- Percentage of Responders [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]Response is defined according to the Standardization of Uveitis Nomenclature (SUN) criteria as a 2-step decrease in the level of inflammation (anterior chamber cells) or decrease to zero through week 24, in the eye most severely affected at baseline.
- Change from Baseline in SUN Grade of Cells in the Anterior Chamber in the Most Severely Affected Eye [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 24 ]Change from Baseline in SUN Grade of Cells in the Anterior Chamber in the Most Severely Affected Eye

- Percentage of Responders in Participants with Bilateral Uveitis Disease at Baseline [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]Response is defined according to the SUN criteria as a 2-step decrease in the level of anterior chamber cells in the most severely affected eye at baseline (or both eyes if the inflammation grade is the same in both eyes) and a 1-step decrease in the level of anterior chamber cells in the less severely affected eye at baseline.
- Change from Baseline in Visual Acuity Measured by Age-Appropriate Logarithm of the Minimum Angle of Resolution (LogMAR) Test [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 24 ]Change from Baseline in Visual Acuity Measured by Age-Appropriate LogMAR Test

Ages Eligible for Study: | 2 Years to 17 Years (Child) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Participants must have a diagnosis of JIA-U or chronic anterior antinuclear antibody (ANA) positive uveitis without systemic features.
- Participants must have active anterior uveitis, defined as cellular infiltrate in the anterior chamber of SUN criteria grade ≥1+ at screening and randomization, despite prior treatment with adequate doses of topical steroid therapy and methotrexate (MTX).
- Participants must have an inadequate response or intolerance to MTX.
- Participants must be on a stable dose of corticosteroid eye drops for at least 2 weeks prior to screening with a maximum of 4 drops/day/eye at screening.
- Participants and their partners of child bearing potential must agree to use 2 effective methods of contraception for the duration of the study and for at least 1 week following the last dose of investigational product.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Participants must not have a history or presence of any autoimmune inflammatory condition other than JIA, such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.
-
Participants must not have any contraindications to adalimumab.
- Exception: Participants who are biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (bDMARD) inadequate response or intolerance with a contraindication to adalimumab may be enrolled, as they will be assigned to baricitinib.
- Participants must not have increased intraocular pressure ≥25 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) or that required treatment, including increases in medications, surgery, or hospitalization, within 4 weeks prior to baseline that, in the opinion of the investigator, would pose an unacceptable risk to the participant.
- Participants must not have had intraocular surgery within the 3 months prior to screening (such as for cataract(s), glaucoma or vitrectomy).
- Participants must not have a current or recent (<4 weeks prior to baseline) infection.
- Participants must not have a positive test for hepatitis B virus (HBV) at screening.
- Participants must not have evidence of active tuberculosis (TB) or untreated latent TB.
