AbstractBaricitinib is an oral selective inhibitor of Janus kinase (JAK)1 and JAK2 that has proved effective and well tolerated in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in an extensive programme of clinical studies of patients with moderate-to-severe disease. In a phase 2b dose-ranging study of baricitinib in combination with traditional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in RA patients, magnetic resonance imaging showed that baricitinib 2 mg or 4 mg once daily provided dose-dependent suppression of synovitis, osteitis, erosion and cartilage loss at weeks 12 and 24 versus placebo. These findings correlated with clinical outcomes and were confirmed in three phase 3 studies (RA-BEGIN, RA-BEAM and RA-BUILD) using X-rays to assess structural joint damage. In patients naïve to DMARDs (RA-BEGIN study), baricitinib 4 mg once daily as monotherapy or combined with methotrexate produced smaller mean changes in structural joint damage than methotrexate monotherapy at week 24. Differences versus methotrexate were statistically significant for combined therapy. In patients responding inadequately to methotrexate (RA-BEAM study), baricitinib 4 mg plus background methotrexate significantly inhibited structural joint damage at week 24 versus placebo, and the results were comparable to those observed with adalimumab plus background methotrexate. In patients responding inadequately to conventional synthetic DMARDs (csDMARDs; RA-BUILD study), baricitinib 4 mg again significantly inhibited radiographic progression compared with placebo at week 24. Benefits were also observed with baricitinib 2 mg once daily, but the effects of baricitinib 4 mg were more robust. The positive effects of baricitinib 4 mg on radiographic progression continued over 1 and 2 years in the long-term extension study RA-BEYOND, with similar effects to adalimumab and significantly greater effects than placebo. Findings from the phase 3 studies of patients with RA were supported by preclinical studies, which showed that baricitinib has an osteoprotective effect, increasing mineralisation in bone-forming cells. In conclusion, baricitinib 4 mg once daily inhibits radiographic joint damage progression in patients with moderate-to-severe RA who are naïve to DMARDs or respond inadequately to csDMARDs, including methotrexate, and the beneficial effects are similar to those observed with adalimumab.

Abstract Background/Aims  Baricitinib (BARI) is an oral, reversible, selective JAK1/2 inhibitor. Treatment with once-daily oral BARI resulted in low rates of radiographic progression for up to 2 years in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Here, we evaluate the radiographic progression of structural joint damage in patients with RA over 5 years of treatment with BARI. Methods  This included patients who completed three Phase 3 trials, RA-BEGIN (DMARD-naive), RA-BUILD (csDMARD-IR), or RA-BEAM (MTX-IR), and enrolled in long-term extension study, RA-BEYOND. Patients receiving blinded BARI at the conclusion of Phase 3 trials remained on that dose (2mg/4mg, once daily) in RA-BEYOND. At 52 weeks, DMARD-naive patients receiving methotrexate(MTX) or combination therapy(BARI 4mg+MTX) were switched to BARI 4mg monotherapy; MTX-IR patients receiving adalimumab(ADA) were switched to BARI 4mg on background MTX. At 24 weeks, csDMARD-IR patients receiving placebo(PBO) were switched to BARI 4mg on background csDMARD. Analysis population included patients who had baseline and at least one radiograph collected after 2 years. Radiographic progression of structural joint damage (Years 3-5) was determined by changes from baseline in van der Heijdemodified Total Sharp Score(ΔmTSS), erosion score, and joint space narrowing. Proportion of patients showing no progression was assessed based on change from baseline mTSS(ΔmTSS) from originating study, using thresholds of 0.5 or smallest detectable change(SDC). Mixedmodel repeatedmeasures and logistic regression models were used to analyze continuous variables and categorical variables, respectively; linear extrapolation was used for imputation of missing data(maximum of 1 year). Results  82.6% (2125/2573) of patients entered long-term extension study. Among DMARD-naive patients, those on initial BARI monotherapy or in combination with MTX had significantly slower radiographic progression(ΔmTSS) versus those on initial MTX at Years 3, 4, 5 (p ≤ 0.05). They had significantly fewer erosions at these time points (p ≤ 0.05). A greater proportion of patients who received initial BARI therapy and BARI+MTX had no radiographic progression versus initial MTX monotherapy using thresholds of 0.5 (p ≤ 0.05). Among MTX-IR patients, those on initial BARI treatment had slower radiographic progression compared to PBO and results were comparable to those on initial ADA treatment at Years 3, 4, 5. A greater proportion of patients who received initial BARI therapy had no radiographic progression versus initial PBO using thresholds of SDC (p ≤ 0.05). Among csDMARD-IR patients, although differences between groups were small, patients on initial BARI 4mg had slowest radiographic progression compared to initial PBO and initial BARI 2mg. At least 74% of the structure data used in the analyses are based on observed data. Conclusion  Treatment with once-daily oral BARI maintained low rates of radiographic progression for up to 5 years in different patient populations with RA.

