You may qualify if:

• Aged between 18 and 75 years, male or female.
• Ulcerative colitis has been diagnosed at least 3 months before screening, and the diagnosis must be confirmed by endoscopy or radiology and histology.
• Have moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis, defined as a modified Mayo score ≥6.
• Poor response or intolerance to at least one conventional therapy (aminosalicylic acids, corticosteroids, or immunomodulators) or biologics (anti-TNF, anti-α4β7 integrin, or anti-IL-12/23 antibody drugs) as determined by the investigator.
• If subjects are taking oral aminosalicylic acids or oral glucocorticoids, their doses must remain stable for at least 2 weeks prior to enrollment and for the duration of the study.
• Voluntarily sign the informed consent and be willing to follow the research procedures and complete the test in accordance with the protocol.

You may not qualify if:

• Diagnosed with undefined colitis, infectious colitis, ischemic colitis, fulminant colitis, toxic megacolon, or other chronic intestinal diseases other than UC such as Crohn's disease (CD), intestinal tuberculosis, radiation enteritis, and intestinal belcet's disease.
• Never received any previous treatment for UC.
• Participated in any other clinical trial within 3 months prior to screening (except those who have only participated in clinical trial screening without using the experimental drug).
• Subjects with a history of alcohol or drug abuse and complete abstinence for less than 6 months before enrollment.
• Received any live vaccine within 6 weeks prior to enrollment or planned to receive any live vaccine during the study period or within 6 weeks after the last use of the investigational drug.
• Experienced major trauma or major surgery within 4 weeks before enrollment;
• Have any other gastrointestinal diseases that may affect the absorption of oral drugs or have undergone gastrectomy or gastric bypass surgery.
• Assessed by investigator as needing or receiving total parenteral nutrition and/or total enteral nutrition.
• Allergy to the test drug or its ingredients.
• Surgical treatment for ulcerative colitis, including but not limited to ostomy, ileal pocket anal anastomosis, and intestinal resection, is required during prior or anticipated study.
• Pregnant and lactating women; Or women of childbearing age who have positive blood pregnancy test results during screening; Or had a birth plan throughout the trial period and within 3 months after the end of the study; Or unwilling to use one or more types of physical contraception during the trial and for three months after the end of the study.
• The investigator believes that participation in this study is not appropriate for other reasons; Or other conditions that may confuse or interfere with the safety, tolerability, or pharmacokinetic evaluation of the investigational drug.
