Patients that have a history or presence of cardiovascular, respiratory, hepatic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, hematological, neurological, or neuropsychiatric disorders or any other serious and/or unstable illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, could constitute an unacceptable risk when taking investigational product or interfere with the interpretation of data.  Patients that have a history of lymphoproliferative disease; or have signs or symptoms suggestive of possible lymphoproliferative disease, including lymphadenopathy or splenomegaly; or have active primary or recurrent malignant disease; or have been in remission from clinically significant malignancy for less than 5 years :  Patients with cervical carcinoma in situ that has been resected with no evidence of recurrence or metastatic disease for at least 3 years may participate in the study.

Note: Patients eligible for herpes zoster vaccine, who have not received it prior to screening will be encouraged (per local guidelines) to do so prior to randomization; vaccination must occur >4 weeks prior to randomization and start of investigational product. Patients will be excluded if they were exposed to herpes zoster vaccination within 4 weeks of planned randomization.  Investigators should review the vaccination status of their patients and follow the local guidelines for vaccination of those ≥18 years of age with nonlive vaccines intended to prevent infectious disease prior to entering patients into the study  Have a history of chronic alcohol abuse, IV drug abuse, or other illicit drug abuse within the 2 years prior to screening.

Have previously been randomized in this study or any other study investigating baricitinib. Are investigator site personnel directly affiliated with this study and/or their immediate families. Immediate family is defined as a spouse, parent, child, or sibling, whether biological or legally adopted.  Diagnostic Assessments  Have screening electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities that, in the opinion of the investigator, are clinically significant and indicate an unacceptable risk for the patient's participation in the study.  Have evidence of active TB or latent TB:  have evidence of active TB, defined in this study as the following:  Documented by a positive PPD test (≥5 mm induration between approximately 48 and 72 hours after application, regardless of vaccination history), medical history, clinical features, and abnormal chest x-ray at screening. The QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test or T-SPOT®.TB test (as available and if compliant with local TB guidelines) may be used instead of the PPD test. Patients are excluded from the study if the test is not negative and there is clinical evidence of active TB.  Exception: Patients with a history of active TB who have documented evidence of appropriate treatment, have no history of re-exposure since their treatment was completed, and have a screening chest x-ray with no evidence of active TB may be enrolled if other entry criteria are met. Such patients would not be required to undergo the protocol-specific TB testing for PPD, QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test, or T-SPOT® TB test but must have a chest x-ray at screening.
