Results from the open-label, randomised controlled ORAL Surveillance trial find increased risk of malignancies with tofacitinib versus TNFi, highlighting the highest incidence in patients with a history of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease or increasing cardiovascular risk.
Semin Arthritis Rheum. 2023;58:152120
Structured literature review shows a varied incidence of opportunistic infections (OIs) among RA patients exposed to JAK inhibitors.

Data show that the first-in-class MK2 pathway inhibitor ATI-450 was well tolerated and induced sustained anti-inflammatory efficacy over 12 weeks in patients with moderate-to-severe RA.
Ann Rheum Dis. 2023;82(4):575–577 doi: 10.1136/ard-2022-223406
Data suggest that an important difference between P123LTE and ORAL Surveillance was the proportion of patients with a history of atherosclerotic CV disease (ASCVD).

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.
J Rheumatol. 2023;50(1):36–47 doi: 10.3899/jrheum.220152
This systematic review and meta-analysis of studies evaluated the proportion of patients in remission after the dosage of MTX was tapered, and concludes that patients with controlled RA may taper MTX from targeted therapy with a 10% reduction in the ability to sustain remission for up to 18 months.

This post hoc analysis of data from the ORAL Shift study, concludes that DAS28-4(ESR), CDAI remission and SDAI remission are the metrics most likely to reflect actual disease activity, in the context of tofacitinib in a randomised withdrawal of MTX.
RMD Open. 2022;8(2):e002571 doi: 10.1136/rmdopen-2022-002571
Weitz, et al. analyse 291 protein biomarkers and three genetic markers and do not identify a clear mechanistic explanation for higher rates of venous thromboembolism (VTE) with tofacitinib in the ORAL Surveillance study.
Ann Rheum Dis. 2022. Epub ahead of print [05/12/2022] doi: 10.1136/ard-2022-223356
Smolen, et al. provide a 2022 update of the EULAR recommendations for the management of RA with synthetic and biological DMARDs.

Salinas, et al. evaluate baricitinib safety with respect to VTE, MACE, and serious infection relative to TNFi in patients with RA, in routine care and observe an increased risk of VTE in patients taking baricitinib, compared to TNFi.
