Brief Summary
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn if abatacept can improve signs and symptoms of active ulcerative colitis in patients who have not had an adequate response to other therapies. The safety of this treatment will also be studied

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (8)
Induction Period (IP); Number of Participants With Clinical Response (Per Mayo Score) at Week 12: IP Cohort 1 (IP1C)
The Mayo Scoring system ranges from 0 - 12 points and is a composite index consisting of 4 disease variables (stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopy evaluation, and Physician's Global Assessment). Higher Mayo scores indicate greater severity of disease. A clinical response is defined as a reduction from baseline in the Mayo score of ≥ 3 points and ≥ 30%, with an accompanying decrease in the rectal bleeding subscore of ≥ 1 point or absolute rectal bleeding subscore of ≤ 1 point.
Week 12 (Day IP-85)
Maintenance Period (MP); Number of Participants With Clinical Response (Per Mayo Score) at Month 12
The Mayo Scoring system ranges from 0 - 12 points and is a composite index consisting of 4 disease variables (stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopy evaluation, and Physician's Global Assessment). Higher Mayo scores indicate greater severity of disease. A clinical response is defined as a reduction from baseline in the Mayo score of ≥ 3 points and ≥ 30%, with an accompanying decrease in the rectal bleeding subscore of ≥ 1 point or absolute rectal bleeding subscore of ≤ 1 point.
Month 12 (Day MP-365)
Open-Label Extension Period (OL); Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Related AEs, Deaths, Serious AEs (SAEs), Related SAEs, and AEs Leading to Discontinuation
AE=any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. Related AE=relationship of certain, probable, possible, or missing. SAE=any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or causes prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, results in development of drug dependency or drug abuse, is an important medical event.
Day OL-1 through the end of the OL
OL; Number of Participants With AEs of Special Interest
AE=any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. AEs of special interest are those AEs that may be associated with the use of immunomodulatory drugs, including all infections, serious infections, and opportunistic infections; autoimmune disorders; neoplasms; acute infusional AEs (pre-specified AEs occurring within 1 hour of start of infusion) and peri-infusional AEs (pre-specified AEs occurring within 24 hours of the start of infusion).
Day OL-1 through Day OL-729
OL; Number of Participants With Physical Examination Findings
Complete physical examination was obtained at the Screening Visit, Day MP-365, and OL Final Visit/Early Termination visits. Interim physical examinations were performed at other study visits. Interim physical exam were not as comprehensive as the initial full examination but did note any changes in the participant's condition since the last assessment and did not preclude examination of any of the body systems as clinically indicated. Participants were observed for AEs and vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature).
Day OL-1 through Day OL-729
OL; Number of Participants With Marked Hematology Laboratory Abnormalities
High=greater than Upper Normal Limit (ULN), Low=lower than Lower Normal Limit (LLN). LLN/ULN= Hemoglobin (HGB): \>3 g/dL decrease from Baseline (BL); Hematocrit: \<0.75 x BL; Erythrocytes: \<0.75 x BL; Platelets (PLT): \<0.67 x LLN/\>1.5 x ULN; Leukocytes: \<0.75 x LLN/ \>1.25 x ULN; neutrophils+bands: \<1.0 x 10\^3 c/uL; eosinophils: \>0.750 x 10\^3 c/uL; monocytes: \>2000 mm3; lymphocytes: \<0.750 x 10\^3 c/uL/ \>7.50 x 10\^3 c/uL.
Day OL-1 through Day OL-729
OL; Number of Participants With Liver and Kidney Function and Electrolyte Laboratory Abnormalities
Low=lower than LLN, High=greater than ULN. LLN/ULN= Alkaline phosphatase (ALP): \>2 x ULN; aspartate aminotransferase (AST): \>3 x ULN; alanine aminotransferase (ALT): \>3 x ULN; G-Glutamyl transferase (GGT): \>2 x ULN; Bilirubin: \>2 x ULN; blood urea nitrogen (BUN): \>2 x BL; creatinine: \>4 x BL; potassium (K): \<0.9 x LLN/ \>1.1 x ULN; calcium (Ca): \<0.8 x LLN/\>1.2 x ULN; phosphorous (P): \<0.75 x LLN/ \>1.2 5 x ULN
Day OL-1 through Day OL-729
OL; Number of Participants With Chemistry and Urinalysis Laboratory Abnormalities
Low=lower than LLN, High=greater than ULN. LLN/ULN= serum glucose (Glu): \<65 mg/dL/ \>220 mg/dL; fasting serum Glu: \<0.8 x LLN/ \>1.5 x ULN; total protein: \< 0.9 x LLN/ \>1.1 x ULN; albumin:\<0.9 x LLN; uric acid: \>1.5 x ULN. For Urinalysis (Urine protein, urine Glu, urine blood, leukocyte esterase, Red Blood Cells \[RBCs\], White Blood Cells \[WBCs\]): Use ≥2 when BL value missing or value ≥4, or when pre-dose=0 or 0.5. Use ≥3 when pre-dose=1. Use ≥4 when pre-dose=2 or 3
