Study Details

    This study is an Adaptive Phase 2/3 trial designed to test the safety (Phase 2) and efficacy (Phase 2 and 3) of baricitinib to treat COVID-19. Phase 2 consists of a single-arm, open-label assignment of 20 participants receiving 2 mg baricitinib once daily for 14 days. Phase 3 consists of a single-arm, open-label assignment of 60 additional participants receiving baricitinib at the same dose. In both phases, participants will be monitored daily while hospitalized for 29 days, or until discharge, whichever occurs first. Participants who are discharged will be followed up with via phone on Day 15 and Day 29.
