Inclusion criteria

* Must have completed the dosing planned in the primary pediatric ustekinumab study * Benefit of continued ustekinumab therapy (that is, a clinical response or clinical remission as defined in the primary study at the final efficacy visit of the primary study) * Parent(s) (preferably both if available or as per local requirements), legal guardian(s) or their legally acceptable representative must sign an informed consent form (ICF) indicating that he or she understands the purpose of, and procedures required for, the study and is willing to allow the child to participate in the study. Assent is also required of children capable of understanding the nature of the study (typically 7 years of age and older) as described in Informed Consent Process. An adolescent who signs the assent form will be given the opportunity to sign an adult ICF at a later visit when they reach the age of majority during the study to indicate that he or she understands the purpose of, and procedures required for, the study and is willing to participate in the study * Must be willing and able to adhere to the lifestyle restrictions specified in this protocol * Females of childbearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test at enrollment and prior to study intervention administration

Exclusion criteria

* Are pregnant, nursing, or planning pregnancy or fathering a child * Have had any of (a) confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2 \[COVID-19\]) infection (test positive), or (b) suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection (clinical features without documented test results), or (c) close contact with a person with known or suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection: Exception: (i) may be included with a documented negative result for a validated SARS-CoV-2 test: obtained at least 2 weeks after conditions (a), (b), (c) above (timed from resolution of key clinical features if present, example, fever, cough, dyspnea) and (ii) with absence of all conditions (a), (b), (c) above during the period between the negative test result and the baseline study visit * Taken any disallowed therapies as noted in the primary study, before the planned first long-term extension (LTE) dose of study intervention * Any condition for which, in the opinion of the investigator, participation would not be in the best interest of the participant (example, compromise the well-being) or that could prevent, limit, or confound the protocol-specified assessments * Participants who receive a live vaccination may be permitted to remain in the study, if approved by the sponsor and study intervention is held for a period of time specified by the sponsor. Receipt of a live severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) vaccine (against the virus that causes Coronavirus Disease 2019 \[COVID-19\]) is not automatically an exclusion criterion and must be discussed with the medical monitor

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)Up to 6 years and 4 monthsAn AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/ biological agent under study.
Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)Up to 6 years and 4 monthsA SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.
Number of Participants with AEs Leading to Discontinuation of Study InterventionUp to 6 years and 4 monthsNumber of participants with AEs leading to discontinuation of study intervention will be reported.
Number of Participants with AEs of InterestUp to 6 years and 4 monthsNumber of participants with AEs of special interest (any newly identified malignancy case of active tuberculosis \[TB\], or opportunistic infection occurring after the first administration of study intervention\[s\]) will be reported.
Number of Participants with Abnormalities in Clinical Laboratory ParametersUp to 6 years and 4 monthsNumber of participants with abnormalities in clinical laboratory parameters (such as hematology and serum chemistry) will be reported.
Number of Participants with Injection-site ReactionsUp to 6 years and 4 monthsNumber of participants with injection-site reactions will be reported. An injection-site reaction is any adverse reaction at a subcutaneous (SC) study intervention injection-site.
Number of Participants With AEs of Worsening of the DiseaseUp to 6 years and 4 monthsNumber of participants with AEs of worsening of the disease will be reported.
Number of Participants With Concomitant Therapy due to Loss of ResponseUp to 6 years and 4 monthsNumber of participants with concomitant therapy due to loss of response will be reported.
