Excerpt

With the recent approval of rofacitinib for the management of moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis, the inhibition of Janus kinases (JAKs) is being explored for the treatment of inflammatory diseases [13]. Within the JAK-based therapeutic target, it appears that JAK1 inhibition may play an important role in the in vivo efficacy of treatments for several inflammatory diseases [4]. In this context, filgotinib represents a potent JAK1 inhibitor with 30-fold higher selectivity than JAK2 inhibition [5]. Filgotinib undergoes hydrolytic cleavage and forms an active metabolite, the potency of which (11 µmol/L) was reported to be 17-fold lower than that of filgotinib (0.63 µmol/L) [5, 6]. …
