  • Has history of drug or alcohol abuse according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (DSM-V) criteria within 1 year before screening
  • Uses or has used an investigational drug (including investigational vaccines) or used an invasive investigational medical device within 1 month before enrolling in the study
  • Has received or plans to receive any live, attenuated vaccine within 12 weeks prior to administration of guselkumab. Non-live vaccines approved or authorized for emergency use (for example, Coronavirus disease-19 [COVID-19]) by local health authorities are allowed

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Breast Milk Collection: Guselkumab Once Every 4 Weeks (Q4W) Regimen
Participants who have been on guselkumab maintenance therapy and received at least 2 maintenance doses of guselkumab Q4W for any of the approved indications: ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's Disease (CD), will be enrolled. On Day 1 of the study, participants will receive their scheduled guselkumab maintenance dose of 200 mg every 4 weeks. A total of 4 breast milk samples will be collected. The total study duration per participant will be 8 weeks.
Breast milk samples will be collected as per the schedule specified in protocol.
Guselkumab as prescribed by the participant's treating physician and obtained by the participant outside of the study per the treating physician's practice will be used.
Experimental: Breast Milk Collection: Guselkumab Once Every 8 Weeks (Q8W) Regimen
Participants who have been on guselkumab maintenance therapy and received at least 2 maintenance doses of guselkumab Q8W regimen for any of the approved indications: psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis (pSA) or UC or CD, will be enrolled. On Day 1 of the study, the participants will receive their scheduled guselkumab maintenance dose of 100 mg every 8 weeks. A total of 5 breast milk samples will be collected. The total study duration per participant will be 8 weeks.
Breast milk samples will be collected as per the schedule specified in protocol.
Guselkumab as prescribed by the participant's treating physician and obtained by the participant outside of the study per the treating physician's practice will be used.