ObjectivesTo evaluate radiographic progression of structural joint damage over 2 years in patients with rheumatoid arthritis from baricitinib clinical trials who were disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD)–naïve or had an inadequate response to conventional synthetic DMARDs (csDMARD-IR).MethodsPatients had completed one of three phase III studies and entered a long-term extension (LTE) study, continuing on the same baricitinib dose as at originating study completion. At 52 weeks, DMARD-naïve patients receiving methotrexate (MTX) or combination therapy (baricitinib 4 mg+MTX) were switched to baricitinib 4 mg monotherapy (±MTX per investigator opinion); MTX-IR patients receiving adalimumab were switched to baricitinib 4 mg on background MTX. At 24 weeks, csDMARD-IR patients receiving placebo were switched to baricitinib 4 mg on background csDMARD. Radiographs at baseline, year 1 and year 2 were scored using the van der Heijde modified Total Sharp Score. Linear extrapolation was used for missing data.ResultsOf 2573 randomised patients, 2125 (82.6%) entered the LTE, of whom 1893 (89.1%) entered this analysis. At year 2, progression was significantly lower with initial baricitinib (monotherapy or combination therapy) versus initial MTX in DMARD-naïve patients (proportion with non-progression defined by ≤smallest detectable change (SDC): 87.3% baricitinib 4 mg+MTX; 70.6% MTX; p≤ 0.001). In MTX-IR patients, progression with initial baricitinib was significantly lower than with initial placebo and similar to initial adalimumab (≤SDC: 82.7% baricitinib 4 mg; 83.5% adalimumab; 70.6% placebo; p≤0.001). In csDMARD-IR patients, significant benefit was seen with baricitinib 4 mg (≤SDC: 87.2% vs 73.2% placebo; p≤0.01).ConclusionsTreatment with once-daily baricitinib resulted in low rates of radiographic progression for up to 2 years.

Abstract Background Long-term prevention of structural joint damage is a key treatment goal in the management of RA. Upadacitinib (UPA), a JAK1-selective inhibitor, inhibited the progression of structural joint damage at 6 months as monotherapy in methotrexate (MTX)-naïve RA patients and in combination with MTX in patients with inadequate response (IR) to MTX. Objectives: To evaluate the progression of structural joint damage (radiographic) through Week 48 in patients with moderately to severely active RA treated with UPA monotherapy or in combination with MTX. Methods Radiographic progression was assessed in 2 phase 3 randomized controlled trials (RCTs). MTX-naïve patients were randomized to UPA 15 or 30mg QD or MTX monotherapy [SELECT-EARLY, N = 945], while MTX-IR patients were randomized to UPA 15mg QD or adalimumab (ADA) 40 mg eow or placebo (PBO), with continuous background MTX [SELECT-COMPARE, N = 1629]. Both RCTs specifically enrolled patients at high risk for progression of joint damage (high disease activity including elevated hsCRP, presence of baseline erosions and ACPA and/or RF positivity). The mean changes (D) from baseline (BL) in modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS), joint space narrowing (JSN), and erosion scores (ES) as well as the proportion of patients with no radiographic progression (ΔmTSS ≤0) at Weeks 24/26 and 48 were determined in both RCTs. Data were analyzed by linear extrapolation (LE) for missing data imputation and treatment switching, and as observed (AO). Results BL demographics have been reported previously. At Weeks 24/26, UPA as monotherapy and in combination with background MTX significantly inhibited radiographic progression measured by mean DmTSS and the proportion of patients with no radiographic progression vs MTX and PBO, respectively. The significant inhibition of radiographic progression with UPA was maintained through Week 48 vs MTX (LE and AO) in EARLY and vs PBO (LE) in COMPARE. Following the switch of all PBO patients to UPA in COMPARE by Week 26, no further change in mean mTSS was observed through Week 48. The inhibition of radiographic progression vs comparators was not only observed for the overall mTSS scores but also its components - the JSN and ES in both RCTs (LE and AO). Conclusion UPA both as monotherapy, and in combination with background MTX, was effective in inhibiting the progression of structural joint damage through Week 48 in MTX-naïve, and MTX-IR patients, respectively.

Objective To evaluate the effect of baricitinib on inhibiting radiographic progression of structural joint damage over 5 years in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Patients completed 1 of 3 phase 3 baricitinib trials (NCT01711359, NCT01710358, NCT01721057) and entered the long-term extension RA-BEYOND (NCT01885078), in which patients received once-daily 4 mg or 2 mg baricitinib. Across these trials, patients initially receiving methotrexate (MTX) or adalimumab switched to baricitinib 4 mg at week 52. Patients initially receiving placebo switched to baricitinib 4 mg at week 24. Radiographs were scored at baseline and years 2, 3, 4, and 5. Change from baseline in van der Heijde modified Total Sharp Score (ΔmTSS) was computed. Results Overall, 2125/2573 (82.6%) randomized patients entered RA-BEYOND; 1837/2125 (86.4%) entered this analysis. From years 3 to 5, higher proportions of DMARD-naïve patients on initial baricitinib (monotherapy; +MTX) had no progression versus initial MTX (ΔmTSS≤0, year 5: 59.6% baricitinib 4 mg; 66.2% baricitinib 4 mg+MTX; 40.7% MTX). Higher proportions of patients with inadequate response (IR) to MTX on initial baricitinib or adalimumab versus placebo had no progression (ΔmTSS≤0, year 5: 54.8% baricitinib 4 mg; 55.0% adalimumab; 50.3% placebo). Higher proportions of patients with conventional synthetic (cs)DMARD-IR on initial baricitinib 4 mg had less progression versus initial placebo or baricitinib 2 mg (ΔmTSS≤0, year 5: 66.7% baricitinib 4 mg; 58.2% baricitinib 2 mg; 60.0% placebo). Conclusion Oral baricitinib maintained lower levels of radiographic progression than initial csDMARD or placebo through 5 years in patients with active RA.
