Serious illness requiring systemic treatment and/or hospitalization within 3 Weeks prior to baseline; ? Pregnant or breast-feeding women; ? Illicit drug or alcohol abuse or dependence; ? Use of any investigational or non-registered product within 3 months or within 5 half-lives preceding baseline, whichever is longer, or patient who exceeds the maximal amount of indemnification allowed by the French law (i.e.: 4500€) ; ?

|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective of the study is to determine an optimal ABX464 dose to be used in moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis patients who have failed or are intolerant to immunomodulators, Anti-TNFa, vedolizumab, JAK inhibitors and/or corticosteroids by comparing the mean change from baseline in the MMS at week 8 between each ABX464 group and placebo.;Secondary Objective: ? To evaluate the global effect of ABX464 on MMS at W8 and W16 and on partial Modified Mayo Score (MMS) at every study visit vs placebo. To evaluate the effect of the different dose groups of ABX464 vs placebo: ? on MMS at W16 and on partial MMS at every study visit. ? on clinical remission at W8 and at W16 ? on clinical response at W8 and at W16 ? on endoscopic improvement/remission by segment at W8 and W16 ? on stool and rectal bleeding frequency at every study visit ? on fecal calprotectin and CRP levels at W8 and W16 ? on miR-124 expression in tissue at W8 and W16 and in total blood at every timepoint ? on the rectal/sigmoidal infiltrates using the Robarts Histopathology Index,the Geboes and Nancy Histology Scoring Scales at W8 and W16 ? on Quality of Life measured by the IBDQ at W8 and W16 ? on IL-6,TNFa,IL-1b, IL-10 plasma concentrations at every timepoint ? its safety profile ? To assess the pharmacokinetics of the ABX464 and its main active metabolite ABX464-N-Glu;Primary end point(s): Reduction from baseline in Modified Mayo Score at Week 8.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At Week 8 | — |

Clinical remission, based on the Mayo Scoring system, is defined as a rectal bleeding sub-score = 0 and an Endoscopy sub-score =1 (excluding friability) and at least one-point decrease in stool frequency sub score from baseline to achieve a stool frequency sub-score =1 ? Combined number and rate of patients in clinical remission at Week 8 and at Week 16, per each intervention/treatment group. ? Number and rate of patients with clinical response at Week 8 and Week 16 per intervention/treatment group. Clinical Response is defined as a reduction in Mayo Score of at least 2 points and greater than or equal to 30 percent from baseline with an accompanying decrease in rectal bleeding sub-score of greater than or equal to 1 point or absolute rectal bleeding sub-score of less than or equal to 1 point. ?
