8. Participants whose complication of colon cancer or dysplasia had to be ruled out by total colonoscopy at the start of the study drug administration (or the results from total colonoscopy performed within 1 year before giving consent are available), if participants met any of the following criteria; participants with >=8-year history of total or left-sided colitis, participants aged >=50 years, or participants with a first-degree family history of colon cancer.
