Recruitment Details  
Pre-assignment Details Participants were assigned to Placebo, Golimumab 100 mg->50 mg, Golimumab 200 mg->100 mg and Golimumab 400 mg->200 mg groups for dose selection. Efficacy results were reported for only newly enrolled participants assigned to Placebo, Golimumab 200 mg->100 mg and Golimumab 400 mg->200 mg groups after dose-selection as per planned analysis.
Arm/Group Title Placebo Golimumab 100 mg -> 50 mg Golimumab 200 mg -> 100 mg Golimumab 400 mg -> 200 mg
Hide Arm/Group Description Placebo subcutaneous injection (given under the skin by way of a needle) matched to golimumab administered at Week 0 and Week 2. This dosing regimen was selected for the efficacy analysis (only in newly enrolled participants following dose-selection, as per planned analysis). Golimumab 100 milligram (mg) subcutaneous injection was administered at Week 0 and dose was decreased to 50 mg at Week 2. Golimumab 200 mg subcutaneous injection was administered at Week 0 and the dose was decreased to 100 mg at Week 2. This dosing regimen was selected for the efficacy analysis (only in newly enrolled participants following dose-selection, as per planned analysis). Golimumab 400 mg subcutaneous injection was administered at Week 0 and the dose was decreased to 200 mg at Week 2. This dosing regimen was selected for the efficacy analysis (only in newly enrolled participants following dose-selection, as per planned analysis).

1.Primary Outcome
Title Number of Participants With Clinical Response at Week 6
Hide Description Clinical response is defined as decrease from baseline in Mayo score by greater than or equal to 30 percent and greater than or equal to 3, with either a decrease from baseline in rectal bleeding sub-score of greater than or equal to 1 or a rectal bleeding sub-score of 0 or 1. The Mayo score is sum of 4 sub-scores (i.e., stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopic findings, and physician's global assessment); each rated on a scale from 0 to 3, with higher scores indicating more severe disease. The total Mayo score value ranges from 0 to 12.

Hide Description Mucosal healing is determined from the endoscopy sub-score of the Mayo score. Mucosal healing is defined as an endoscopy sub-score of 0 or 1. Higher score indicates higher severity of disease. Endoscopy sub-score ranges from 0 (normal or inactive disease) to 3 (severe disease; spontaneous bleeding and ulceration).

Title Change From Baseline in the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) Score at Week 6
Hide Description The IBDQ is used to measure disease specific quality of life on a 32 Likert-scaled items questionnaire. The IBDQ scale contains 4 component subscales: bowel symptoms, systemic symptoms, emotional function and social function with scores ranging from 10 to 70, 5 to 35, 12 to 84 and 5 to 35 respectively and the total score ranges from 32 to 224. Higher scores indicate better health related quality of life.
