Core Tip |
Tofacitinib is a small molecule that is an inhibitor of the Janus kinase signal transduction pathway, and it is the first oral medication approved for chronic use among adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). Three large phase III trials have shown overall efficacy and safety; however, long-term results and real-world data are lacking in the literature. Our objective is it consolidate the current literature to better understand what is currently known about efficacy, safety, quality of life, and real-world experience with this medication among patients with UC. |
