Eventos Adversos de Influenza en Pacientes con Artritis Reumatoide, Colitis Ulcerosa o Pacientes con Artritis Psoriásica en los Programas de Desarrollo Clínico de Tofacitinib
Rheumatol Ther. 2022. Epub ahead of print doi: 10.1007/s40744-022-00507-z
This post-hoc analysis of 31 clinical trials in ulcerative colitis, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis concludes that combined influenza adverse event incidence rates were highest in ulcerative colitis, while in each indication they were generally similar across tofacitinib, placebo, and comparator groups.

Incidencia de Eventos Tromboembólicos Arteriales y Venosos Reportados en Los Programas de Desarrollo de Tofacitinib en Artritis Reumatoide, Psoriasis y Artritis Psoriásica y de Datos de Mundo Real

Concerns surrounding increased rates of PE and cardiovascular associated deaths has led to black box warnings when prescribing JAK inhibitors. As such, ongoing investigations regarding cardiovascular and VTE event risks in JAK inhibitor therapies, both clinical and real-world, are vital. Mease and colleagues consider data from clinical tofacitinib development programmes, and the ongoing real-data study A3921133. Conclusions from data analysis state that those with pre-existing cardiovascular and...
Análisis Integrado de Seguridad de Tofacitinib en Artritis Psoriásica en Estudios de Fase 3 y de Extensión a Largo Plazo y Comparación con Datos Observacionales de Mundo Real
Drug Saf. 2020;43:379-392
Patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) had similar safety profile with TOF to that of other systemic therapies in real-world settings, except for the known risk of HZ. Treatment recommendations from EULAR and GRAPPA for patients with PsA vary according to adverse prognostic risk factors, disease manifestations and responsiveness to prior treatment. Safety concerns for most PsA therapies include gastrointestinal AEs, hepatotoxicity, opportunistic infections (OIs) including TB, and SIEs. This stu...
Changes in Lipid Levels and Incidence of Cardiovascular Events Following Tofacitinib Treatment in Patients with Psoriatic Arthritis: A Pooled Analysis Across Phase 3 and Long-Term Extension Studies
Arthritis Care Res (Hoboken) 2019;71(10):1387–95
Serum lipid level increases at month 3 following TOF treatment in PsA were consistent with observation in RA and psoriasis. The risk of CV disease is higher in people with PsA versus the general population – comparable with the well-documented rates seen in RA and diabetes. The reasons for this are not fully elucidated, but it has been suggested that there is an association between peripheral joint inflammation and lipid dysregulation in PsA. This post hoc analysis of pooled data from OPAL Broad...
Efficacy and Safety of Tofacitinib in Older and Younger Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Clin Exp Rheumatol 2017 Jan 4
In this analysis of patients with moderate to severe RA treated with tofacitinib (TOF) in Phase 3 and long-term extension (LTE) studies, patients aged 65 years had similar efficacy and a numerically higher risk of SAEs and discontinuations due to AEs compared with younger patients.The Phase 3 population included patients from five trials (n=3111) of TOF 5 mg or 10 mg BID or placebo. The LTE population (n=4102) included patients from two studies who had participated in Phase 1, 2 or 3 TOF studie...
