Exclusion Criteria:

- For any reason participant is considered by the investigator to be an unsuitable
candidate.

M14-234 or who is considering becoming pregnant during the study or within 30 days
after the last dose of study drug.

(AE) during the preceding studies, that in the investigator's judgment makes the
participant unsuitable for this study.

clinical assessment makes the participant an unsuitable candidate for the study.

tuberculosis and for any reason the participant cannot take full course of TB

diabetes, unstable ischemic heart disease, moderate or severe congestive heart
failure (New York Heart Association class III or IV), recent cerebrovascular
accidents and any other condition which, in the opinion of the investigator or
sponsor, would put the subject at risk by participation in this study.

of the gastrointestinal tract diagnosed at the endoscopy performed at the final
visit of Study M14-234.
