AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors are an important treatment option for ulcerative colitis, providing rapid onset of action, oral administration, and efficacy even after biologic failure. The 3 approved agents—tofacitinib, filgotinib, and upadacitinib—differ in JAK isoform selectivity, leading to clinically meaningful differences in efficacy and safety. Evidence from network meta-analyses, clinical trials, and real-world studies consistently shows that upadacitinib provides the highest efficacy for induction and maintenance of remission, whereas filgotinib demonstrates the most favorable safety profile. The strong efficacy of upadacitinib and tofacitinib is particularly relevant in patients with severe disease, including acute severe ulcerative colitis, and upadacitinib maintains high efficacy regardless of prior advanced therapy exposure. JAK inhibitors also benefit extraintestinal manifestations. Although risks such as herpes zoster, serious infection, thromboembolism, and major cardiovascular events differ among agents, long-term data suggest generally acceptable safety when used appropriately. Intraclass JAK-to-JAK cycling is feasible, with about half of patients achieving steroid-free clinical remission in retrospective cohorts. Based on mechanistic, clinical, and real-world evidence, filgotinib may be a first-line option for patients with lower disease activity or when safety is a priority, whereas upadacitinib or tofacitinib may be preferred in higher disease activity. Strategically selecting agents may improve durability and outcomes.

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Inflammatory bowel disease is increasingly recognized as a significant clinical entity in India, reflecting the country’s ongoing epidemiological transition. With a rising incidence and an expanding disease spectrum, the limitations of conventional therapeutic agents, such as corticosteroids and thiopurines, have become increasingly evident. This review examines the transformative role of Janus kinase inhibitors, particularly tofacitinib, in redefining therapeutic goals and bridging the gap between medical innovation and real-world implementation in resource-limited settings. Tofacitinib represents a pivotal advancement in the therapeutic landscape of ulcerative colitis (UC) in India, offering the advantages of oral administration, rapid onset of action, predictable pharmacokinetics, and cost-effective generic formulations–thereby overcoming several longstanding barriers to the adoption of advanced therapies. Accumulating real-world evidence from India supports its clinical utility across various phenotypes of UC, including corticosteroid-dependent or refractory disease, acute severe UC, ulcerative proctitis, elderly-onset UC, and in achieving deeper remission endpoints such as histologic healing. Furthermore, its incorporation into routine clinical practice has contributed to a measurable reduction in corticosteroid reliance, thereby aligning treatment strategies with international standards of care. By combining efficacy, safety, accessibility, and ease of use, tofacitinib has catalyzed a paradigm shift in the management of UC in the Indian context.

Optimizing Janus kinase inhibitor therapy for ulcerative colitis: a real-world perspective
Shintaro Akiyama
Received June 1, 2025  Accepted June 19, 2025  Published online November 14, 2025  
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2025.00096    [Epub ahead of print]
AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
In real-world clinical practice, 3 Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors—tofacitinib, filgotinib, and upadacitinib—are now available for the treatment of ulcerative colitis. Emerging real-world evidence highlights distinct efficacy and safety profiles among these agents, largely attributed to differences in JAK selectivity and dosing strategies. Notably, data are accumulating on differential efficacy, predictors of therapeutic response, and outcomes in patients who switch between JAK inhibitors, contributing to a clearer understanding of the optimal positioning of each agent. Regarding safety, particular attention has been given to risks such as herpes zoster infection and drug-induced acne, underscoring the importance of appropriate patient education and individualized risk assessment. This review summarizes clinical trials and current real-world data on tofacitinib, filgotinib, and upadacitinib in ulcerative colitis, and discusses strategies for optimizing their clinical application.

