Inclusion Criteria

1) Subjects must have a documented diagnosis of adult-onset axial Spondyloarthritis (axSpA) with at least 3 months' symptom duration and meet the Assessment of SpondyloArthritis International Society (ASAS) criteria
2) Subjects must have active disease at Screening as defined by
- Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) score >=4
- Spinal pain >= 4 on a 0 to 10 Numerical Rating Scale (NRS; from BASDAI item 2)
- Nonradiographic (Nr)-axSpA subjects must either have C-reactive protein (CRP) > upper limit of normal (ULN) and /or current evidence of sacroiliitis on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (no confirmation by central reading) as defined by ASAS criteria
- Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) subjects must have evidence of sacroiliitis on x-ray meeting the modified New York (mNY) classification criteria according to the Investigator
3) Subjects must have a documented history of Anterior Uveitis (AU) diagnosed by an ophthalmologist and have at least 2 AU flares in the past, of which at least 1 AU flare was in the last 12 months prior to Baseline

- Any condition or complicating factor that may interfere with the AU assessment
- Retisert® or Iluvien® (glucocorticosteroid implant) within 3 years prior to the Baseline Visit or has had complications related to the device
- Subject has had Retisert or Iluvien (glucocorticosteroid implant) removed within 90 days prior to the Baseline Visit
- Intraocular or periocular corticosteroids within 90 days prior to the Baseline visit
- Ozurdex® (dexamethasone implant) within 6 months prior to the Baseline Visit
