Article Synopsis
- Tofacitinib is an oral medication for ulcerative colitis (UC), and a study reviewed its safety over a maximum exposure of 9.2 years across multiple clinical trials.
- The analysis included data from over 1,150 patients on varying dosages, revealing that 85.9% experienced adverse events (AEs), with serious AEs affecting 22.0% of participants.
- Overall, the safety profile was consistent, showing that most adverse events were rare, except for herpes zoster (HZ) and serious infections (SIs).
Purpose: Previous reviews produced weak evidence regarding the responsiveness of the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ-32) to changes in ulcerative colitis (UC) health indicators. This systematic review and meta-analysis provide an updated synthesis on IBDQ-32 responsiveness.
Methods: A systematic literature review identified 11 articles reporting IBDQ-32 responder analyses in randomized control trials, which were included in a random effects meta-analysis, and 15 articles linking IBDQ-32 change to change in UC health indicators, which were summarized narratively.
Background And Aims: Tofacitinib is an oral small molecule Janus kinase [JAK] inhibitor for the treatment of ulcerative colitis. We report an integrated summary of tofacitinib safety [exposure: ≤7.8 years] from the global clinical programme.

We report a model-informed drug development approach for bridging efficacy from immediate-release (IR) to extended-release (XR) tofacitinib formulations in patients with UC. IR-XR efficacy bridging was supported by exposure-response analysis of phase 3 induction/maintenance studies of the IR formulation in UC to identify exposure metrics relevant for efficacy.

These post hoc analyses assessed associations between C-reactive protein (CRP), partial Mayo score (PMS), and efficacy outcomes during tofacitinib induction in UC.
Methods: Patients received tofacitinib 10 mg twice daily (BID) in an 8-week, phase 2 induction study and 2 identical, 8-week, phase 3 induction studies (OCTAVE Induction 1&2); induction nonresponders (IndNR) received an additional 8 weeks of tofacitinib 10 mg BID in an open-label, long-term extension study.
Background And Aims: Tofacitinib is an oral, small molecule Janus kinase inhibitor for the treatment of ulcerative colitis. We present primary completion analysis from RIVETING, an ongoing, double-blind, randomised, parallel-group trial evaluating efficacy and safety of tofacitinib dose reduction to 5 mg twice daily [BID] versus remaining on 10 mg BID in patients in stable remission on tofacitinib 10 mg BID maintenance therapy.
Methods: Patients had received tofacitinib 10 mg BID for ≥ 2 consecutive years and been in stable remission for ≥ 6 months before enrolment.
