Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) [ Time Frame: Up to 12 weeks ]
    TEAE is defined as any adverse event either reported for the first time or worsening of a pre-existing event after first dose of study drug. Grading was performed using guidance from the CTCAE v 4.03. A grade 3 and above would constitute as "severe".


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Apparent Oral Clearance of INCB054707 [ Time Frame: Predose Day 1, Week 4, and 8, Postdose Day1, week 2,4,6, and 8 ]
    To determine the systemic exposure to INCB054707. Dependent upon the final compartmental model describing INCB054707.

  2. Apparent Oral Volume of Distribution of INCB054707 [ Time Frame: Predose Day 1, Week 4, and 8, Postdose Day1, week 2,4,6, and 8 ]
    To determine the systemic exposure to INCB054707. Dependent upon the final compartmental model describing INCB054707.

  3. Proportion of Participants Achieving a Hidradenitis Suppurativa Clinical Response (HiSCR) at Each Visit [ Time Frame: Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, Early Termination and Follow-up (Up to 3 months) ]
    HiSCR defined as at least 50% reduction in abscess and inflammatory nodule (AN) count with no increase in abscess count and no increase in draining fistula count relative to baseline.

  4. Proportion of Participants Achieving an AN Count of 0 to 2 at Each Visit [ Time Frame: Baseline,Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, Early Termination and Follow-up (Up to 3 months) ]
    AN defined as abscess and inflammatory nodule count.

  5. Mean Change From Baseline in the Hidradenitis Suppurativa Pain Numeric Rating Scale (HS Pain NRS) Scores at Each Visit [ Time Frame: Baseline,Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, Early Termination and Follow-up (Up to 3 months) ]
    An 11-point scale used to assess the worst skin pain and the average skin pain due to HS. Skin pain ranges from 0 ("no skin pain") to 10 ("skin pain as bad as you can imagine").

  6. Mean Change From Baseline in the Modified Sartorius Scale Score [ Time Frame: From baseline up to week 8 ]
    The Sartorius Scale is used to quantify the severity of HS. Points are awarded for 12 body areas (left and right axillae, left and right sub/inframammary areas, intermammary area, left and right buttocks, left and right inguino-crural folds, perianal area, perineal area, and other). For each area, points are awarded for nodules (2 points for each); abscesses (4 points); fistulas (4 points); scars (1 point); longest distance between two lesions (2-6 points, 0 if no lesions); and if lesions are separated buy normal skin (yes-0 point; no-6 points). The total Sartorius Scale score is the sum of the 12 regional scores. Scale scores range from 0 to infinite, with larger scores representing higher severity of HS.

  7. Mean Change From Baseline in the Number of Draining Fistulas Count at Each Visit. [ Time Frame: Baseline,Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and Follow-up (Up to 3 months) ]
    Defined as fistulas that drain serous or purulent fluid, either spontaneously or by gentle palpation.

  8. Proportion of Participants at Each Category of Hurley Stage [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 8 ]

    The Hurley classification is a static score and was originally designed for selection of the appropriate treatment modality in a certain body region. The assessor determines the Hurley stage in each affected anatomical region. If more than 1 stage is present in the same region, the worst stage in that region is documented. The participant will be assigned an overall Hurley stage classification corresponding to the stage of the worst involved anatomical region. The definition of each Hurley stage is as follows:

    Stage I : Abscess formation, single or multiple, without sinus tracts and cicatrization (scarring).

    Stage II : One or more widely separated recurrent abscesses with tract formation and cicatrization (scarring).

    Stage III : Multiple interconnected tracts and abscesses across the entire area, with diffuse or near diffuse involvement.


  9. Proportions of Participants in Each HS Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Category During the Treatment Period [ Time Frame: Up to 12 weeks ]
    The HS-PGIC consists of 1 self-administered item that assesses change in the severity of skin in the HS area. The participant will answer the following: Since your last visit, your HS is: (1) very much improved, (2) much improved, (3) minimally improved, (4) no change, (5) minimally worse, (6) much worse, or (7) very much worse.

  10. Actual Measurements in HS-PGIC at Each Visit [ Time Frame: Up to 12 weeks ]
    The HS-PGIC consists of 1 self-administered item that assesses change in the severity of skin in the HS area. The participant will answer the following: Since your last visit, your HS is: (1) very much improved, (2) much improved, (3) minimally improved, (4) no change, (5) minimally worse, (6) much worse, or (7) very much worse.

  11. Proportion of Participants With Change From Baseline Hurley Stage [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 8 ]

    The Hurley classification is a static score and was originally designed for selection of the appropriate treatment modality in a certain body region. The assessor determines the Hurley stage in each affected anatomical region. If more than 1 stage is present in the same region, the worst stage in that region is documented. The participant will be assigned an overall Hurley stage classification corresponding to the stage of the worst involved anatomical region. The definition of each Hurley stage is as follows:

    Stage I : Abscess formation, single or multiple, without sinus tracts and cicatrization (scarring).

    Stage II : One or more widely separated recurrent abscesses with tract formation and cicatrization (scarring).

    Stage III : Multiple interconnected tracts and abscesses across the entire area, with diffuse or near diffuse involvement.
