Tofacitinib: efficiency and safety in long-term use

https://doi.org/10.21518/2079-701X-2019-1-64-71

Abstract

The article presents the data of international and domestic controlled studies, in which the effectiveness of topacitinib in the period of 6-24 months is evaluated in respect of clinical and laboratory manifestations of RA activity, progression of destructive arthritis and functional ability of rheumatoid arthritis patients. Also the data of efficiency and safety of tofacitinib in long terms - up to 96 months - are given. According to the results of short- and long-term studies, tofacitinib is a highly effective drug for the treatment of patients with active RA who have not responded to standard therapy with UCVD and GIBP. Tofacitinib is also highly effective in monotherapy. Tolerability of the drug is comparable with other variants of RA treatment.
