Sonelokimab, an IL-17A- and IL-17F- inhibiting nanobody for active psoriatic arthritis: A randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 2 trial

Nat Med 2025; doi.10.1038/s41591-025-03971-6. Epub ahead of print

Reich K,

In this first global clinical study of a nanobody in inflammatory arthritis, sonelokimab, an
IL-17A- and IL-17F-inhibiting nanobody demonstrated strong efficacy across multiple domains including high-hurdle composite joint and skin responses. McInnes et al. reported on the Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, PBO-controlled ARGO trial which evaluated the efficacy and safety of sonelokimab in patients with active PsA.

Understanding Cardiovascular Events with JAK Inhibitors: Tofacitinib Reduces Synovial and Vascular Inflammation but not the Prothrombotic Effects of Inflammatory Cytokines on Endothelium

ACR Open Rheumatol. 2025 Jan;7(1):e11790 doi: 10.1002/acr2.11790.

Zavoriti A and Miossec P

Zavoriti and Miossec explored the impact of tofacitinib on inflammation and coagulation in RA. Tofacitinib reduced synovial and vascular inflammation by inhibiting IFNɣ, IL-17A, and IL-6 production but failed to prevent the prothrombotic effects of inflammatory cytokines on endothelial cells. These findings suggest that while tofacitinib reduces inflammation, it does not mitigate associated thrombotic risk.
