If the participant has had a colonoscopy within 1 year of the initial Screening date, a flexible sigmoidoscopy may be used instead.\n- Demonstrated, in the opinion of the investigator, an inadequate response, loss of response, or intolerance/medical contraindication to at least 1 of the following treatments at doses approved for the treatment of UC: oral 5-aminosalicylic acid compounds or sulfasalazine; corticosteroids (eg, prednisone, budesonide); immunosuppressants (eg, azathioprine [AZA], 6-mercaptopurine [6-MP], methotrexate [MTX]); an approved anti-integrin antibody (eg, vedolizumab); an approved anti-interleukin (IL)-12/23 antibody (eg, ustekinumab); an approved anti-IL-23 p19 antibody (eg, risankizumab, guselkumab, or mirikizumab); an approved sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor (S1PR) modulator (eg, ozanimod or etrasimod). Note: Participants who have had an inadequate response to > 1 advanced therapy (eg, anti integrin, anti-IL 12/23, IL-23 p19 antibody, or S1PR modulator) are not eligible.\n- Participant may be receiving a therapeutic dosage of the following drugs: oral 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) compounds or sulfasalazine, prescribed dose must be stable for at least 2 weeks before Screening endoscopy or stopped at least 2 weeks prior to Screening endoscopy; oral corticosteroids - prednisone or equivalent (≤ 20 mg/day) or budesonide (≤9 mg/day) and have been at a stable dose for at least 2 weeks prior to Screening endoscopy or stopped at least 2 weeks prior to Screening endoscopy. Participants who enter the OLE will be required to undergo corticosteroid tapering; immunosuppressants (AZA, 6-MP, MTX) if the prescribed dose has been stable for at least 8 weeks before Screening endoscopy or stopped at least 8 weeks prior to Screening endoscopy"}
