Relapse with active GCA within 6 weeks of study entry where active disease is defined by an ESR ≥30 mm/hr or CRP ≥10 mg/L AND the presence of at least one of the following:~   * Unequivocal cranial symptoms of GCA (new onset or recurrent localized headache, scalp or temporal artery tenderness, otherwise unexplained mouth or jaw pain upon mastication \[i.e., jaw claudication\]).~  * Unequivocal symptoms of PMR, defined as shoulder and/or hip girdle pain associated with inflammatory stiffness.~  * Other feature(s) judged by the clinician investigator to be consistent with GCA or PMR flares (e.g. fever of unknown origin, weight loss, fatigue/malaise, etc.)~3. Clinically stable at baseline visit (study drug initiation) such that the subject is able to safely participate in the standardized taper regimen in the opinion of the investigator.~Exclusion Criteria~1.

All patients who have not received the herpes zoster vaccine at screening will be encouraged (per local guidelines) to do so prior to randomization; vaccination must occur \>4 weeks prior to randomization and start of investigational product. Patients will be excluded if they were exposed to herpes zoster vaccination within 4 weeks of planned randomization.~5. Organ transplant recipients.~6.

Have a history or presence of cardiovascular (including but not limited to uncontrolled hypertension), respiratory, hepatic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, hematological, neurological, or neuropsychiatric disorders, or any other serious and/or unstable illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, could constitute an unacceptable risk when taking investigational product or interfere with the interpretation of data.~9. Are largely or wholly incapacitated permitting little or no self-care, such as being bedridden or confined to a wheelchair.~10. Have an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of \<50 mL/min/1.73 m\^².~11.

Subjects with uterine cervical carcinoma in situ that has been resected with no evidence of recurrence or metastatic disease for at least 3 years may participate in the study~   2. Subjects with basal cell or squamous epithelial skin cancers which have been completely resected with no evidence of recurrence for at least 3 years may participate in the study.~13. Active infections, or history of recurrent infections or have required management of acute or chronic infections as evidenced by any of the following:~    1. Currently on any suppressive therapy for a chronic infection (such as tuberculosis, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex, herpes zoster, or atypical mycobacteria).~   2. History or suspicion of chronic infection (e.g. prosthetic joint infection)~   3. Hospitalization for treatment of infection within 60 days of baseline visit~   4. Use of parenteral (IV or IM) antimicrobials (antibacterial, antifungals, antivirals, or antiparasitic agents) within 60 days of baseline or oral antimicrobials within 30 days of baseline visit for treatment of an active infection. This does not include the use of antibiotics for prophylaxis against pneumocystis pneumonia since this is considered standard of care for patients on prednisone ≥ 20 mg/day for longer than 3 consecutive months.~14. Have had symptomatic herpes zoster infection within 12 weeks prior to screening.~15. Have a history of disseminated/complicated herpes zoster \[for example, multidermatomal involvement, ophthalmic zoster or Central Nervous System (CNS) involvement\]~16.

Have known or documented primary immunodeficiency.~19. Have had household contact with a person with active tuberculosis (TB) and did not receive appropriate and documented prophylaxis for TB.~20. Have had evidence of active TB or have previously had evidence of active TB and did not receive appropriate and documented treatment.~21. Have evidence of latent TB as documented by a local lab positive QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test and a normal chest x-ray, unless a patient completes at least 4 weeks of appropriate treatment prior to study entry and agrees to complete the remainder of treatment while in the trial.~    1. If the QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test results are positive, the patient will be considered to have latent TB and will be excluded. If the test is indeterminate, the test may be repeated once within 2 weeks of the initial value. If the repeat test results are again not negative, the subject will be considered to have latent TB (for purposes of this study) and will be excluded.~   2. Exceptions include subjects with a history of active or latent TB who have documented evidence of appropriate treatment and with no history of re-exposure since their treatment was completed. (Such subjects would not be required to undergo the protocol specific TB testing, but would require a baseline chest x-ray).~22. Have a positive test for Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) defined as:~    1. Positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), or~   2. Positive for anti-hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) If any of the Hepatitis B tests have an indeterminate result, confirmatory testing will be performed by an alternate method.~23. Have Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) (positive for anti-hepatitis C antibody with confirmed presence of HCV).~24. Have any of the following specific abnormalities on screening tests:~    1.
