Refractory skin ulcers and afebrile bacteremia with Staphylococcus aureus in anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 antibody-positive dermatomyositis: a case report. (PubMed, Mod Rheumatol Case Rep)
Anti-MDA5-positive DM was diagnosed, and she was treated with triple therapy combined with tofacitinib because poor prognostic factors existed...Subsequent antibiotic therapy resolved both the cutaneous and pulmonary lesions. This case highlights the importance of considering bacteremia and performing blood cultures when DM-related skin ulcers resist conventional treatments, even without fever during immunosuppressive therapy.

Tofacitinib Efficacy/Safety in Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis by Baseline Body Mass Index: A Post Hoc Analysis of Phase 2/3 Trials. (PubMed, Rheumatol Ther)
Regardless of baseline BMI category, efficacy was greater with tofacitinib versus placebo in patients with AS, and no treatment effect differences between categories were observed, with exceptions for BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 (more active/treatment-refractory disease and a smaller sample size). Overall, tofacitinib safety was generally comparable across categories; however, AE/SAE rates with tofacitinib were higher in the BMI < 25 kg/m2 category (which had more current smokers). This post hoc analysis demonstrates that tofacitinib can be considered as a treatment option for AS, regardless of baseline BMI category; however, interpretation was limited by small sample sizes and differences in sample sizes and baseline characteristics across categories.

Mycophenolate Mofetil, an Inhibitor of Inosine Monophosphate Dehydrogenase, and Tofacitinib, a Janus Kinase Inhibitor, Attenuate Airway Inflammation and Hyperresponsiveness in a Mouse Model of Allergic Asthma. (PubMed, Molecules)
In turn, the results indicate that the anti-asthmatic action induced by the studied agents is not mediated by the generation of forkhead box protein 3-expressing CD4+ regulatory T cells. Clinical implication of the the results suggest that MMF and TFB may exert anti-asthmatic action, and thus they may be considered therapeutic options for the treatment of allergic asthma cases resistant to conventional/existing treatment.

Transdermal Delivery of Tofacitinib Citraste via Mannose-Decorated Transferosomes Loaded with Tofacitinib Citrate in Arthritic Joints. (PubMed, Mol Pharm)
Furthermore, significantly lower tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα), IL-6, and IL-1β levels (P < 0.05) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in homogenates of the joints treated with MDTs than in untreated arthritic joints. In conclusion, this study proposed effective MDTs that could deliver tofacitinib directly to inflamed joints possibly by targeting the macrophages circulating in the proximity of the site of inflammation.

Tofacitinib Safety and Effectiveness in Canadian Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis by Cardiovascular Risk Enrichment: Subanalysis of the CANTORAL Study. (PubMed, Rheumatol Ther)
In concordance with studies of background risk, AEs were more common in patients with CV risk enrichment, particularly those aged ≥ 65 years. Tofacitinib effectiveness/persistence were generally similar regardless of CV risk enrichment. These findings support individualised treatment benefit-risk assessment, including CV assessment/management, to optimise RA outcomes.

Favorable Response to Adjuvant Tofacitinib in a Case of Anti-Melanoma Differentiation-Associated Gene-5 Antibody Positive Clinically Amyopathic Dermatomyositis. (PubMed, Indian Dermatol Online J)
She was treated with rituximab along with oral glucocorticoid and other supportive treatment to which she didn't respond adequately. So, we added tofacitinib as adjuvant therapy in our patient. Post-six months of commencement of adjuvant tofacitinib, patient experienced remarkable improvement in cutaneous features as well as in pulmonary fibrosis.

Peficitinib Halts Acute Kidney Injury Via JAK/STAT3 and Growth Factors Immunomodulation. (PubMed, Eur J Pharmacol)
Moreover, peficitinib decreased renal protein levels and gene expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokines; interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interferon gamma (IFN-γ). These findings suggest that peficitinib is helpful in halting AKI progression into chronic kidney disease through modulating JAK/STAT3 dependent inflammatory pathways and growth factors involved in normal glomerular function.

Successful treatment of Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA-5) antibody-positive dermatomyositis with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease complicated by bilateral breast cancer following the additional tofacitinib: A case report. (PubMed, Mod Rheumatol Case Rep)
To our knowledge, this is the first report of MDA5-DM complicated by breast cancer, as well as the first case of JAK inhibitor use for MDA5-DM with cancer. For curative treatment of MD5-DM with RP-ILD, if comorbid cancers are found, collaboration with oncologists to balance the efficacy and adverse events of MDA5-DM with RP-ILD therapy is essential in determining the appropriate type and timing of treatment, which could lead to a favorable outcome.

Computational insights into rational design and virtual screening of pyrazolopyrimidine derivatives targeting Janus kinase 3 (JAK3). (PubMed, Front Chem)
Subsequent development led to the creation of nine potent molecules, with derivatives 43 and 46 showing exceptional affinity upon evaluation through molecular dynamics simulation and MM/GBSA calculations over 300 nanoseconds, comparable to tofacitinib, an approved RA drug. However, compounds L21 and L46 demonstrated stable performance, suggesting their effectiveness in treating rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune conditions associated with JAK3 inhibition.

Pyrimidine compounds BY4003 and BY4008 inhibit glioblastoma cells growth via modulating JAK3/STAT3 signaling pathway. (PubMed, Neurotherapeutics)
In this study, novel pyrimidine compounds, BY4003 and BY4008, were synthesized to target the JAK3/STAT3 signaling pathway, and their therapeutic efficacy and mechanisms of action were evaluated and compared with Tofacitinib in U251, A172, LN428 and patient-derived glioblastoma cells...Results showed decreased expression of STAT3-associated proteins, including p-STAT3, CyclinD1, and Bcl-2, and increased expression of Bax, a pro-apoptotic protein, as well as significant down-regulation of STAT3 and STAT3-related genes. These findings suggested that BY4003 and BY4008 could inhibit GBM growth by suppressing the JAK3/STAT3 signaling pathway, providing valuable insights into the therapeutic development of GBM.
