Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate serum soluble human ST2 protein, the receptor for Interleukin-33 (IL-33) and a member of the proinflammatory Interleukin-1 (IL-1) receptor superfamily, as a surrogate biological marker predictive of disease outcome and therapeutic response to golimumab treatment in participants with moderate to severe UC who have failed on prior conventional therapies. The primary endpoints of this study are to correlate serum soluble ST2 levels with endoscopic activity (endoscopic subscore of the Mayo score) and histological activity (Geboes index) of disease.
