What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial will help researchers learn if tulisokibart, the trial medicine, can treat non-infectious intermediate, posterior, or panuveitis (NIIPPU) so that steroids can be given for a shorter period of time. In this trial, researchers will look at different doses (amounts) of tulisokibart.

The goal of this trial is to learn if tulisokibart works better than placebo to increase the length of time until NIIPPU gets worse. A placebo looks like the trial medicine but has no medicine in it. Using a placebo helps researchers better understand the effects of the trial medicine.
