Main Exclusion Criteria:

1. Participants who have received either (1) an investigational biologic (other than those listed in Exclusion Criterion #1) within 60 days or 5 half-lives before screening (whichever is longer); or (2) an approved biologic or biosimilar agent within 2 weeks before the first dose of study drug or at any time during the screening period.
2. Participants with active cerebral/meningeal disease, signs/symptoms or history of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) or any other major neurological disorders including stroke, multiple sclerosis, brain tumor or neurodegenerative disease.

   * Positive QuantiFERON test or 2 successive indeterminate QuantiFERON tests, OR
   * A TB skin test reaction ≥5 mm.
10. Participants with evidence of positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb). Hepatitis B virus (HBV) immune participants(i.e., hepatitis B surface antigen \[HBsAg\]-negative and hepatitis B antibody-positive) may, however, be included.

    Note: If a participant tests negative for HBsAg, but positive for HBcAb, the participant would be considered eligible if the absence of HBV DNA is confirmed by HBV DNA polymerase chain reaction reflex testing performed in the central laboratory.
11. Participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) (ie, positive HCV antibody \[HCVAb\] and HCV RNA).