AbstractAbstract PDFSupplementary MaterialPubReaderePub
Background/Aims
To assess, post hoc, tofacitinib safety/effectiveness in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), stratified by age, using data from a 60-week post-marketing surveillance (PMS) study in Japan.
Methods
All patients with UC receiving tofacitinib in Japan were enrolled in a large PMS study. Incidence proportions of adverse events (AEs), incidence rates (IRs; unique patients with events/100 patient-years of exposure) of clinically important AEs, reasons for discontinuation, and partial Mayo score clinical remission, stratified by age ( ≥ 65 and < 65 years), were evaluated.
Results
The analysis included 212 older ( ≥ 65 years) and 1,770 younger ( < 65 years) patients. Demographics and baseline disease characteristics were generally similar between groups; however, more older versus younger patients had cardiovascular disease (23.1% vs. 4.6%). Incidence proportions of AEs were comparable between groups, but IRs (95% confidence intervals) in older versus younger patients were numerically higher for herpes zoster (9.81 [5.72–15.71] vs. 5.44 [4.28–6.82]), and higher for serious infections (4.45 [1.92–8.76] vs. 1.14 [0.65–1.85]). More older versus younger patients discontinued due to AEs (28.6% vs. 17.6%); more younger versus older patients discontinued due to insufficient clinical responses (50.3% vs. 35.2%). Clinical remission rates through 60 weeks were generally similar between groups.
Conclusions
Older patients had higher IRs of herpes zoster and serious infection than younger patients, although tofacitinib effectiveness was similar between age groups. Discontinuation due to AEs was more common in older patients. Despite the smaller sample size of older versus younger patients, a focused evaluation of older patients is of benefit.

Comparative short-term efficacy of upadacitinib versus tofacitinib for ulcerative colitis: a 24-week real-world study in Japan
Akiko Tamura, Hiromichi Shimizu, Toshimitsu Fujii, Ami Kawamoto, Ryo Morikawa, Shuji Hibiya, Kento Takenaka, Masakazu Nagahori, Kazuo Ohtsuka, Ryuichi Okamoto
Intest Res 2026;24(1):95-102.   Published online March 20, 2025
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5217/ir.2024.00187
AbstractAbstract PDFSupplementary MaterialPubReaderePub
Background/Aims
Tofacitinib and upadacitinib are small-molecule compounds that inhibit the Janus kinase pathway for the treatment of refractory ulcerative colitis. Only a few reports have compared the efficacy and safety of these 2 drugs in real-world practice. We aimed to show our real-world evidence of these drugs and compare the efficacy and safety profiles in the treatment of ulcerative colitis.
Methods
This study is a single-center retrospective analysis. Patients treated with tofacitinib or upadacitinib at our hospital between June 2018 and January 2024 who were monitored for 24 weeks were included. The primary outcome was steroid-free clinical remission at 24 weeks. Secondary outcomes were response and remission rates at each time point, time series changes in partial Mayo scores and laboratory results, treatment survival at 24 weeks, and the incidence of adverse events.
Results
A total of 68 patients treated with tofacitinib and 34 patients treated with upadacitinib were included. Steroid-free clinical remission rate at 24 weeks was significantly higher in upadacitinib-treated patients than in tofacitinibtreated patients (64.7% vs. 38.2%). The response rates in upadacitinib-treated patients exceeded 60% after 8 weeks of treatment through to 24 weeks, and the rates were higher than those in tofacitinib-treated patients. The incidences of adverse events were 79.4% in upadacitinib-treated patients and 38.2% in tofacitinib-treated patients. The most common adverse event was acne for upadacitinib.
Conclusions
Upadacitinib was more effective than tofacitinib in inducing remission in ulcerative colitis patients. The incidence of adverse events was significantly higher with upadacitinib than tofacitinib.

AbstractAbstract PDFSupplementary MaterialPubReaderePub
Background/Aims
Tofacitinib (TFB), filgotinib (FIL), and upadacitinib (UPA) are Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors approved for moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis (UC). The appropriate positioning of each JAK inhibitor in the treatment algorithm, however, is unclear. Furthermore, real-world efficacy of JAK inhibitors for patients with UC and prior anti-tumor necrosis factor α antibody (aTNF) treatment are not fully investigated. We compared the efficacy and safety of 3 JAK inhibitors in patients with UC, considering their prior aTNF exposure.
Methods
A retrospective study was conducted in patients with UC who started TFB, FIL, or UPA at 2 academic centers. This propensity score-matched cohort study assessed the effectiveness of the 3 JAK inhibitors for UC in patients with and without prior aTNF exposure, comparing steroid-free clinical remission and response rates after 8 weeks.
Results
Among 274 patients who met the inclusion criteria, 145 experienced aTNF exposure (TFB: 59.2%, 100/169; FIL: 34.5%, 20/58; UPA: 53.2%, 25/47). Based on propensity score-matching, UPA led to a higher steroid-free clinical remission rates than TFB (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 5.57; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.42–21.90) or FIL (aOR, 9.00; 95% CI, 1.42–57.10) in patients exposed to aTNF. Steroid-free clinical remission and clinical response rates did not differ significantly between each group in patients non-exposed to aTNF. The incidence of adverse events was slightly higher with UPA than TFB or FIL.
Conclusions
UPA may be more effective for UC than TFB or FIL, especially in patients with previous aTNF exposure, although consideration should be given to adverse events.

