Are JAK Inhibitors Better at Pain Relief in RA?

Among RA patients who responded to upadacitinib (Rinvoq) or adalimumab, those receiving upadacitinib had significantly less residual pain with treatment, according to a post hoc analysis of phase III trial data.

FWIW, the #s in pediatric trials with Bayesian informative prior can be tiny. e.g. Upadacitinib for UC in adults - phase 2b and phase 3 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35644166/inc... 1447 adults.
With the prior (Upa works well in UC) you can run a rapid pediatric trial with <= 20 patients to get approval.

one promising off-the-shelf medication
for major type of long-covid so likely also me-cfs

JAK-STAT inhibitors

Baricitinib = Olumiant, Barigen
Upadacitinib = Rinvoq
Tofacitinib = Xeljanz, Jaknat

problem in US they are very expensive as not sold as generics yet
but elsewhere in the world (Canada)

New findings suggest upadacitinib has the strongest short-term efficacy among oral JAK inhibitors for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. Upadacitinib 30 mg ranked highest across EASI-75, IGA 0/1, and itch outcomes.

discovered Canadian Pharmacies are doing something
@costplusdrugs.com either can't or won't

JAK-STAT inhibitors $1/day instead of $25/day

maybe most promising treatment for millions with #LongCovid

@mcuban.bsky.social needs to figure out who in FDA
he needs to give a CAVA bag to make this happen
January 7, 2026 at 3:27 PM
one HUGE thing @mcuban.bsky.social via @costplusdrugs.com
could help us suffering years with #LongCovid

import generics of FDA approved JAK-STAT inhibitors
impossible to afford
$$$$ per month in USA

Baricitinib = Olumiant, Barigen
Upadacitinib = Rinvoq
Tofacitinib = Xeljanz

only hopeful treatment

#JAK inhibitors are an important new tool in the arsenal of treatments for #IBD.

Examine the evidence on the use of upadacitinib, tofacitinib, and filgotinib, and what's known about their comparative effectiveness.

If you do take some Rinvoq™ (upadacitinib), you can't donate blood or blood components for ONE MONTH after your last dose.

Highly Sensitive and Selective Liquid Chromatography–Tandem Mass Spectrometry Method for the Simultaneous Determination of Upadacitinib and Atorvastatin in Rat Plasma and Its Application to a Pharmacokinetic Study
ABSTRACT A highly sensitive and versatile liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) method was developed for the simultaneous quantification of upadacitinib and atorvastatin in rat plasma. The analytes and internal standard were extracted from 30 μL rat plasma using a simple protein precipitation technique. The method demonstrated excellent linearity over the concentration ranges of 0.5–500 ng/mL for upadacitinib and 0.05–100 ng/mL for atorvastatin and precision over all quality control levels. Detection was achieved using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) in positive ionization mode. Method validation was carried out in accordance with the current ICH M10 guidance on bioanalytical method validation. The validated method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study of a 10 mg oral formulation of upadacitinib and atorvastatin in rats. The pharmacokinetic results confirmed the applicability of the method for the reliable and simultaneous determination of both analytes in rat plasma.
