E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Subjects must have successfully enrolled in and completed either the M06-826 study or the M06-827 study. 2. Female must be either mot of childbearing potential, defined as postmenopausal for at least 1 year prior to the previous study (M06-826 study or the M06-827 study), or surgically sterile (bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy or histerectomy), or is of childbearing potencial and on practicing an approved method of birth control thoughout the study and for 150 days after last dose of study drug.

Subject must be able to self-inject study medication or have a designee or heathcare professional who can inject the study medication. 5.

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
A subject will be excluded from the study if he/she meets any of the following criteria: 1. For any reason, subject is considered by the investigator to be an unsuitable candidate for participation in the M10-223 study. 2. Female who is pregnant will be excluded from this study. 3. Has not responded to weekly adalimumab therapy from Study M06-826 or M06-827. 4. Female subjet considering becoming pregnant during the study. There should be at least a 150-day period between the last dose of study drug and conception. 5.

In the Week 52 (Study M06-826 or Study M06-827) colonoscopy/flexible sigmoidoscopy shows evidence of dysplasia or a malignancy, subject must not be enrolled in the study. 6.

Subjects with a poorly controlled medical condition, such as uncontrolled diabetes, unstable ischemic heart disease, moderate or severe congestive heart failure, recent cerebrovascular accidents and any other condition which, in the opinion of the investigator or sponsor, would put the subject at risk by participation in the study. 10. Received cyclosporine, tacrolimus, or mycophenolate mofetil within 30 days prior to Baseline. 11. Subjects with known hipersensitivity to the excipients of adalimumab as tested in the label. 12. Current diagnosis of fulminant colitis and/or toxic megacolon. |
