Group Intervention Description Induction Study 1: Icotrokinra Dose 1 Icotrokinra Participants will receive Icotrokinra dose 1 in Induction Study 1 up to Week 12. Subsequent treatment will be determined by the participant's response status at Week 12. Induction Study 1: Icotrokinra Dose 2 Icotrokinra Participants will receive Icotrokinra dose 2 in Induction Study 1 up to Week 12. Subsequent treatment will be determined by the participant's response status at Week 12. Induction Study 1: Placebo Placebo Participants will receive matching placebo in Induction Study 1 up to Week 12. Subsequent treatment will be determined by the participant's response status at Week 12. Induction Study 2: Icotrokinra Icotrokinra Participants will receive Icotrokinra at the dose regimen determined in Induction Study 1 up to Week 12. Subsequent study treatment will be determined by the participant's response status at Week 12. Induction Study 2: Placebo Placebo Participants will receive matching placebo for up to Week 12. Subsequent study treatment will be determined by the participant's response status at Week 12. Maintenance Study: Icotrokinra Dose 1 Icotrokinra Participants who were receiving icotrokinra in either induction studies 1 or 2 and were in response at Week 12 of the induction study will be randomized to receive icotrokinra maintenance dose 1. Participants receiving Icotrokinra Dose 1 and meeting criteria for loss of response during the Maintenance Study will be eligibile for a single blinded dose adjustment to Icotrokinra Dose 2. After completion of the Maintenance Study through Week 40, eligible participants can participate in long-term extension (LTE). Maintenance Study: Icotrokinra Dose 2 Icotrokinra Participants who were receiving icotrokinra in either induction studies 1 or 2 and were in response at Week 12 of the induction study will be randomized to receive icotrokinra maintenance dose 2. Participants who were non-responders at Week 12 of the induction studies will also receive icotrokinra maintenance dose 2 but will not be randomized. After completion of the Maintenance Study through Week 40, eligible participants can participate in LTE. Maintenance Study: Placebo Icotrokinra Participants who were receiving icotrokinra in either induction studies 1 or 2 and were in response at Week 12 will be randomized to receive placebo. Participants receiving placebo in induction studies 1 or 2 and in response at Week 12 of the induction study will continue to receive placebo during maintenance on non-randomized basis. Placebo non-responders from induction study will receive icotrokinra maintenance dose 2 on a non-randomized basis and will be assessed for response at Week 12. Participants receiving placebo and meeting criteria for loss of response during the Maintenance Study will be eligible for a single blinded dose adjustment to icotrokinra dose 2. After completion of the Maintenance Study through Week 40, eligible participants can participate in LTE. Maintenance Study: Placebo Placebo Participants who were receiving icotrokinra in either induction studies 1 or 2 and were in response at Week 12 will be randomized to receive placebo. Participants receiving placebo in induction studies 1 or 2 and in response at Week 12 of the induction study will continue to receive placebo during maintenance on non-randomized basis. Placebo non-responders from induction study will receive icotrokinra maintenance dose 2 on a non-randomized basis and will be assessed for response at Week 12. Participants receiving placebo and meeting criteria for loss of response during the Maintenance Study will be eligible for a single blinded dose adjustment to icotrokinra dose 2. After completion of the Maintenance Study through Week 40, eligible participants can participate in LTE.
