A PHASE 3, EXTERNAL AND SYNTHETIC PLACEBO-CONTROLLED RANDOMIZED STUDY WITH DOSE-UP FOR NON-RESPONDERS TO INVESTIGATE SAFETY AND EFFICACY OF RITLECITINIB 50 MG AND 100 MG ONCE DAILY IN ADULT AND ADOLESCENT PARTICIPANTS 12 YEARS OF AGE AND OLDER WITH ALOPECIA AREATA

The purpose of the study is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called ritlecitinib) for the treatment of alopecia areata. Alopecia areata is a disease that causes hair loss on the scalp, face, and areas of the body.
Ritlecitinib is approved in many countries at a dose of 50 mg (milligram) taken by mouth once a day for the treatment of patients 12 years and older with severe alopecia areata. This study will look at both the 50 mg dose and a 100 mg dose.
This study is seeking participants who:
* Are 12 years of age or older
* Have a diagnosis of alopecia areata
* Have lost 50% or more of the hair on their scalp
* Do not have any other conditions that causes hair loss
* Are willing to stop all other treatments that they may be taking for alopecia areata
About 550 participants will take part in in this study.
Participants will be chosen by chance, like drawing names out of a hat, to receive 1 of 2 different amounts of ritlecitinib (50 mg and 100 mg) taken by mouth once daily.
The 2 doses of ritlecitinib in this study will be compared to each other and also to data from previous studies. This will help to see if the 100 mg dose of ritlecitinib is safe and effective.
People will be in this study for about 13 months. During the study, participants will need to visit the study site up to 9 times. Participants will undergo various tests and procedures such as:
* alopecia areata assessment,
* physical examinations,
* hearing tests,
* blood tests,
* x-ray,
* ECG (electrocardiogram),
* photographs of the scalp and eyes. Participants will also be asked to complete questionnaires about their alopecia areata.

The purpose of this research study is to see if a drug called ritlecitinib is safe and effective for treating chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU). CSU is hives and itching lasting over six weeks. Ritlecitinib is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat another condition, but it is not approved for treating CSU. Participation is expected to last 20 weeks and include 7 clinic visits. This study will involve physical examinations, blood tests, looking at and taking pictures of participant's skin and hives, optional skin biopsies, and hearing tests. Eligible participants for this study will take ritlecitinib for 12 weeks and complete a daily diary about their skin and hives. The main risks of being in this study are side effects from ritlecitinib. Less than 1 in 10 people taking ritlecitinib experience diarrhea, acne, hives, rash, inflammation of hair follicles, dizziness, and increased blood levels of creatine phosphokinase (a muscle protein). Participants could also experience a rare but serious side effect, such as shingles, unusual infection, cancer, or blood clot. Benefits of participating in this study include a potential improvement in participant's condition and quality of life. Participating in this study may also help researchers develop new ways of helping future patients.

Orally effective FDA-approved protein kinase targeted covalent inhibitors (TCIs): A 2025 update

Review

Author: Roskoski, Robert

Because aberrations of protein kinase activity play causal roles in several human diseases, this family of enzymes is one of the most important drug targets of the 21st century. Of the 88 protein kinase antagonists that are approved by the FDA, eleven of them form irreversible covalent complexes with their target enzymes. The clinical efficacy of ibrutinib, a Bruton tyrosine kinase blocker, in the treatment of mantle cell lymphoma following its 2013 approval helped to overcome a general bias against the development of irreversible drug inhibitors. Other approved targeted covalent inhibitors include acalabrutinib and zanubrutinib, which also block Bruton tyrosine kinase. Afatinib, dacomitinib, lazertinib, mobocertinib, and osimertinib inhibit members of the epidermal growth factor receptor family (ErbB1/2/3/4) and are used in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancers. Neratinib inhibits ErbB2 and is used in the management of ErbB2/HER2-positive breast cancer. Futibatinib blocks the fibroblast growth factor receptor family and is prescribed for the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma while ritlecitinib, which inhibits JAK3, is used in the management of alopecia areata. The eleven drugs considered in this review have a common mechanism of action involving the addition of a protein cysteine thiolate anion (proteinS:) to an acrylamide or an acrylamide-like derivative producing a thioether. The development of targeted covalent inhibitors is gaining acceptance as a valuable component of the medicinal chemist's toolbox and has made a significant impact on the development of protein kinase antagonists and receptor modulators.

Takeda's ENTYVIO Continues Growth Trajectory in Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's Disease | DelveInsight

