  • A female study participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant and does not plan to become pregnant during the study.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Study participant has any medical, obstetrical, or psychiatric condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, could jeopardize or would compromise the study participant's ability to participate in this study.
  • The infant has any abnormality noted on physical examination or medical history that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may jeopardize or compromise study participation.
  • Study participant has a history of chronic alcohol or drug abuse within the previous last year.
  • Study participant has history of breast implants, breast augmentation, or breast reduction surgery.
  • Study participant plans a surgical intervention during the Screening Period and Sampling Period or anticipates having surgery while participating in the Sampling Period (does not apply to tubal ligation).
  • Study participant or her infant has participated in another study of an medicinal product (IMP) (and/or an investigational device) within the previous 6 months or is currently participating in another study of an IMP (and/or an investigational device), unless the study is UCB PS0036 or a bimekizumab registry study.
  • Study participant or her infant has previously participated (ie, entered the sampling period) in this study.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
