a study to test the effect of tev-48574 in moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or crohn's disease

Conditions: Crohn Disease; Colitis, Ulcerative

Summary: the primary objective is to characterize the efficacy tev-48574 in adult participants with ibd (moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (uc) or crohn's disease (cd)) as assessed by induction of clinical remission (uc) and endoscopic response (cd) at week 14. secondary objectives: * to evaluate the efficacy and dose response of the 2 different dose regimens as assessed by multiple standard measures * to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the 2 different dose regimens * to evaluate the immunogenicity of the 2 different dose regimens the study will consist of a screening period of up to 6 weeks (42 days), a 14-week treatment period, and a 4-week follow-up period.
