About this study
Official title: A Randomized, Active-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Phase 3b/4 Study of Baricitinib in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis
This post-marketing study is designed to compare the safety of baricitinib versus tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors with respect to venous thromboembolic events (VTEs) when given to participants with rheumatoid arthritis.
- Conditions
- Rheumatoid Arthritis
- Being tested
- Baricitinib, TNF Inhibitor
- Medical subject headings
- Arthritis, Rheumatoid
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
BaricitinibDrug
Also called LY3009104
Administered orally.
TNF InhibitorDrug
Also called Etanercept, Adalimumab
Administered subcutaneously.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Baricitinib 2mg | Experimental | Participants received 2 milligrams (mg) of baricitinib once daily until the planned number of adjudicated primary endpoint events occurred or until the data monitoring committee (DMC) recommended early termination. Those with inadequate response at 1-year after start of treatment with baricitinib 2mg could receive rescue treatment with baricitinib 4mg. Receives: Drug: Baricitinib |
| Baricitinib 4mg | Experimental | Participants received 4 mg of baricitinib once daily until the planned number of adjudicated primary endpoint events occurred or until the DMC recommended early termination. Receives: Drug: Baricitinib |
| Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) Inhibitor | Active comparator | Participants received a TNF inhibitor (adalimumab or etanercept) administered according to approved local labeling until the planned number of adjudicated primary endpoint events occurred or until the DMC recommended early termination. Receives: Drug: TNF Inhibitor |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Pooled JAJA and JAJD: Time From First Dose of Study Treatment to First Event of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) [Combined Baricitinib Dose Versus TNF Inhibitor]
Time from first dose of study treatment to first event of VTE was evaluated using hazard ratio as the measure of treatment effect, estimated from Cox proportional hazards regression model. The analysis was based on pooled data from studies JAJA (NCT03915964) and JAJD (NCT04086745) and was stratified by study, with treatment group and randomization stratification factors (VTE history, age/Body Mass Index (BMI) combination, prior inadequate response or intolerance to a TNF inhibitor, and geographic region) as explanatory variables.
Measured: From the first dose of study treatment up to 30 days after the last dose or the last study visit, whichever occurs first (approximately up to 6.1 years for JAJA and 5.3 years for JAJD participants)
Secondary outcomes (6)
Pooled JAJA and JAJD: Time From First Dose of Study Treatment to First Event of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) [Individual Baricitinib Dose Versus TNF Inhibitor]
Time from first dose of study treatment to first event of VTE was evaluated using hazard ratio as the measure of treatment effect, estimated from Cox proportional hazards regression model. The analysis was based on pooled data from studies JAJA (NCT03915964) and JAJD (NCT04086745) and was stratified by study, with treatment group and randomization stratification factors (VTE history, age/Body Mass Index (BMI) combination, prior inadequate response or intolerance to a TNF inhibitor, and geographic region) as explanatory variables.
Measured: From the first dose of study treatment up to 30 days after the last dose or the last study visit, whichever occurs first (approximately up to 6.1 years for JAJA and 5.3 years for JAJD participants)
Pooled JAJA and JAJD: Time From First Dose of Study Treatment to First Arterial Thromboembolic Event (ATE) [Combined and Individual Baricitinib Dose Versus TNF Inhibitor]
Time from first dose of study treatment to first ATE was evaluated using hazard ratio as the measure of treatment effect, estimated from Cox proportional hazards regression model. The analysis was based on pooled data from studies JAJA (NCT03915964) and JAJD (NCT04086745) and was stratified by study, with treatment group and randomization stratification factors (VTE history, age/BMI combination, prior inadequate response or intolerance to a TNF inhibitor, and geographic region) as explanatory variables.
Measured: From the first dose of study treatment up to 30 days after the last dose or the last study visit, whichever occurs first (approximately up to 6.1 years for JAJA and 5.3 years for JAJD participants)
Pooled JAJA and JAJD: Time From First Dose of Study Treatment to First Major Adverse Cerebro-Cardiovascular Event (MACE) [Combined and Individual Baricitinib Dose Versus TNF Inhibitor]
Time from first dose of study treatment to first MACE was evaluated using hazard ratio as the measure of treatment effect, estimated from Cox proportional hazards regression model. The analysis was based on pooled data from studies JAJA (NCT03915964) and JAJD (NCT04086745) and was stratified by study, with treatment group and randomization stratification factors (VTE history, age/BMI combination, prior inadequate response or intolerance to a TNF inhibitor, and geographic region) as explanatory variables.
Measured: From the first dose of study treatment up to 30 days after the last dose or the last study visit, whichever occurs first (approximately up to 6.1 years for JAJA and 5.3 years for JAJD participants)
Pooled JAJA and JAJD: Time From First Dose of Study Treatment to First Malignancy (Excluding Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer [NMSC]) [Combined and Individual Baricitinib Dose Versus TNF Inhibitor]
Time from first dose of study treatment to first malignancy (excluding NMSC) was evaluated using hazard ratio as the measure of treatment effect, estimated from Cox proportional hazards regression model. The analysis was based on pooled data from studies JAJA (NCT03915964) and JAJD (NCT04086745) and was stratified by study, with treatment group and randomization stratification factors (VTE history, age/BMI combination, prior inadequate response or intolerance to a TNF inhibitor, and geographic region) as explanatory variables.
Measured: From the first dose of study treatment up to 30 days after the last dose or the last study visit, whichever occurs first (approximately up to 6.1 years for JAJA and 5.3 years for JAJD participants)
Pooled JAJA and JAJD: Time From First Dose of Study Treatment to First Opportunistic Infection [Combined and Individual Baricitinib Dose Versus TNF Inhibitor]
Time from first dose of study treatment to first opportunistic infection was evaluated using hazard ratio as the measure of treatment effect, estimated from Cox proportional hazards regression model. The analysis was based on pooled data from studies JAJA (NCT03915964) and JAJD (NCT04086745) and was stratified by study, with treatment group and randomization stratification factors (VTE history, age/BMI combination, prior inadequate response or intolerance to a TNF inhibitor, and geographic region) as explanatory variables.
Measured: From the first dose of study treatment up to 30 days after the last dose or the last study visit, whichever occurs first (approximately up to 6.1 years for JAJA and 5.3 years for JAJD participants)
Pooled JAJA and JAJD: Time From First Dose of Study Treatment to First Serious Infection [Combined and Individual Baricitinib Dose Versus TNF Inhibitor]
Time from first dose of study treatment to first serious infection was evaluated using hazard ratio as the measure of treatment effect, estimated from Cox proportional hazards regression model. The analysis was based on pooled data from studies JAJA (NCT03915964) and JAJD (NCT04086745) and was stratified by study, with treatment group and randomization stratification factors (VTE history, age/BMI combination, prior inadequate response or intolerance to a TNF inhibitor, and geographic region) as explanatory variables.
Measured: From the first dose of study treatment up to 30 days after the last dose or the last study visit, whichever occurs first (approximately up to 6.1 years for JAJA and 5.3 years for JAJD participants)

What does this phase mean?
Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Jun 2026). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Pooled JAJA and JAJD: Time From First Dose of Study Treatment to First Event of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) [Combined Baricitinib Dose Versus TNF Inhibitor] (time frame: From the first dose of study treatment up to 30 days after the last dose or the last study visit, whichever occurs first (approximately up to 6.1 years for JAJA and 5.3 years for JAJD participants)). 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?
