About

This is a phase II, multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo parallel-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HB0034 in patients with generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) presenting with an acute flare of moderate to severe intensity.

Full description

GPP patients who are experiencing an acute flare will be screened. Before randomization, the investigator must ensure that the subjects meet all inclusion criteria and do not meet any exclusion criteria.

Subjects will be given a single intravenous infusion of HB0034 or placebo (2:1) on D1 and be hospitalized for at least 8 days after administration of the study drug (including Day 1 for administration). Thereafter, the decision of the patient's discharge will be left at the discretion of the investigator and based on the evolution of the GPP flare and the patient's health status.

Subjects will be followed up to W12-W20.

1. A Generalized Pustular Psoriasis Physician Global Assessment (GPPGA) score of ≥ 3;
2. New appearance or worsening of existing pustules, and a GPPGA pustulation subscore of ≥ 2;
3. ≥ 5% Body Surface Area (BSA) covered with pustules.

Patients with an increased risk of infectious complications as assessed by the investigator (e.g., a recent suppurative infection, any congenital or acquired immunodeficiency, such as HIV infection, prior organ or stem cell transplantation);
Patients who have received a live vaccine or investigational live vaccine within 6 weeks prior to the first dose of the study drug, or plan to receive a live vaccine or participate in a clinical study of investigational live vaccine during the study period or within 6 weeks after completion of administration of the study drug;
