Summary
This study tests an experimental drug called SAR441566 in about 204 adults with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis, a chronic bowel disease causing inflammation and symptoms like diarrhea and bleeding. Participants will receive either the drug or a placebo for up to 52 weeks to see if it can safely induce and maintain remission. The goal is to control the disease long-term, not cure it.

History of inadequate response to, loss of response to or intolerance to treatment with ≥1 approved AT such as a biologic agent (eg. TNF antagonists, anti-integrin other than natalizumab, anti-IL-12/23, anti-IL-23, or a small molecule (such as a JAKi or S1PRm) for UC * Contraceptive use by men and women should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies. Exclusion Criteria: Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply: * Participants with active CD, indeterminate colitis, ischemic colitis, microscopic colitis * Participants with the following ongoing known complications of UC: fulminant colitis, toxic megacolon, or any other manifestation that might require bowel surgery while enrolled in the study * Participant with prior colectomy, ostomy or ileoanal pouch, or anticipated colectomy during their participation in the study * Participants with fecal sample positive for ova or parasites, bacterial pathogens, or positive for Clostridium difficile B toxin in stools * Participants with active tuberculosis (TB) or a history of incompletely treated active TB or latent TB infection per local guidelines * Participants with Positive Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), or hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) and/or hepatitis C virus antibody (HCVAb) at the screening visit * Participants with any other active, chronic or recurrent infection, including recurrent or disseminated herpes zoster or disseminated herpes simplex * Participants with a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or positive HIV-1 or HIV-2 serology at screening * Participants presenting with active malignancies, lymphoproliferative disease, or recurrence of either, within the 5 years before screening * History of gastro-intestinal dysplasia other than completely removed low grade dysplasia OR presence of colonic mucosal dysplasia or adenomatous colonic polyps not removed during endoscopy by the time of the screening visit. * If the participant has extensive colitis for ≥8 years or disease limited to left side of colon (ie, distal to splenic flexure) for \>10 years, regardless of age, a colonoscopy within 1 year of the screening visit is required to survey for dysplasia. Participants with dysplasia or cancer identified on biopsies will be excluded. * Female participants who is pregnant, breastfeeding, or is considering becoming pregnant during the study or within 3 months after the last dose of study drug * Infection(s) requiring treatment with IV anti-infectives within 30 days prior to the screening visit or oral/intramuscular anti-infectives within 14 days prior to the screening visit * Participants requiring or receiving any parental nutrition and/or exclusive enteral nutrition * Participants who received cyclosporine, tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, or thalidomide within 30 days prior to screening * Participants who received fecal microbial transplantation within 30 days prior to screening * Participants who have ever been exposed to natalizumab (Tysabri®) or oral carotegrast methyl (Carogra®) * Participants who received IV corticosteroids within 14 days prior to screening or during screening period * Screening laboratory and other analyses show abnormal results.
