Subjects must have read and understood the informed consent form (ICF), must fully understand the requirements of the study, and must be willing to comply with all study visits and assessments; subjects who cannot read or understand the ICF may not be enrolled in the study by a guardian or any other individual. 2) Males between the age of 21 and 65 (inclusive) on the day of signing informed consent 3) Body mass index (kg/m2) of >= 18.5 to determined by the investigator 4) Documented diagnosis of UC or CD of at least 4 months duration. Documentation must include endoscopic and histopathologic documentation, as follows: UC i) Medical record documentation of, or an endoscopy report dated >= 4 months before randomization, which shows features consistent with UC, determined by the procedure performing physician, AND ii) Medical record documentation of, or a histopathology report indicating features consistent with UC as determined by the pathologist, AND Note: Subject also needs to have minimum disease extent of 15 cm from the anal verge CD i) Medical record documentation of, or an ileocolonoscopy (full colonoscopy with intubation of terminal ileum) reported dated >= 4 months before randomization, which shows features consistent with CD, determined by the procedure performing physician, AND ii) Medical record documentation of, or a histopathology report indicating features consistent with, CD as determined by the pathologist 5) Moderately to severely active UC, or moderately to severely active CD, assessed locally and defined by: a) UC i) Mayo Clinic Score >= 6, PGA of 2 or 3, and endoscopic subscore >= 2, at Screening or in the prior 90 days b) CD i) CDAI total score >= 220, AND ii) Evidence of active inflammation, with a total score of >= 6 by the Simple Endoscopic Activity Score in Crohnâ??s Disease (SES-CD), OR if disease is limited to the ileum and/or right colon, a combined SES-CD score >= 4 in these 2 segments, at Screening or in the prior 90 days 6) Previously demonstrated an inadequate clinical response, loss of response to, or intolerance of at least one of the following agents (depending on current country treatment recommendations/guidelines): a) Corticosteroids i) Active disease despite a history of at least an induction regimen of a dose equivalent to prednisone >=20 mg daily for 2 weeks or intravenously (IV) for 1 week, OR ii) Two failed attempts to taper steroids below a dose equivalent of 10 mg daily prednisone, OR iii) History of steroid intolerance including, but not limited to, Cushingâ??s syndrome, osteopenia/osteoporosis, hyperglycemia, insomnia, serious infections, depression, allergic reactions, mood disturbances, or any other condition that contributed to discontinuation of the agent b) Immunomodulators i) Active disease despite a history of at least a 12-week regimen of oral azathioprine (>= 2 mg/kg/day) or 6 MP (>= 1 mg/kg/day), or
