consent prior to any study-related assessments or procedures (as required by national or

for relevant age ranges, will be made available to clinical study sites.
3. Willing and able to adhere to the study visit schedule and other protocol requirements
including swallowing a capsule (until a sprinkle formulation of ozanimod is available as
described in Section 7.1).
4. Have had UC diagnosed prior to the Screening Visit. The diagnosis should be confirmed
by clinical and endoscopic evidence and corroborated by a histopathology report (note:
histopathology may be performed during endoscopy at Screening if no prior report is
readily available).
5. Evidence of UC extending beyond the rectum, as determined by baseline endoscopy
(flexible sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy)
6. Has moderately to severely active UC, defined as a 4-component Mayo Score ≥ 6 and

b. systemic corticosteroids (eg, oral prednisone, budesonide MMX, IV corticosteroids)
c. immunomodulators (eg, AZA, 6-MP, cyclosporine, MTX)
d. biologic therapy (eg, abatacept, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab, anakinra,
rituximab, vedolizumab, and golimumab)
e. other systemic immunomodulatory treatments for UC, such as tofacitinib
Note: criterion 7b-7e are N/A in Germany
8. Subjects may concurrently receive treatment with oral 5-ASAs, or with prednisone or
equivalent (≤ 0.5 mg/kg/ day up to 20 mg/day) or beclomethasone < 5mg/day
- If on oral 5-ASAs, the dose must have been stable for at least 3 weeks prior to
screening endoscopy = baseline .
- If on corticosteroids, the dose must have been stable for at least 2 weeks prior to
screening endoscopy and must remain stable through the first 5 weeks of treatment
(ie, until the Week 5 study visit).
-If discontinuing corticosteroids (e.g. MMX), subject must taper as described in Section 8.1.1.
9. Inclusion criterion 9 is not applicable for protocol amendment 2.0.
10. Must have documentation of vaccinations per standard immunization schedule including
complete Varicella vaccination at least 30 days prior to randomization. (VZV and IgG +ve)
11. Females of childbearing potential (FCBP)1 must agree to practice a highly effective
method of contraception2
throughout the study until completion of the 90-day Safety
Follow-up Visit. Highly effective methods of contraception are those that alone or in
combination result in a failure rate of a Pearl index of less than 1% per year when used
consistently and correctly. Selection of contraceptive methods should be based on those
available/approved as per national or local practice. Acceptable methods of birth control
in the study are the following:
- combined hormonal (estrogen and progestogen containing) contraception, which may
be oral, intravaginal, or transdermal
- progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation,
which may be oral, injectable, or implantable
- placement of an intrauterine device (IUD)
- placement of an intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS)
- bilateral tubal occlusion
- complete sexual abstinence ([defined as refraining from heterosexual intercourse]
reliability to be evaluated based on the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject)
-Periodic abstinence (calendar, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods),
withdrawal (coitus interruptus), spermicides only, and lactational amenorrhea method | |
