All other participants must have either the Mantoux (purified protein derivative [PPD]) tuberculin skin test or interferon gamma release assay (IGRA) performed.

Participants who have no history of previously diagnosed active or latent tuberculosis are excluded if they have a positive Mantoux (PPD) tuberculin skin test (ie >=5 millimeter [mm] induration) or a positive IGRA (the latter to be tested at the site's local laboratory) during screening or within 12 weeks before screening. If IGRA test cannot be performed locally, a central laboratory may be used, with prior agreement from the sponsor.

Documentation of IGRA product used and the test result must be in the participant's source documentation if performed locally. Acceptable IGRA products include QuantiFERON TB Gold Plus In-Tube Test.
  2. If the results of the IGRA are indeterminate, the test may be repeated, and if a negative result is obtained, enrollment may proceed. In participants with no history of treated active or latent tuberculosis, a positive test on repeat will exclude the participant. Participants with a history of active or latent TB infection must follow instructions for "participants with a prior diagnosis of active or latent TB are excluded unless both of the following criteria are met" in this criterion.
  3. Participants with repeat indeterminate IGRA results, with no prior TB history, may be enrolled after consultation with a pulmonary or infectious disease specialist who determines low risk of infection (ie, participant would be acceptable for immunosuppressant [eg, anti-TNF] treatment without additional action). This consultation must be included in source documentation.

Results from a chest x-ray, taken within the 12 weeks before or during screening must show no abnormalities suggestive of active TB infection as determined by a qualified medical specialist.

Participants with a prior diagnosis of active or latent TB are excluded unless both of the following criteria are met:

Participants from regions with higher rates of primary multidrug TB resistance are excluded) or active (acceptable multidrug regimen) TB infection. Evidence of diagnosis and treatment must be included in source documentation. Consultation with a pulmonary or infectious disease specialist to confirm adequate treatment (ie, participant would be acceptable for immunosuppressant [eg, anti-TNF] treatment without additional action) must be performed during the screening period. The consultation report must be included in source documentation prior to enrollment.
  2. A chest x-ray performed within 12 weeks before or during screening indicates no evidence of active or recurrent disease, and documentation of interpretation by a qualified medical specialist must be included in source documentation.

Outcome measures

PrimaryNumber of Participants With Remission at Week 12

Remission was defined as a composite score of patient-reported symptoms using daily e-diary and centrally read endoscopy as stool frequency sub-score of 0 or 1 with at least a 1-point change from baseline, rectal bleeding sub-score of 0 and endoscopic sub-score of 0 or 1 (modified, excluded friability). The composite score was a recommended measure consisted of the Mayo score without the physician global assessment (PGA) sub-score and ranged from 0 to 9 points. The Mayo score was a measure of Ulcerative Colitis (UC) disease activity. It ranged from 0 to 12 points and consisted of 4 sub-scores, each graded from 0 to 3 with higher scores indicating more severe disease. The sub-scores were stool frequency (0-3); rectal bleeding (0-3); findings of endoscopy (0-3); PGA (0-3).

SF-36 consisted of 36 items that were aggregated into 8 multi-item scales (physical functioning \[1=yes, limited a lot to 3=no, not limited at all\], role-physical \[1=all of the time to 5=none of the time\], bodily pain \[1=very severe to 6=none\], general health \[1=poor to 5=excellent\], vitality \[1=none of the time to 5=all of the time\], social functioning \[1=all of the time: to 5=none of the time\], role emotional \[1=all of the time to 5=none of the time\] and mental health \[1=all of the time to 5=none of the time\]). Four domains comprised physical component summary (PCS) score (physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, general health) and remaining 4 domains comprised mental component summary (MCS) score (vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, mental health). The scores ranged from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicating better HRQL.
