Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if CIT-013 works to treat Hidradenitis Suppurativa in adults. It will also learn about the safety of CIT-013. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does CIT-013 lower the disease activity of HS patients? What medical problems do participants have when receiving CIT-013? Researchers will compare CIT-013 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if CIT-013 works to treat the symptoms of HS. Participants will: Take receive 50 or 100 mg CIT-013 or placebo every other week for 12 weeks Visit the clinic once every 2 weeks for checkups and tests Keep monitor their symptoms during this period