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Background/Aims
Upadacitinib is a novel selective Janus kinase inhibitor approved for use in ulcerative colitis. Clinical trials had rigorous criteria and excluded many patient subgroups. Given limited real-world effectiveness data, we examined outcomes of patients treated with upadacitinib for ulcerative colitis in a real-world population.
Methods
Patients that commenced upadacitinib for moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis from September 2022 until March 2023 were identified at 13 inflammatory bowel disease centers across Australia. Clinical, biochemical, endoscopic, and intestinal ultrasound outcomes were recorded retrospectively at baseline, week 8, and week 16.
Results
One hundred and fifty-two patients (61 female [40%], median age 38 years [interquartile range, 28–50]) were included. The primary endpoint of clinical remission was met in 79% at week 8, and 84% at week 16. A total of 42 patients (28%) with prior tofacitinib exposure were included. No significant difference in clinical remission was observed by week 16 between tofacitinib experienced compared to tofacitinib naïve patients (86% vs. 84%, P= 0.67). Complete intestinal ultrasound data was available for 36 patients, showing transmural remission in 64% at week 8 and 81% at week 16, with a decrease in median bowel wall thickness of 2.3 mm and 2.4 mm, respectively.
Conclusions
Upadacitinib resulted in high rates of clinical remission at 8 and 16 weeks in this large real-world cohort of ulcerative colitis patients. Upadacitinib is effective in patients with prior tofacitinib exposure. Intestinal ultrasound shows significant rates of transmural remission at week 8, sustained through week 16.

AbstractAbstract PDFSupplementary MaterialPubReaderePub
Background/Aims
The efficacy and safety of tofacitinib for the treatment of refractory ulcerative colitis (UC) has been demonstrated in clinical trials. Although, a series of reports with real-world evidence of its short-term efficacy and safety profiles have already been published, reports of long-term real-world data have been limited. We aimed to show our 3-year evidence on the clinical use of tofacitinib for the treatment of UC, focusing on its efficacy and safety profiles.
Methods
A retrospective observational study was conducted on patients who started tofacitinib for active refractory UC at our hospital. The primary outcome was the retention rate until 156 weeks after initiating tofacitinib. The secondary outcomes were short-term efficacy at 4, 8, and 12 weeks; long-term efficacy at 52, 104, and 156 weeks; prognostic factors related to the cumulative retention rate; loss of response; and safety profile, including adverse events.
Results
Forty-six patients who were able to be monitored for up to 156 weeks after tofacitinib initiation, were enrolled in this study. Continuation of tofacitinib was possible until 156 weeks in 54.3%, with > 50% response rates and > 40% remission rates. Among patients in whom response or remission was achieved and tofacitinib was deescalated after 8 weeks of induction treatment, 54.3% experienced relapse but were successfully rescued by and retained on reinduction treatment, except for 1 patient. No serious AEs were observed in the study.
Conclusions
Tofacitinib is effective and safe as long-term treatment in a refractory cohort of UC patients in real-world clinical practice.

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract. Although the cause of UC is postulated to be multifactorial in nature, including genetic predisposition, epithelial barrier defects, dysregulation of immune responses, and environmental factors, the specific pathogenesis of UC is still incompletely understood. In the treatment of UC so far, a method of suppressing immunity and treating it has been mainstream. Immunosuppressant drugs, including thiopurines (azathioprine or 6-mercaptopurine), anti-tumor necrosis factor-α (anti-TNF-α) antibody (infliximab and adalimumab), and calcineurin inhibitor, can be used in treat patients with corticosteroid-dependent and/or corticosteroid-refractory moderateto- severe UC. Recently, in addition to such a conventional therapeutic agent, golimumab, which is the first transgenic human monoclonal anti-TNF-α antibody to be fabricated, anti α-4/β-7 integrin antibody, and Janus kinase inhibitor have been reported to novel immunosuppressant therapy. Furthermore, other treatments with unique mechanisms different from immunosuppression, have also been suggested, including fecal microbiota transplantation and Indigo naturalis, which is a Chinese herbal medicine. We compared the features and efficacy of these new treatments. In this issue, the features and treatment options for these new treatments is reviewed.
