- •Subjects must have had a diagnosis of UC at least 3 months before Screening (confirmed by endoscopy + histology) to be eligible for study participation. For subjects with no documented confirmation of UC diagnosis or if previous diagnosis is not deemed conclusive, UC diagnosis must be confirmed at time of screening colonoscopy. Note that mention of “chronic inflammation” or “ulcerative colitis” or equivalent on histology report is acceptable.
- •Moderately to severely active UC as defined by 3-component Modified Mayo score (3 components of rectal bleeding, stool frequency, and endoscopy) of 4 to 9, inclusive, with Modified Mayo endoscopic subscore ≥ 2 and rectal bleeding subscore ≥
- •Subjects must satisfy at least one of the following criteria: a) In the past, had an inadequate response to one or more of the following treatments: • Oral prednisone ≥ 40 mg/day (or equivalent) or budesonide ≥ 9 mg/day or equivalent or beclomethasone ≥ 5 mg/day for at least 2 weeks • Corticosteroid dependence as defined by failed to successfully taper to < 10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent (i.e., had a flare of disease) within 3 months of starting therapy, or if relapse occurs within 3 months of stopping corticosteroids • Immunosuppressants (azathioprine ≥ 2 mg/kg/day or 6 mercaptopurine ≥ 1.0 mg/kg/day [or documentation of a therapeutic concentration of 6-thioguanine nucleotide]) for at least 8 weeks. Note: a lower dosage of 6-MP or AZA is acceptable if local guidelines specify a different treatment regimen (which would need be documented in the source document) • An approved anti-TNF agent at an approved labeled dose for at least 8 weeks • Vedolizumab at the approved labelled dose for at least 8 weeks • An approved JAK inhibitor (e.g., tofacitinib, upadacitinib, or filgotinib) at an approved labelled dose for at least 8 weeks • An approved anti-IL-12/23 (e.g., ustekinumab) at an approved labelled dose for at least 8 weeks • An approved sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor (S1PR) modulator (e.g., ozanimod) at an approved labelled dose for least 12 weeks OR b) Had been intolerant to one or more of the above-mentioned treatments (e.g., unable to achieve doses or treatment durations because of dose limiting side effects [e.g., leukopenia, psychosis, uncontrolled diabetes, elevated liver enzymes]). OR c) Currently receiving one or more of the following treatments: • Oral Prednisone ≥ 10 mg/day (or equivalent) for at least 3 months • Immunosuppressants [azathioprine ≥ 2 mg/kg/day or 6 mercaptopurine ≥ 1.0 mg/kg/day (or documentation of a therapeutic concentration of 6 thioguanine nucleotide)] for at least 8 weeks. Note: a lower dosage of 6-MP or AZA is acceptable if local guidelines specify a different treatment regimen (which would need be documented in the source document) Notes on subjects who have had prior biologic/biologic-like therapy(ies) (anti-TNF, JAK inhibitor, S1PR modulator, anti-IL-12/23, and/or anti-integrin): • The study will include a maximum of 70% and a minimum of approximately 50% subjects who have had prior biologic/biologic-like therapy(ies) experience. Upon reaching the maximum number of allowed biologic/biologic-like experienced subjects (70%), subjects who have had prior biologic/biologic-like experience will no longer be allowed to enter the study. Upon reaching the maximum number of allowed biologic/biologic-like naïve subjects (approximately 50%), subjects who have never been exposed to a prior biologic/biologic-like will no longer be allowed to enter the study. • Subject cannot have failed (no response, insufficient response, loss of response, and/or intolerance) > 3 classes or > 4 individual biologic/biologic-like therapies (refer to exclusion criterion #26).
- •For subjects who are women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) involved in any sexual intercourse that could lead to pregnancy, the subject has used two highly effective methods of contraception for at least 4 weeks prior to Day 1 and agrees to continue to use two highly effective methods of contraception until at least 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug.
- •Male subjects must use, with their female partner of childbearing potential, two highly effective methods of contraception and refrain from sperm donation from screening to 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug.
