About this trial

The purpose of this post-marketing study is to assess the amount of guselkumab in breast milk of lactating women receiving guselkumab as part of their standard clinical care provided by their treating physician, for any of the approved indications.

This is a fully remote (virtual) study. Participants can complete all study-related activities, including consent, study visits, and breast milk sample collection, from home without attending an in-person study site.

Be medically stable on the basis of medical history review performed at screening. Any abnormalities must be consistent with the underlying illness in the study population and this determination must be recorded in the participant's source documents and initialed by the investigator

Currently is on established guselkumab maintenance therapy, that is, has received at least 2 guselkumab subcutaneous (SC) maintenance doses before Day 1

Has made the decision to be treated with guselkumab and to breastfeed independently prior to the participant consenting to participate in this study

Disqualifiers

Has any current or previous illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results of the study or that could prevent, limit, or confound the protocol specified assessments

Has history of drug or alcohol abuse according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (DSM-V) criteria within 1 year before screening

Uses or has used an investigational drug (including investigational vaccines) or used an invasive investigational medical device within 1 month before enrolling in the study
