Inclusion criteria

* Signed informed consent form 18 years of age or older * Documented diagnosis of ulcerative colitis (UC) of at least 12 weeks prior to screening * Moderately to severely active UC as per the modified Mayo score * Demonstrated inadequate response to or intolerance of conventional therapy and/or advanced therapy as defined in the protocol

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants with Clinical Response at Week 12Week 12Clinical response is defined as decrease from baseline in the modified Mayo score by greater than or equal to (\>=) 30 percent (%) and \>=2 points, with either a \>=1-point decrease from baseline in the rectal bleeding subscore or a rectal bleeding subscore of 0 or 1.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants with Clinical Remission at Week 12Week 12Clinical remission is defined as stool frequency subscore of 0 or 1, where the stool frequency subscore has not increased from baseline, a rectal bleeding subscore of 0, and an endoscopy subscore of 0 or 1.
Percentage of Participants with Symptomatic Remission at Week 12Week 12Symptomatic remission is defined as stool frequency subscore of 0 or 1, where the stool frequency subscore has not increased from baseline, and a rectal bleeding subscore of 0.
Percentage of Participants with Endoscopic Improvement at Week 12Week 12Endoscopic improvement is defined as an endoscopy subscore of 0 or 1.
Percentage of Participants with Histologic-endoscopic Mucosal Improvement at Week 12Week 12Histologic-endoscopic mucosal improvement is defined as a combination of histologic remission and endoscopic improvement. Histologic remission and endoscopic improvement are based on the histologic grading and the Mayo endoscopy subscore.
Percentage of Participants with Adverse Events (AE) and Serious Adverse Evets (SAEs)Up to Week 76An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a pharmaceutical (investigational or non-investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the intervention. A SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death; is life-threatening; requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; is a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product; is medically important.
