NB: I soggetti che hanno ricevuto una pregressa terapia con biologici per più di 1 anno ma senza fallimento potranno essere arruolati, tuttavia, dovranno aver interrotto il medicinale biologico per motivi diversi dalla risposta inadeguata o intolleranza (es., variazione della copertura assicurativa, controllo soddisfacente della malattia).
- Se donna, il soggetto dove soddisfare le raccompandazioni sulla contraccezione.

Plans for treatment or care after the subject has ended the participation in the trial (if it is different from the expected normal treatment of that condition)

Subjects who achieve clinical response at week 12 or 24 may be enrolled in the maintenance/long-term extension study M14-430 with upadacitinib. Subjects who do not achieve clinical response to upadacitinib at week 24 will receive standard of care treatment, per the investigator’s decision.

I soggetti che ottengono una risposta clinica alla settimana 12 o 24 possono essere arruolati nello studio di estensione di mantenimento/a lungo termine M14-430 con upadacitinib. I soggetti che non ottengono una risposta clinica all'upadacitinib alla settimana 24 saranno sospesi dal trattamento e riceveranno un trattamento standard di cura, secondo la decisione dello sperimentatore.
