A Study of Baricitinib (LY3009104) in Children From 6 Years to Less Than 18 Years of Age With Alopecia Areata

Brief Summary
The main purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of baricitinib for the treatment of severe or very severe alopecia areata (hair loss) in children from 6 years to less than 18 years of age.

The study is divided into 4 periods, a 5-week Screening period, a 36-week Double-Blind Treatment Period, an approximately 2-year Long-term Extension Period, and a 4-week Post-treatment Follow-up period.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

* Enrollment will be fully sequential by age group, with adolescents (12 to less than 18 years old) enrolling before children (6 to less than 12 years old).
* Have severe areata alopecia (AA) for at least 1 year
* Diagnosis for at least 1 year
* Current AA episode of at least 6 months' duration
* SALT score ≥50% at screening and baseline
* History of trial and failure with at least 1 available treatment (topical or other) for AA
* History of psychological counseling related to AA
* Current episode of severe AA of less than 8 years.

* Note: Participants who have severe AA for ≥8 years may be enrolled if episodes of regrowth, spontaneous or under treatment, have been observed on the affected areas over the past 8 years.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Primarily "diffuse" type of AA (characterized by diffuse hair shedding).
* Are currently experiencing other forms of alopecia including, but not limited to trichotillomania, telogen effluvium, chemotherapy-induced hair loss, or any other concomitant conditions (for example, tinea capitis, psoriasis, lupus erythematosus, or secondary syphilis) that would interfere with evaluations of the effect of study medication on AA.
* Are largely or wholly incapacitated permitting little or no self-care, such as being bedridden
* Have uncontrolled arterial hypertension
* Have had major surgery within 8 weeks prior to screening or will require major surgery during the study
* 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 IP or interfere with the interpretation of data.
* Have a positive test for hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection
* Have hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection (positive for anti hepatitis C antibody with confirmed presence of HCV ribonucleic acid \[RNA\]).
* Have evidence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and/or positive HIV antibodies.

Outcome Description
The HADS is a participant-rated instrument used to assess both anxiety and depression and is available in a pediatric self-report for participants ≥12 years old. This instrument consists of 14 item questionnaires, each item is rated on a 4-point scale. Scores for each domain (anxiety and depression) can range from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating greater anxiety or depression.
Outcome Time Frame
Week 36
Outcome Measure
Mean Change from Baseline in Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS)
Outcome Description
The PROMIS Anxiety Short Form (8 questions, 8a v2.0) is available in a pediatric self-report (ages 8 to \<18 years) and for parents/caregivers serving as proxy reporters for their children (youth ages ≥5 years). Both pediatric self-report and proxy-report versions assess anxiety "in the past seven days". Response options range from 1 = Never; 2 = Rarely; 3 = Sometimes; 4 = Often; to 5 = Almost always. Total raw scores are converted to T-Scores with higher scores representing greater anxiety.

Outcome Description
The PROMIS Depression Short Form (8a v2.0 and 6a v2.0) is available in a pediatric self-report (ages 8 to \<18 years) and for parents/caregivers serving as proxy reporters for their children (youth ages ≥5 years). Both pediatric self-report and proxy-report versions assess depression "in the past seven days." Response options range from 1 = Never; 2 = Rarely; 3 = Sometimes; 4 = Often; to 5 = Almost always. Total raw scores are converted to T-Scores with higher scores representing greater depression.

Outcome Description
The PROMIS Peer Relationships Short Form planned to be used in the study measures 2 aspects of social functioning, friendship quality and peer acceptance, and is available in a pediatric self-report (ages 8 to \<18 years) and for parents/caregivers serving as proxy reporters for their children (youth ages 5 to \<8 years).

Outcome Description
The FDLQI is a 10-item validated questionnaire designed for adult (\>16 years old) family members of participants. The questionnaire is completed by family members of the AA participants (for example, parents/caregivers) and measures the secondary impact of the participant's skin disease on family QoL. Response categories include "not at all/not relevant," "only a little," "quite a lot," and "very much," with corresponding scores of 0, 1, 2, and 3, respectively, with unanswered ("not relevant") responses scored as 0.
