Inclusion criteria

For more information regarding Bristol-Myers Squibb Clinical Trial participation, please visit www.BMSStudyConnect.com Inclusion Criteria: * Must have active ulcerative colitis (UC) extending ≥ 15 cm from the anal verge and confirmed by a screening/baseline colonoscopy/sigmoidoscopy prior to the randomization visit * Must have documented diagnosis of UC of at least 3 months' duration prior to screening * Must have active moderate to severe UC, as defined by a modified Mayo score of 5 to 9 points, inclusive, which includes a stool frequency (SF) subscore of ≥ 2, and a rectal bleeding (RB) subscore ≥ 1, and a screening endoscopic (ES) subscore of ≥ 2

Exclusion criteria

* Previous/current documented diagnosis of CD, indeterminate colitis, ischemic colitis, or pseudomembranous colitis (other than associated with Clostridium difficile \[C. difficile\]) * Stool positive for C. difficile toxin at screening visit * Current or recent (within 12 weeks prior to the randomization visit) evidence of fulminant colitis, abdominal abscess, toxic megacolon, or bowel perforation Other protocol-defined inclusion/

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Clinical Remission Response Rate at Week 12From first dose to 12 weeks.Clinical remission response rate is the percentage of participants achieving clinical remission, defined as absolute total Mayo Score and absolute Mayo endoscopy, stool frequency, rectal bleeding. Will be calculated using a modified Mayo score with the following: Stool Frequency (SF) sub score ≤ 1, with ≥ 1 point decrease from baseline, and Rectal Bleeding (RB) sub score = 0, and Endoscopic (ES) sub score ≤ 1 (modified, excludes friability) The modified Mayo score (0 to 9 points) is the sum of 3 components: the SF, RB, and ES sub scores Modified Mayo Score: The modified Mayo score is a 9-point scale; a score of 5 to 9 points (inclusive), which is required for randomization, denotes moderate to severe disease (by protocol definition). considered in clinical remission if a Mayo Score of less than or equal to 2 with no individual sub score greater than 1

Histological Improvement Response Rate at 12 Weeksup to 12 WeeksHistologic improvement is defined as percentage of participants with a Geboes score of ≤ 3.1 Neutrophils \<5% of crypts, with no crypt destruction, erosions, ulcerations, and granulation tissue. Achieving the following scores for the corresponding grades of the Geboes score: * Score of 0 or 1 for Grade 3 (neutrophils in the epithelium: none or \< 5% crypts involved), and * Score of 0 for Grade 4 (crypt destruction: none), and * Score of 0 Grade 5 (erosion or ulceration: no erosions, ulcerations, or granulation tissue) grade 1 = chronic inflammatory infiltrate; grade 2 = lamina propria neutrophils and eosinophils; grade 3 = neutrophils in the epithelium; grade 4 = crypt destruction; grade 5 = erosions or ulceration. A higher score indicates more severe disease
