Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Subject has provided written informed consent/Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) authorization prior to any study-related procedures;
- Subject has current mild to moderately active ulcerative colitis, defined as a PUCAI score of 10-60.
- Subject is ≥ 4 years old and <18 years old at the time of enrollment.
- Subject has had 1) a colonoscopy demonstrating endoscopic and histologic inflammation, and/or; 2) a fecal calprotectin > 250 mcg/g, in the preceding 1 month.
- Subject is willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, study drug administration plan, and study procedures.
- Subject has not started a new immunomodulator or biologic in the preceding 2 months.
- If subject is taking an immunomodulator and/or biologic, the dose has not been changed in the last 2 months
- Subject has a positive varicella IgG titer, or history of at least 2 documented varicella vaccines
Exclusion Criteria:

Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Clinical Remission
Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index score <10 and no additional therapy or colectomy). The PUCAI is scored from 0-85, lower numbers indicate less severe disease activity.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Safety (adverse events)
Change in osteocalcin, P1NP, CTX
Bone biomarkers
Cushingoid appearance
Physician reported, yes or no
Week 8 response
Decrease in PUCAI score by 20 points or more (lower scores indicate less severe disease activity)
Change in Mayo Score Stool Frequency subscore
Score ranges from 0-3, with lower scores indicating less severe disease activity
Change in Mayo rectal bleeding score
Scores range from 0-3, with lower scores indicating less severe disease activity
Mayo Score Stool Frequency subscore of 0 or 1
