SWIFT Trial Design

8Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Part 2: Ustekinumab MonotherapyExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will receive ustekinumab, initial dose determined by body weight: 260 to 520 mg intravenous (IV), then subsequent dose: 90 mg subcutaneous (SC) 8 weeks after the initial IV dose, and every 8 weeks up to week 16 ( total of 2 subcutaneous injections after initial IV ustekinumab). Participants will be eligible to continue and remain on the ustekinumab through Week 24.
Group II: Part 2: Open-label GS-1427Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants who complete Part 2 Week 24, will be eligible to continue and and receive open-label GS-1427 through Week 52 at a dose to be determined in Part 1A.
Group III: Part 2: GS-1427 MonotherapyExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will receive GS-1427 (at a dose determined based in Part 1A) Day 1 through Week 12. Participants will be eligible to continue and remain on the same dose of GS-1427 through Week 24.
Group IV: Part 2: GS-1427 + Ustekinumab Combination TherapyExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will receive GS-1427 (dose determined based on Part 1A) and ustekinumab, initial dose determined by body weight: 260 to 520 mg IV, then subsequent dose: 90 mg SC 8 weeks after the initial IV dose, and every 8 weeks up to week 16 ( total of 2 subcutaneous injections after initial IV ustekinumab). Participants will be eligible to continue and remain on the same dose of GS-1427 and ustekinumab combination therapy through Week 24.
Group V: Part 1A, Placebo; Part 1B, GS-1427Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will receive Placebo to match GS-1427 Day 1 through Week 12 (Part 1A). Participants will be eligible to be re-randomized to receive one of the GS-1427 dose A, B, or C treatment after Week 12 through Week 52 (Part 1B).
Group VI: Part 1A, Part 1B: GS-1427 Dose CExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will receive GS-1427 Dose C Day 1 through Week 12 (Part 1A). Participants will be eligible to continue and remain on the same dose of GS-1427 through Week 52 (Part 1B).
Group VII: Part 1A, Part 1B: GS-1427 Dose BExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will receive GS-1427 Dose B Day 1 through Week 12 (Part 1A). Participants will be eligible to continue and remain on the same dose of GS-1427 through Week 52 (Part 1B).
Group VIII: Part 1A, Part 1B: GS-1427 Dose AExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will receive GS-1427 Dose A Day 1 through Week 12 (Part 1A). Participants will be eligible to continue and remain on the same dose of GS-1427 through Week 52 (Part 1B).
