  • Research summary

    Baricitinib (formerly identified as INCB028050 and LY3009104) is being developed for the treatment of inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and diabetic nephropathy.

    Proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole are the standard treatment for gastrointestinal ulcers and gastric reflux. Omeprazole inhibits gastric acid secretion and thereby makes the gastric environment less acidic and more alkaline, which may alter the absorption of some drugs with acid-base dependent solubility. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of an alkaline gastric environment on exposure to a single dose of 10 mg baricitinib.

    This is a single-site, open-label, 2-period, fixed-sequence study. Each subject will receive a single dose of baricitinib (10 mg) administered alone in Period 1. In Period 2, subjects will receive 40 mg omeprazole QD on Days 3 through 10, and a single dose of 40 mg omeprazole coadministered with 10 mg baricitinib on Day 10.

    The length of study is approximately 12 days from the first dose of study drug in Period 1 to discharge from the CRU at the end of Period 2.
