Participants receiving non-prohibited concomitant medications for any reason must be willing to stay on a stable regimen as defined in the protocol. Exclusion Criteria: History of known or suspected complete ankylosis of the spine. Any subject with condition affecting oral drug absorption. Participants taking high potency opioid analgesics (e.g. methadone, hydromorphone, morphine) within 4 weeks before randomization. Participants on any other DMARDs within 4 weeks or five half-lives (whichever is longer) of the drug prior to the Baseline visit. Participants has a history of inflammatory arthritis of different etiology other than axial SpA (including but not limited to rheumatoid arthritis, mixed connective tissue disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, reactive arthritis, scleroderma, polymyositis, dermatomyositis, fibromyalgia), or any arthritis with onset prior to 17 years of age. Significant trauma or surgery procedure within 8 weeks prior to randomization, or any planned elective surgery during the study period.
