Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Time to restart ART
Up to 24 weeks after the baricitinib treatment alone was started

Time to restart ART will be defined by a plasma HIV-1 RNA viral load greater than or equal to 1000 copies/mL following withdrawal of ART during 24 weeks of baricitinib treatment alone (following 26 weeks of baricitinib plus ART).

Number of Participants who discontinued treatment due to adverse events
Up to 24 weeks after the start of baricitinib alone was started

Participants who permanently discontinued study drug due to treatment-related adverse events.

Incidence of Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Up to 24 weeks after the start of baricitinib alone was started

Number of participants experiencing treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), including serious adverse events.

Secondary Endpoints
Time to a detectable plasma HIV-1 RNA viral load
Up to 24 weeks after baricitinib alone was started.

BaricitinibEXPERIMENTALAdults with well-controlled HIV on ART will be treated for 26 weeks with baricitinib 2 mg per day orally plus their current ART regimen (Step 1). Following 26 weeks of baricitinib plus ART, ART will be interrupted, and the participants will be treated with baricitinib alone for up to 24 weeks (Step 2). If a participant qualifies for ART restart criteria before the end of the maximum 24 weeks of Step 2, they will move to Step 3 early and resume ART, while baricitinib will be discontinued for 24 weeks. Otherwise, participants will remain on baricitinib alone until the end of the 24 weeks of Step 2 and will then resume ART while baricitinib is discontinued for an additional 24 weeks of observation (Step 3).
Interventions
NameTypeDescription
Antiretroviral Therapy (ART)DRUGAntiretroviral Therapy (ART): A treatment regimen for HIV infection that uses a combination of antiretroviral drugs to suppress viral replication, reduce HIV-related morbidity, and prevent transmission. In Step 1, participants will continue their current ART regimen for 26 weeks. In Step 2, participants will interrupt ART. In Step 3, participants will restart ART treatment early if they meet the ART restart criteria before the end of Step 2 (24-week maximum). Otherwise, they will resume ART at the end of Step 2.
Baricitinib (LY3009104) 2 mgDRUGBaricitinib is an orally administered, selective inhibitor of Janus kinase (JAK) 1 and 2. It reduces cytokine-mediated signaling involved in inflammation and immune activation. Baricitinib is FDA-approved for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), atopic dermatitis, and alopecia areata. It has also been authorized for the treatment of COVID-19 in hospitalized patients. During Step 1, Baricitinib will be taken at a dose of 2 mg orally daily for 26 weeks. During Step 2, Baricitinib alone will be continued at a dose of 2 mg orally daily for up to an additional 24 weeks
