Rationale: Limited information is available on the clinical status of people with Cystic Fibrosis (pwCF) carrying 2 nonsense mutations (PTC/PTC). The main objective of this study was to compare disease severity between pwCF PTC/PTC, compound heterozygous for F508del and PTC (F508del/PTC) and homozygous for F508del (F508del+/+).
Methods: Based on the European CF Society Patient Registry clinical data of pwCF living in high and middle income European and neighboring countries, PTC/PTC (n = 657) were compared with F508del+/+ (n = 21,317) and F508del/PTC(n = 4254).
Objectives: To evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of filgotinib (FIL) for Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and limited/no prior methotrexate (MTX) exposure. We present a Japanese population subanalysis of a global randomised-controlled trial at Week 52 and interim long-term extension (LTE) to Week 48 through June 2020.
Methods: Patients were randomised to FIL 200 mg plus MTX, FIL 100 mg plus MTX, FIL 200 mg, or MTX for 52 weeks.
The validity and relevance of histologic disease activity in Crohn's disease (CD) is unclear, owing to disconnects with endoscopic pathology. Here, we explore relationships between endoscopic, histologic, and molecular activity. This post hoc analysis of the Phase 2 FITZROY trial (NCT02048618) assessed baseline and week 10 (W10) inflammation across matched ileal and colonic segments in CD patients receiving filgotinib 200 mg (n = 42) vs placebo (n = 18).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFilgotinib (GS-6034, formerly GLPG0634; Jyseleca) is an oral, preferential Janus kinase (JAK)-1 inhibitor. Preferential inhibition of JAK1 modulates a subset of proinflammatory cytokines within the JAK-signal transducer and activator of transcription pathway, which differ from those inhibited by JAK2 or JAK3. Filgotinib is absorbed extensively and rapidly after oral dosing and is metabolized by carboxylesterase isoform 2 to form its primary active metabolite, GS-829845.
