health related QOL.
- Absolute change from Baseline in Skin Pain score at Week 16 [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to Week 16 ]Skin Pain score is assessed by the "worst pain" item (11 point numeric rating scale) in the Hidradenitis Suppurativa Symptom Daily Diary (HSSDD).
- Percentage of participants achieving Skin Pain response at Week 16 [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to Week 16 ]Pain response is defined as a decrease from Baseline in Hidradenitis Suppurativa Symptom Daily Diary (HSSDD) weekly worst skin pain score at or beyond the threshold for within-patient clinically meaningful change.
- Percentage of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) during the study [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) until Safety Follow-Up (up to Week 71) ]An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of investigational medicinal product (IMP), whether or not considered related to the IMP. NOTE: An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of IMP.
- Percentage of participants with serious treatment-emergent adverse events during the study [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) until Safety Follow-Up (up to Week 71) ]
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose:
- Results in death
- Is life-threatening
- Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization
- Results in persistent disability/incapacity
- Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect
- Important medical events
- Percentage of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) leading to withdrawal from the study [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) until Safety Follow-Up (up to Week 71) ]An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of investigational medicinal product (IMP), whether or not considered related to the IMP. NOTE: An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of IMP. TEAEs leading to discontinuation of the study are reported.

- Study participants must have a diagnosis of Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) based on clinical history and physical examination for at least 6 months prior to the Baseline visit
- Study participant must have HS lesions present in at least 2 distinct anatomic areas (eg, left and right axilla), 1 of which must be at least Hurley Stage II or Hurley Stage III at both the Screening and Baseline visits
- Study participant must have moderate to severe HS defined as a total of ≥5 inflammatory lesions (ie, number of abscesses plus number of inflammatory nodules) at both the Screening and Baseline visits
- Study participant must have had an inadequate response to a course of a systemic antibiotic for treatment of HS as assessed by the Investigator through study participant interview and review of medical history
-
A female study participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies:

Exclusion Criteria:
- Draining tunnel count of >20 at the Baseline Visit
- Any other active skin disease or condition (eg, bacterial cellulitis, candida intertrigo, extensive condyloma) that may, in the opinion of the Investigator, interfere with the assessment of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS)
- Study participant has a diagnosis of sarcoidosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, or active inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
- Primary immunosuppressive condition, including taking immunosuppressive therapy following an organ transplant, or has had a splenectomy
- Female who is breastfeeding, pregnant, or plans to become pregnant during the study or within 20 weeks following the final dose of investigational medicinal product (IMP)
- Active infection or history of certain infection(s)
- Active tuberculosis (TB) infection, latent TB infection, high risk of exposure to TB infection, current or history of nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) infection
- Concurrent malignancy. Study participants with a history of malignancy within the past 5 years prior to the Screening Visit are excluded, EXCEPT if the malignancy was a cutaneous squamous or basal cell carcinoma, or in situ cervical cancer that has been treated and is considered cured
- History of a lymphoproliferative disorder including lymphoma or current signs and symptoms suggestive of lymphoproliferative disease
- Known hypersensitivity to any components of bimekizumab or comparative drugs as stated in this protocol this protocol
- Concomitant and prior medication restrictions
- Myocardial infarction or stroke within the 6 months prior to the Screening Visit
- Study participant has the presence of active suicidal ideation, or positive suicide behavior using the "Screening" version of the electronic Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (eC-SSRS)

| Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement: | |
| Plan to Share IPD: | Yes |
| Plan Description: | Data from this trial may be requested by qualified researchers six months after product approval in the US and/or Europe, or global development is discontinued, and 18 months after trial completion. Investigators may request access to anonymized individual patient-level data and redacted trial documents which may include: analysis-ready datasets, study protocol, annotated case report form, statistical analysis plan, dataset specifications, and clinical study report. Prior to use of the data, proposals need to be approved by an independent review panel at www.Vivli.org and a signed data sharing agreement will need to be executed. All documents are available in English only, for a prespecified time, typically 12 months, on a password protected portal. This plan may change if the risk of re-identifying trial participants is determined to be too high after the trial is completed; in this case and to protect participants, individual patient-level data would not be made available. |
