tofacitinib and Chemical-and-Drug-Induced-Liver-Injury

One-third of patients with severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) do not achieve remission or low disease activity, or they have side effects from cDMARD and bDMARD. They will need a new treatment option such as the small molecule JAK inhibitors. In this systematic review, we evaluate the efficacy and safety data of the current jakinibs: tofacitinib, peficitinib, decernotinib, upadacitinib, baricitinib and filgotinib in patients in whom treatment with conventional or biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (cDMARD and/or bDMARD) failed.. We searched for randomized controlled trials comparing efficacy and safety of jakinibs for RA treatment using the Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, and clinicaltrials.gov databases with the terms: "rheumatoid arthritis" OR "arthritis rheumatoid" OR "RA" AND "inhibitor" OR "jak inhibitor" AND "clinical trial" OR "treatment" OR "therapy".. All jakinibs achieved good results in ACR 20, 50, 70 and with CRP-DAS28 for LDA and remission, upadacitinib showed better results compared to the others. In ESR-DAS28 for remission, tofacitinib achieved the best result. Regarding the safety of all jakinibs, peficitinib, baricitinib and filgotinib did not register deaths in their studies unlike tofacitinib that presented 11 deaths. Despite all benefits of jakinibs, the use in patients with severe liver and kidney disease should be avoided.. Jakinibs in monotherapy or in combination with methotrexate can be considered a viable alternative in the treatment of moderate-to-severe RA. Even after failures with combination of cDMARDS and bDMARDS, jakinibs demonstrated efficacy.

The constitutional isomers and tautomers of oxadiazolones, as well as their mono- and disulfur analogues, were calculated at the B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ level. Four groups of 30 molecules each were considered: oxadiazolone, oxadiazolthione, thiadiazolone, and thiadiazolthione isomers. The compounds were categorized into six groups according to permutations of three heteroatoms in the five-membered ring. Additionally, each of the constitutional isomer was considered to have five tautomers conserving stable five-membered ring: two NH tautomers, two rotameric OH (or SH) forms and one CH. La trombocitosis es un hallazgo casual frecuente en pediatría. En niños, predominan las formas secundarias, siendo las infecciones su causa más prevalente. Se distinguen 4 grados de trombocitosis en función del número de plaquetas; en la forma extrema, se supera el 1.000.000/mm. Endoscopic thrombin injection was similar to glue injection in achieving successful hemostasis of AGVH. However, a higher incidence of complications may be associated with glue injection.

The Janus kinase (JAK) is a crucial intracellular signaling hub for numerous cytokines, which is extensively involved in the activation of inflammatory cascade and the induction of inflammatory injury. JAK inhibition provides protective effects in several inflammation-based disorders, but the potential effects of JAK inhibitor in inflammation-based acute hepatitis remain to be investigated.. Acute hepatitis is induced by Lipopolysaccharide/D-galactosamine (LPS/D-Gal) in mice with or without the JAK inhibitor Tofacitinib administration. The degree of liver injury, the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and induction of hepatocytes apoptosis were determined. The results indicated that treatment with Tofacitinib decreased the levels of aminotransferases, attenuated the histological abnormalities in liver and decreased the plasma levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in LPS/D-Gal-insulted mice. In addition, Tofacitinib suppressed the activation of the caspase cascade, decreased the level of cleaved caspase-3, and reduced the count of TUNEL-positive cells.. Treatment with Tofacitinib alleviated LPS/D-Gal-induced acute hepatitis. JAK maybe become a promising target for the control of inflammation-based liver disorders.

Drug-induced liver injury is an acute or chronic liver damage in response to drugs, herbals, and any chemical compound.. In the present work, liver failure following the use of tofacitinib was reported. The patient was an 18-year-old iranian woman without any history of underlying disease. She complained of alopecia areata, and tofacitinib was administered for disease management. Following adherence to tofacitinib medication, partial recovery was obtained. At the time of hospitalization, the patient had a stable condition and only anorexia, jaundice, and elevation of liver enzymes were reported. During hospitalization, liver injury progressed and liver transplantation was suggested. After drug-induced liver injury diagnosis, the use of the drug was discontinued and the patient underwent supportive treatment. The patient recovered without any severe sequelae.. Tofacitinib is a Janus kinase inhibitor that is useful in the treatment of disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ulcerative colitis. Until now, the severe side effect of this drug has not been reported and in most cases it is used as a last resort, but here we report a rare side effect of this drug.

The bile salt export pump (BSEP) is expressed at the canalicular domain of hepatocytes, where it serves as the primary route of elimination for monovalent bile acids (BAs) into the bile canaliculi. The most compelling evidence linking dysfunction in BA transport with liver injury in humans is found with carriers of mutations that render BSEP nonfunctional. Based on mounting evidence, there appears to be a strong association between drug-induced BSEP interference and liver injury in humans; however, causality has not been established. For this reason, drug-induced BSEP interference is best considered a susceptibility factor for liver injury as other host- or drug-related properties may contribute to the development of hepatotoxicity. To better understand the association between BSEP interference and liver injury in humans, over 600 marketed or withdrawn drugs were evaluated in BSEP expressing membrane vesicles. The example of a compound that failed during phase 1 human trials is also described, AMG 009. AMG 009 showed evidence of liver injury in humans that was not predicted by preclinical safety studies, and BSEP inhibition was implicated. For 109 of the drugs with some effect on in vitro BSEP function, clinical use, associations with hepatotoxicity, pharmacokinetic data, and other information were annotated. A steady state concentration (C(ss)) for each of these annotated drugs was estimated, and a ratio between this value and measured IC₅₀ potency values were calculated in an attempt to relate exposure to in vitro potencies. When factoring for exposure, 95% of the annotated compounds with a C(ss)/BSEP IC₅₀ ratio ≥ 0.1 were associated with some form of liver injury. We then investigated the relationship between clinical evidence of liver injury and effects to multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs) believed to play a role in BA homeostasis. The effect of 600+ drugs on MRP2, MRP3, and MRP4 function was also evaluated in membrane vesicle assays. Drugs with a C(ss)/BSEP IC₅₀ ratio ≥ 0.1 and a C(ss)/MRP IC₅₀ ratio ≥ 0.1 had almost a 100% correlation with some evidence of liver injury in humans. These data suggest that integration of exposure data, and knowledge of an effect to not only BSEP but also one or more of the MRPs, is a useful tool for informing the potential for liver injury due to altered BA transport.
