The registry criteria, word for word
Show all 12 criteriaShow less
Who can take part
- Participants must have a diagnosis of JIA-U or chronic anterior antinuclear antibody (ANA) positive uveitis without systemic features
- Participants must have active anterior uveitis, defined as cellular infiltrate in the anterior chamber of SUN criteria grade ≥1+ at screening and randomization, despite prior treatment with adequate doses of topical steroid therapy and methotrexate (MTX)
- Participants must have an inadequate response or intolerance to MTX
- Participants must be on a stable dose of corticosteroid eye drops for at least 2 weeks prior to screening with a maximum of 4 drops/day/eye at screening
- Participants and their partners of child bearing potential must agree to use 2 effective methods of contraception for the duration of the study and for at least 1 week following the last dose of investigational product
Who cannot take part
- Participants must not have increased intraocular pressure ≥25 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) or that required treatment, including increases in medications, surgery, or hospitalization, within 4 weeks prior to baseline that, in the opinion of the investigator, would pose an unacceptable risk to the participant
- Participants must not have had intraocular surgery within the 3 months prior to screening (such as for cataract(s), glaucoma or vitrectomy)
- Participants must not have a current or recent (<4 weeks prior to baseline) infection
- Participants must not have a history or presence of any autoimmune inflammatory condition other than JIA, such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis
- Participants must not have any contraindications to adalimumab; Exception: Participants who are biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (bDMARD) inadequate response or intolerance with a contraindication to adalimumab may be enrolled, as they will be assigned to baricitinib
- Participants must not have a positive test for hepatitis B virus (HBV) at screening
- Participants must not have evidence of active tuberculosis (TB) or untreated latent TB

About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
The reason for this study is to see if the study drug baricitinib given orally is safe and effective in participants with active juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA)-associated uveitis or chronic anterior antinuclear antibody-positive uveitis from 2 years to less than 18 years old.
The 2 groups in the trial
- BaricitinibTreatment being tested
Participants ≥9 to \<18 years of age were administered 4 milligrams (mg) baricitinib once daily (QD). Participants \<9 years of age were administered 2 mg baricitinib QD. Participants \<6 years of age received an oral suspension. Participants ≥6 to \<12 years of age had the option of receiving an oral suspension. Participants \>12 years of age were supplied tablets.
- AdalimumabExisting treatment, for comparison
Participants received adalimumab administered subcutaneously (SC) once every 2 weeks. The dose was based on body weight: 20 mg every 2 weeks for participants weighing \<30 kilograms (kg), or 40 mg every 2 weeks for participants weighing ≥30 kg.
