Purpose

The purpose of this protocol is to evaluate the efficacy (how well it works), safety and tolerability of oral icotrokinra as therapy in adult and adolescent participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC, a chronic disease of the large intestine in which the lining of the colon becomes inflamed and develops tiny open ulcers).

Inclusion Criteria

  • Diagnosis of ulcerative colitis (UC) established at least 12 weeks before screening including both endoscopic evidence and a histopathology report consistent with a diagnosis of UC - Moderately to severely active UC, defined as a baseline (Week I-0) modified Mayo score of 5 to 9, inclusive, using the endoscopy subscore obtained during the central review of the screening video endoscopy - An endoscopy subscore greater than or equal to (>=) 2 as obtained during central review of the screening video endoscopy - For adolescent participants >=12 to less than (<) 18 years of age, body weight must be >=40 kilograms (kg) at baseline (Week I-0) - Adult female participants of childbearing potential and all adolescent female participants must have a negative highly sensitive serum pregnancy test (beta-human chorionic gonadotropin [β-hCG]) at screening and a negative urine pregnancy test at Week I-0 prior to administration of study intervention and agree to further pregnancy tests - Demonstrated an inadequate response, loss of response, or failure to tolerate previous conventional therapy (advanced drug therapy [ADT]-naïve) or advanced therapy defined as biologics and/or advanced oral agents for the treatment of UC (ADT-inadequate responder [IR]) as defined in the protocol

Exclusion Criteria

  • Participants with current known complications of UC such as fulminant colitis, toxic megacolon, or any other manifestation that might require colonic surgery while enrolled in the study - Presence of a stoma - Presence or history of a fistula - Colonic resection within 24 weeks before baseline or any other intra-abdominal or other major surgery performed within 12 weeks before baseline - History of extensive colonic resection (that is, less than [<] 30 centimeter [cm] of colon remaining) or colonic resection that could impair the use of disease severity assessments (for example Mayo Score) to assess response to study intervention

ArmDescriptionAssigned Intervention
Experimental
Double-blind (DB) Induction Study: Icotrokinra
Adult participants will be randomized to receive icotrokinra daily, orally starting at induction Week 0 (Week I-0). At Week I-12, all participants will be evaluated for clinical response and will enter the Maintenance study.
  • Drug: Icotrokinra
    Icotrokinra tablet will be administered orally.
    Other names:
    • JNJ-77242113
Placebo Comparator
DB Induction Study: Placebo
Adult participants will be randomized to receive placebo daily, orally starting at Week I-0. At Week I-12, all participants will be evaluated for clinical response and will enter the Maintenance study.
  • Drug: Placebo
    Placebo tablet will be administered orally.
Experimental
DB Maintenance Study: Icotrokinra
Adult participants who are in clinical response to icotrokinra at the end of the Induction study will enter the Maintenance study and be randomized to receive icotrokinra daily, orally starting at maintenance Week 0 (Week M-0) through Week M-40. Participants who are clinical nonresponders to icotrokinra or placebo will also enter the Maintenance study directly and receive icotrokinra daily. After completion of the Maintenance study through Week M-40, eligible participants can participate in a long-term extension (LTE).
  • Drug: Icotrokinra
    Icotrokinra tablet will be administered orally.
    Other names:
    • JNJ-77242113
Placebo Comparator
DB Maintenance Study: Placebo
Adult participants who are in clinical response to icotrokinra at the end of the Induction study will enter the Maintenance study and be randomized to receive placebo daily, orally starting at Week M-0 through Week M-40. Participants who are clinical responders to placebo will also enter the Maintenance study directly and continue to receive placebo daily. After completion of the Maintenance study through Week M-40, eligible participants can participate in a LTE.
  • Drug: Placebo
    Placebo tablet will be administered orally.
Experimental
Open-label (OL) Induction Phase: Icotrokinra
Adolescent participants will enter the Induction phase and receive icotrokinra daily, orally. At Week I-12 all participants will be evaluated for clinical response and will enter the Maintenance phase.
  • Drug: Icotrokinra
    Icotrokinra tablet will be administered orally.
    Other names:
    • JNJ-77242113
Experimental
OL Maintenance Phase: Icotrokinra
Adolescent participants who are in clinical response to icotrokinra will enter the Maintenance phase at Week M-0 and continue to receive icotrokinra daily, orally up to Week M-40. Participants who are nonresponders to icotrokinra will also enter the Maintenance phase to receive icotrokinra daily. After completion of the Maintenance phase through Week M-40, eligible participants can participate in a LTE.
  • Drug: Icotrokinra
    Icotrokinra tablet will be administered orally.
