Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammatory bowel disease causing inflammation and bleeding in the colon and rectum. This research aims to assess how treatment with risankizumab affects disease activity in adults with moderate to severe UC in real-world clinical settings. Risankizumab is an approved medication for UC, and the study will enroll about 200 adult participants across multiple sites in Germany and Austria. Participants will receive risankizumab as prescribed by their own doctors following routine clinical practice and according to local guidelines. There are no additional treatments or interventions beyond normal care. The study will follow participants for up to 52 weeks to observe changes in their disease activity while on this medication. During the study, participants will attend regular visits at hospitals or clinics as usual for their condition. Researchers will monitor the percentage of participants achieving symptomatic remission based on a standard scoring system over approximately one year. No extra burden beyond routine clinical visits is expected for participants throughout the study.
