-Vasculitis with renal, digestive, cardiac, pulmonary, or CNS involvement characterized as severe,
-Active central nervous system (CNS) or peripheral nervous system (PNS) involvement requiring high dose steroids,
-Severe renal involvement defined by objective measures,
-Lymphoma.
-Cardiac heart failure Stage III or IV according to the New York Heart Association.
-Severe pulmonary impairment documented by an abnormal pulmonary function test.
-Serious systemic viral, bacterial or fungal infection (eg, pneumonia, pyelonephritis), infection requiring hospitalization or IV antibiotics or significant chronic viral (including history of recurrent or active herpes zoster), bacterial, or fungal infection (eg, osteomyelitis) 30 days before and during Screening.
-Participants with a history of invasive opportunistic infections, such as, but not limited to histoplasmosis, listeriosis, coccidioidomycosis, candidiasis, pneumocystis jirovecii, and aspergillosis, regardless of resolution.
-Evidence of active or latent tuberculosis (TB) as documented by medical history (eg, chest X rays) and examination, and TB testing: A positive or 2 indeterminate QuantiFERON® TB Gold tests at Screening (regardless of prior treatment status).
-Evidence of any clinically significant, severe or unstable, acute or chronically progressive, uncontrolled infection or medical condition (eg, cerebral, cardiac, pulmonary, renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, neurologic, or any known immune deficiency) or previous, active or pending surgical disorder, or any condition that may affect participant safety in the judgment of the Investigator (including vaccinations which are not updated based on local regulation).

-Any prior history of malignancy or active malignancy, including lymphoproliferative diseases and lymphoma (except successfully treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix, nonmetastatic squamous cell or basal cell carcinoma of the skin) within 5 years prior to Baseline.
-Unstable dose of nonsteroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and/or unstable use of topical and/or pharmacological stimulant treatment for salivary and lacrimal glands 4 weeks before Screening.
-High dose steroids, or a change in steroid dose within 4 weeks prior to Day 1/Randomization or expected
