Background: Autoinflammatory syndromes are characterized by dysregulation of innate immunity and recurrent episodes of fever, cutaneous and other. Janus Kinase inhibitors (JAKINIB) may inhibit innate and acquired immunity. They have been approved in several immune mediated diseases, but not in autoinflammatory syndromes.


Objectives: To assess the efficacy and safety of JAKINIB in refractory autoinflammatory syndromes.


Methods: Study of patients from a single University Hospital and Literature review of refractory autoinflammatory syndromes treated with JAKINIB.


Results: We have identified 2 cases in our hospital. One of them was a 25-year-old girl diagnosed with Blau syndrome refractory to different conventional and biological therapies. Tofacitinib (TOFA) had a good clinical response but was switched to Bariticitinib (BARI) due to severe lymphopenia. The 2nd patient was a 65-year-old man, diagnosed with an autoinflammatory syndrome (WDR1 mutation) and policytemia vera (positive JAK-2; V617F mutation). Based on the JAK2 mutation, BARI was started with complete improvement. In literature review, we found 59 patients (41 women/ 18 men), mean age 38.1±13 years. TOFA (n=23) was the most used JAKINIB, followed by BARI (n=20) and Ruxolitinib (RUXO) (n=16). After starting JAKINIB treatment, most patients presented clinical complete (n=45, 76.3%) or partial (n=11; 18.6%) improvement, only 3 (5.1%) did not respond. ( Table 1 )
