About this study
Official title: A Randomised, Phase IIa Treatment Delayed-start Trial of the Oral JAK 1/2 Inhibitor, Baricitinib, in the Treatment of Adult Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy
This study aims to investigate the clinical efficacy of baricitinib in patients with adult idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM). Half of the patients enrolled onto the study will receive 24 weeks of baricitinib from the baseline visit with a 12 week follow-up period. The other half of patients will receive 24 weeks of barcitinib treatment after an initial 12-week delay with a 4 week follow up period for safety.
Read the detailed description
Potential participants will attend a screening visit to confirm their eligibility to participate in the trial. Once eligibility is confirmed the participant will be randomised to receive 24 weeks of baracitinib from the baseline visit with 12 weeks of follow up or receive 24 weeks of baracitinib after a delayed-start of 12 weeks from the baseline visit.
Participants will attend study visits every 4 weeks starting at the baseline visit at week 0. At each visit data will be collected about the following:
- Muscle function
- Signs of disease activity
- Vital signs
- Physical examination
- A blood test to check blood count, liver and kidney function and markers of inflammation for safety purposes.
- Participant reported assessment of how disease disease is progressing.
In addition the following data will be collected at week 0, week 12, week 24 and week 36:
- Signs of disease damage
- Blood and urine sample collection for biomarker analysis
- Additional muscle function and disease activity assessments
- Participant reported assessment of how disease affects their day-to-day life.
- Conditions
- Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies
- Being tested

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Baricitinib in people with Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies, run by University of Manchester at 1 site in United Kingdom.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 44 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Assess the clinical response across treatment arms after 24 weeks of active treatment. (time frame: Immediate-start arm: 24 weeks after baseline visit; Delayed-start arm: 36 weeks after baseline visit). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Oct 2023.
