- •A history of eczema herpeticum within 12 months, and/or a history of 2 or more episode of eczema herpeticum in the past.
- •Participants who are currently experiencing a skin infection that requires treatment, or is currently being treated, with topical or systemic antibiotics.
- •Have any serious illness that is anticipated to require the use of systemic corticosteroids or otherwise interfere with study participation or require active frequent monitoring (e.g., unstable chronic asthma).
- •Have been treated with the following therapies:
- •Monoclonal antibody for less than 5 half-lives prior to randomization.
- •Received prior treatment with any oral Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor.
- •Received any parenteral corticosteroids administered by intramuscular or intravenous (IV) injection within 2 weeks prior to study entry or within 6 weeks prior to planned randomization or are anticipated to require parenteral injection of corticosteroids during the study.
- •Have had an intra-articular corticosteroid injection within 2 weeks prior to study entry or within 6 weeks prior to planned randomization.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Percentage of Participants Achieving Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) of 0 or 1 With a ≥ 2 Point Improvement (Placebo, 2mg and 4mg Baricitinib)
Time Frame: 16 Weeks
The IGA measures the investigator's global assessment of the participants overall severity of their atopic dermatitis (AD), based on a static, numeric 5-point scale from 0 (clear skin) to 4 (severe disease). The score is based on an overall assessment of the degree of erythema, papulation/induration, oozing/crusting, and lichenification.
Secondary Outcomes
- Percentage of Participants Achieving EASI90(16 Weeks)
- Percentage of Participants Achieving SCORing Atopic Dermatitis 75 (SCORAD75)(16 Weeks)
- Percentage of Participants Achieving a 4-Point Improvement in Itch Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)(16 Weeks)
- Percentage of Participants Achieving IGA of 0 or 1 With a ≥ 2 Point Improvement (Placebo, 1mg Baricitinib)(16 Weeks)
- Change From Baseline in the Score of Item 2 of the Atopic Dermatitis Sleep Scale (ADSS)(Baseline, 16 Weeks)
