Baricitinib

Baricitinib is an oral selective inhibitor of Janus kinase 1 and 2. Previous studies have shown that baricitinib significantly reduced the concentration of anti-dsDNA antibodies and downregulated the expression of key cytokines associated with SLE pathogenesis via the JAK and signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT; JAK–STAT) pathway.
