The purpose of this study is to find out if a new investigational drug, called tofacitinib (also known as tofacitinib citrate or CP-690,550), can help people with Ulcer Colitis (UC). The purpose of this research study is to compare the effects of tofacitinib to a placebo in patients with Ulcer Colitis (UC). A placebo looks like the study drug but does not contain any drug. Researchers use a placebo to see if the study drug works better or is safer than not taking anything. If you choose to participate in this study, you will have a 4 in 5 (80%) chance of receiving tofacitinib and a 1 in 5 (20%) chance of receiving placebo.
