Inclusion criteria
- {"criterion_text":"- Participant must provide written informed consent.\n- Participant is willing and able to comply with the protocol requirements for the duration of the trial.\n- Participant can be male or female and must be between the ages of 18 and 80 years, inclusive, at Screening.\n- Participant must have a clinical diagnosis of Graves’ disease associated with active TED with a CAS ≥ 3 (on the 7-item scale) for the most severely affected eye at Screening and Baseline.\n- Participant must have moderate-to-severe active TED (not sight-threatening but has an appreciable impact on daily life), usually associated with 1 or more of the following: lid retraction ≥ 2 mm, moderate or severe soft tissue involvement and/or inconstant or constant diplopia.\n- Participant has proptosis ≥ 3 mm from Baseline (prior to diagnosis of TED), as estimated by treating physician, and/or proptosis ≥ 3 mm above normal for race and gender.\n- Participant had onset of active TED symptoms (as determined by participant records) within 15 months prior to Baseline.\n- Participants must be euthyroid with the baseline disease under control or have mild hypoor hyperthyroidism (defined as free thyroxine [FT4] and free triiodothyronine [FT3] levels < 50% above or below the normal limits) at Screening.
