Brief Summary

This is an open-label, single-arm, single-center study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy signal of ENC1018 capsules in patients with moderate-to-severe active ulcerative colitis (UC).

Detailed Description

The study will enroll about 10 diagnosed patients with moderate-to-severe active UC. Each patient will receive an oral dose of ENC1018 capsules once daily for 14 consecutive days after enrollment. Before each dose, patients must fast for at least 2 hours to remain in a fasting state, and no food should be consumed for at least 2 hours after dosing.
