JAK inhibitors: Understanding

JAK inhibitors: Overview

Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors are small molecules approximately 400 Da that could be administrated as oral medicines. JAKs are phosphotransferases that bind to the intracellular domains of cytokine receptors and transmit signals to activate immune responses. The family of cytokines that signal via JAKs includes many interleukins, interferons, colony stimulating factors and hormone like cytokines (such as erythropoietin). The receptors for these cytokines signal via various combinations of four JAKs (JAK1, JAK2, JAK3 and TYK2). First-generation jakinibs, such as tofacitinib and baricitinib (and oclacitinib in dogs), block more than one JAK, and thereby can inhibit a large number of cytokines; these and other pan-jakinibs are being investigated as therapeutic agents for a wide variety of autoimmune diseases. Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors (jakinibs) that target downstream signalling by a large range of cytokines are effective in treating autoimmune and rheumatic diseases. Common adverse effects include infection, anaemia, neutropenia, lymphopenia and hyperlipidaemia. These effects are expected owing to the inhibition of multiple JAKs and many cytokines and the rate of infections in patients treated with these drugs is similar to the rate with other immunosuppressive drugs and biologic agents. JAKs were recognized as a family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases which were composed of four members in mammals: JAK1, JAK2, JAK3 and tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2). They transmit signals from cell membrane receptors to members of the signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) family.

The JAK-STAT signaling pathway can be activated by a variety of cytokines, which are major contributors to a lot of immune-mediated diseases. Thus, inhibiting JAK-mediated signaling might benefit the treatment of autoimmune diseases. In fact, an overwhelming body of evidence has established that inhibition of JAK-STAT pathway is effective in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Recently many of the cytokines involved in PsA pathogenesis are also identified to be mediated by JAK-STAT pathway such as those related to the interleukin (IL)-12/23 and IL-17 axes. Numerous cytokines signal via the JAK–STAT cascades, which are important for the immune response, host defense and inflammation. Moreover, cytokines are the major drivers in immune‐mediated disease. Therefore, it is no surprise that the blocking of several JAK kinase isoforms now is a new chapter in the treatment of several cancers and autoimmune diseases. Clinical trials with several JAK inhibitors are ongoing from cancer such as myelofibrosis to autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis. In the future, it is possible that several other JAK inhibitors also to be effective in multiple disorders therapy.

Report Highlights

In December 2022, Incyte and CMS Aesthetics announced that the companies had entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement for the development and commercialization of ruxolitinib cream, a novel cream formulation of Incyte’s selective JAK inhibitor ruxolitinib, for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory dermatologic diseases in Greater China and certain countries in Southeast Asia.

In September 2022, -Bristol Myers Squibb announced new two-year results from the POETYK PSO long-term extension (LTE) trial demonstrating clinical efficacy was maintained with continuous Sotyktu™ (deucravacitinib) treatment in adult patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. This analysis assessed patients from the pivotal POETYK PSO-1 trial who transitioned into the LTE trial. At 112 weeks of Sotyktu treatment, modified non-responder imputation (mNRI) response rates were 82.4% for Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) 75, 55.2% for PASI 90 and 66.5% for static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) 0/1.

In June 2022, Eli Lilly and Incyte announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had approved OLUMIANT® (baricitinib), a once-daily pill, as a first-in-disease systemic treatment for adults with severe alopecia areata (AA), available as 4-mg, 2-mg and 1-mg tablets.

In July 2022, AbbVie announced that it has submitted applications for a new indication to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA) for upadacitinib (RINVOQ®, 45 mg [induction dose] and 15 mg and 30 mg [maintenance dose]) for the treatment of adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease.

In March 2022, AbbVie announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved RINVOQ® (upadacitinib) for the treatment of adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) who have had an inadequate response or intolerance to one or more tumor necrosis factor (TNF) blockers. This FDA approval is the first indication for RINVOQ in gastroenterology and is supported by efficacy and safety data from three Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical studies.

In January 2022, AbbVie announced the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved RINVOQ® (upadacitinib) for the treatment of moderate to severe atopic dermatitis in adults and children 12 years of age and older whose disease did not respond to previous treatment and is not well controlled with other pills or injections, including biologic medicines, or when use of other pills or injections is not recommended.

Currently, the drug is being evaluated in the Phase II for the treatment in patients with Gastric cancer and Oesophageal cancer. Multiple Phase I/II clinical trials in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and solid tumors are currently ongoing in Australia and China. The primary mechanism of action for MAX-40279 in AML is to overcome resistance to FGFR bypass activation with FLT3 inhibitors through effective inhibition of the dual FLT3/FGFR targets. MAX-40279 also has multiple inhibitory mechanisms in solid tumors: preclinical studies have shown inhibition of multiple tyrosine kinases by MAX-40279. In addition, MAX-40279 can inhibit hematopoietic progenitor kinase 1 (HPK1) and relieve the negative regulation of HPK1 on T cell receptor (TCR) pathway. Furthermore, through translational research, Maxinovel scientists identified a potential biomarker, an adaptor protein that can bind to multiple tyrosine kinases, may be predictive of response to MAX-40279 treatment.
