- Substudy 1: Percentage Of Participants Who Achieved Clinical Remission Per Adapted Mayo Score at Week 8 [ Time Frame: At Week 8 ]
The Adapted Mayo Score is a composite score of UC disease activity based on the following 3 subscores:
- Stool frequency subscore (SFS), scored from 0 (normal number of stools) to 3 (5 or more stools more than normal)
- Rectal bleeding subscore (RBS), scored from 0 (no blood seen) to 3 (blood alone passed)
- Endoscopic subscore, scored from 0 (normal or inactive disease) to 3 (severe disease, spontaneous bleeding, ulceration)
The overall Adapted Mayo score ranges from 0 to 9 where higher scores represent more severe disease.
For Substudy 1, clinical remission is defined as SFS ≤ 1, RBS of 0, and endoscopic subscore ≤ 1.
- Substudy 2: Percentage Of Participants Who Achieved Clinical Remission Per Adapted Mayo Score at Week 8 [ Time Frame: At Week 8 ]
