Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • The participant weighs ≥10 kg at the time of screening and enrollment into the study.
  • Participants with UC or CD diagnosed at least 1 month before screening. Participants with moderately to severely active disease defined as:
  • Participants with UC: a modified Mayo score of 5 to 9 (sum of Mayo endoscopic subscore, stool frequency subscore, and rectal bleeding subscore) with a Mayo endoscopic subscore of ≥2 (with the presence of mucosal friability excluding an endoscopic subscore of 1 and mandating a score of at least 2). (The results of screening endoscopy should be applied.)
  • Participants with CD: a pediatric Crohn's disease activity index (PCDAI) \>30 and a simple endoscopic score for Crohn's disease (SES-CD) \>6 (or an SES-CD ≥4 if disease is confined to terminal ileum) at screening endoscopy.
  • Participants who have failed, lost response to, or been intolerant to treatment with at least 1 of the following agents: corticosteroids, immunomodulators (for example, azathioprine \[AZA\], 6-mercaptopurine \[6-MP\], methotrexate \[MTX\]), and/or tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α antagonist therapy (for example, infliximab, adalimumab).
  • Participants with evidence of UC extending proximal to the rectum (that is, not limited to proctitis), at a minimum.
  • Participants with extensive colitis or pancolitis of \>8 years' duration or left-sided colitis of \>12 years' duration must have documented evidence of a negative surveillance colonoscopy within 12 months before screening.
  • Participants with vaccinations that are up-to-date based on the countrywide accepted schedule of childhood vaccines.

Exclusion

  • Participants who have had previous exposure to approved or investigational anti-integrins, including but not limited to, natalizumab, efalizumab, etrolizumab, or abrilumab (AMG 181); or mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) antagonists (ontamalimab), or rituximab.
  • Participants who have had prior exposure to vedolizumab.
  • Participants with hypersensitivity or allergies to vedolizumab or any of its excipients.
  • Participants with active cerebral/meningeal disease, signs/symptoms or history of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) or any other major neurological disorders.
  • The participant has received any live vaccinations within 30 days before first dose of study drug.
  • Participants who currently require surgical intervention or are anticipated to require surgical intervention for UC or CD during this study.
  • Participants who have had subtotal or total colectomy or have a jejunostomy, ileostomy, colostomy, ileo-anal pouch, known fixed stenosis of the intestine, short bowel syndrome, or \>3 small intestine resections.
  • Participants with a current diagnosis of indeterminate colitis.
  • Participants with clinical features suggesting monogenic very early-onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
  • Participants with active or latent tuberculosis (TB).
  • Participants with evidence of positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb). Hepatitis B virus (HBV) immune subjects (that is, HBsAg negative and hepatitis B surface antibody \[anti-HBs\]-positive) may, however, be included.
  • The participant has any identified congenital or acquired immunodeficiency (for example, common variable immunodeficiency, human immunodeficiency virus \[HIV\] infection, organ transplantation).
  • Participants with positive stool studies for ova and/or parasites or stool culture at screening visit.
  • Participants with positive Clostridioides difficile (C difficile) stool test at screening visit.
