Study Details

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if baricitinib in combination with a background steroid-sparing medication can treat active cardiac sarcoidosis in adults. The main question it aims to answer is: \- In patients with active cardiac sarcoidosis, does treatment with baricitinib improve cardiac sarcoidosis disease activity as assessed by changes on cardiac FDG-PET/CT? Participants will: * Take baricitinib in combination with a steroid-sparing therapy for up to 16 weeks * Visit the clinic every two to four weeks for checkups and tests * Be asked to complete questionnaires to see how they feel on baricitinib and medication diaries to record when they take baricitinib

Arms

  • Experimental: baricitinib + steroid-sparing drug +/- glucocorticoid taper
    * Participants will be treated with baricitinib 4 mg daily for up to 16 weeks in combination with a background steroid sparing medication * Participants who are on steroids at the time of enrollment will continue the steroid at a dose of prednisone (or equivalent) ≤ 20mg PO daily at Baseline and complete an 8 week taper of their steroid medication per a standardized protocol
