What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Remission

    Measured: At Week 12

Secondary outcomes (17)
  1. Change From Baseline in Stool Frequency Subscore (SFS)

    The Stool Frequency Subscore (SFS) is measured on a scale from 0 (normal number of stools) to 3 (5 or more stools than normal)

    Measured: From Baseline up to Week 12

  2. Change From Baseline in Rectal Bleeding Subscore (RBS)

    The Rectal Bleeding Subscore (RBS) is measured on a scale from 0 (no blood seen) to 3 (blood alone passed)

    Measured: From Baseline up to Week 12

  3. Percentage of Participants With Symptomatic Response

    Measured: At Week 4

  4. Percentage of Participants With Endoscopic Improvement

    Measured: At Week 12 and Week 24

  5. Percentage of Participants With Endoscopic Remission

    Measured: At Week 12 and Week 24

  6. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Response

    Measured: At Week 12

  7. Percentage of Participants With Histologic-Endoscopic Mucosal Improvement

    Measured: At Week 12 and Week 24

  8. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Remission

    Measured: At Week 24

  9. Percentage of Participants With Maintenance of Remission

    Measured: At Week 12 and Week 24

  10. Percentage of Participants With Histologic Improvement

    Measured: At Week 24

  11. Change From Baseline in Bowel Urgency

    Bowel urgency will be assessed using two self-reported items over the past 24 hours: presence of bowel urgency (Yes/No) and severity on an 11-point numerical rating scale from 0 (no urgency) to 10 (worst possible urgency)

    Measured: From Baseline through Week 12 and Week 24

  12. Change From Baseline in Abdominal Pain

    Abdominal pain will be assessed using two self-reported items over the past 24 hours: presence of abdominal pain (Yes/No) and severity on an 11-point numerical rating scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain)

    Measured: From Baseline through Week 12 and Week 24

  13. Change From Baseline in Fatigue

    Change in fatigue will be assessed by Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT)-Fatigue scale. FACIT-Fatigue is a 13-item self-reported assessment of the level and impact of fatigue. The overall FACIT-Fatigue score ranges between 0 and 52, with higher scores associated with better quality of life concerns related to fatigue

    Measured: From Baseline through Week 12 and Week 24

  14. Change From Baseline in Health-Related Quality of Life

    Change in health-related quality of life will be assessed by Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) score. IBDQ is a 32-item self-reported assessment of health-related quality of life in participants with inflammatory bowel disease. The overall IBDQ score ranges from 32 to 224, with higher scores associated with better health-related quality of life

    Measured: From Baseline through Week 12 and Week 24

  15. Change From Baseline in Overall UC Symptoms

    Change in overall UC symptoms will be assessed by Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC). PGIC measures overall change in ulcerative colitis symptoms from "Much better" to "Much worse"

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2, Week 12 and Week 24

  16. Change From Baseline in Overall Severity in UC Symptoms

    Change in overall severity of UC symptoms will be assessed by Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGIS). PGIS measures severity of ulcerative colitis symptoms from "None" to "Very severe"

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2, Week 12 and Week 24

  17. Incidence and Severity of Adverse Events (AEs)

    Measured: From Baseline up to approximately 42 Weeks
