The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ABT-494 for induction and maintenance therapy in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis.
Ulcerative colitis (UL-sur-uh-tiv koe-LIE-tis) is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes long-lasting inflammation and ulcers (sores) in your digestive tract. Ulcerative colitis affects the innermost lining of your large intestine (colon) and rectum. Symptoms usually develop over time, rather than suddenly.