With the introduction of a subcutaneous formulation, ENTYVIO has expanded patient convenience and global accessibility. Continued growth is supported by rising IBD prevalence and ongoing geographic expansion. LAS VEGAS, April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- DelveInsight's " ENTYVIO Market Size, Forecast, and Market Insight Report" highlights the details around ENTYVIO, a gut-selective biologic developed by Takeda Pharmaceutical. The report provides product descriptions, patent details, and competitor products (marketed and emerging therapies) of ENTYVIO. The report also highlights the historical and forecasted sales from 2020 to 2034 segmented into 7MM [the United States, the EU4 (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain), the United Kingdom, and Japan]. Takeda Pharmaceutical's ENTYVIO (vedolizumab) Overview Vedolizumab is a biologic medication approved for both intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) use, with regulatory approvals varying by region. The SC formulation is authorized for use in the United States, European Union, and over 50 other countries, while the IV formulation has received approval in more than 70 countries, including the US and the EU. Collectively, vedolizumab IV and SC have accumulated over one million patient-years of global exposure. Vedolizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that selectively targets the alpha4beta7 integrin, blocking its interaction with mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule 1 (MAdCAM-1) — a protein primarily found on blood vessels and lymph nodes in the gastrointestinal tract. This integrin is present on certain white blood cells involved in the inflammatory processes of ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. By disrupting the binding between alpha4beta7 integrin and MAdCAM-1, vedolizumab may reduce the migration of these immune cells into the gut, thereby decreasing inflammation. ENTYVIO Dosage For adults with ulcerative colitis, the advised dosage of ENTYVIO is 300 mg given through intravenous infusion at weeks 0, 2, and 6, followed by maintenance infusions every 8 weeks. Treatment should be discontinued if no clinical improvement is observed by week 14. Learn more about ENTYVIO projected market size for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis @ ENTYVIO Market Potential Crohn's disease is a progressive type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that results in chronic inflammation throughout the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly affecting the terminal ileum and colon. This inflammation can lead to complications such as strictures, fistulas, and ulcers. In 2024, there were 1.1 million diagnosed prevalent cases of Crohn's disease in the United States. Current treatment approaches primarily include biologics such as adalimumab (HUMIRA and its biosimilars), ustekinumab (STELARA), infliximab (REMICADE and biosimilars), along with systemic corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), and other therapies. Among these, adalimumab held the largest market share in the 7MM in 2024, generating around USD 4 billion in revenue for Crohn's disease treatment. In 2024, the market size of Crohn's disease was highest in the US among the 7MM, accounting for approximately USD 8 billion, which is further expected to increase at a CAGR of 4.5%. The Crohn's disease market is projected to expand due to the introduction of novel therapies with improved efficacy and more convenient routes of administration, broader use of biologics in pediatric populations, growing commercial opportunities in biologic-treated patients, advancements in biomarker development for early diagnosis, and the overall rising prevalence of the disease. Discover more about the Crohn's disease market in detail @ Crohn's Disease Market Report Ulcerative colitis is one of the primary types of chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) affecting the gastrointestinal tract. It is an idiopathic and long-standing inflammation of the colonic mucosa, typically presenting with symptoms like diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, and rectal bleeding. In 2023, there were an estimated 3.1 million diagnosed prevalent cases of ulcerative colitis across the 7MM, with numbers expected to rise over the forecast period. According to current US treatment guidelines, mild-to-moderate cases are initially managed with aminosalicylates or by using corticosteroids for induction followed by maintenance therapy with aminosalicylates. For patients with moderate-to-severe disease, maintenance treatment may involve immunosuppressants like azathioprine or 6-mercaptopurine after corticosteroid induction. Alternatively, biologics—particularly anti-TNF agents such as infliximab or adalimumab—can be used alone or alongside immunosuppressants to achieve and sustain remission and mucosal healing. The treatment landscape across the 7MM is categorized into commonly used drug classes, including conventional therapies, anti-TNF agents, anti-adhesion molecule therapies, JAK inhibitors, and others, reflecting some variations in prescribing practices. Looking ahead, the anticipated introduction of novel therapies, increased focus on early detection, enhanced use in secondary care, improved implementation strategies, and growing disease awareness are likely to contribute to more effective management of ulcerative colitis. As a result, the ulcerative colitis market will grow from USD 8.4 billion in 2023 at a significant CAGR by 2034. However, the high costs of new treatments and the financial burden of disease complications may pose challenges to widespread adoption. For a comprehensive view of the ulcerative colitis market, check out the Ulcerative Colitis Market Assessment Emerging Competitors of ENTYVIO Despite the presence of biosimilars, innovation in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis treatment remains strong, with several emerging therapies exploring new inflammatory pathways to improve efficacy and long-term outcomes. RHB-104, a combination macrolide antibiotic, is in Phase III trials targeting potential mycobacterial involvement. VELSIPITY, an S1P receptor modulator, works by limiting lymphocyte migration and reducing inflammation. TREMFYA, which inhibits IL-23, is under evaluation for its immune-modulating effects, while ABBV-154, a TNF inhibitor conjugated with a steroid, aims to enhance TNF suppression. Additional pipeline therapies include Merck's TL1A inhibitor Tulisokibart (PRA023/MK-7240) in Phase III and Pfizer's JAK3 inhibitor LITFULO in Phase II. Teva and Sanofi are also developing Duvakitug, a monoclonal antibody targeting TNFSF15. These investigational drugs represent significant progress for patients unresponsive to current treatments. A range of other promising candidates are in development, each targeting unique pathways. Landos Biopharma's Omilancor (BT-11) is in Phase II and acts via LANCL2, while AVB-114 from Avobis Bio/Alimentiv is also in Phase II. Abivax S.A.'s Obefazimod (ABX464) is being studied for its ability to upregulate miR-124. Roche's RVT-3101 (RG6631), an anti-TL1A antibody, is in Phase II trials, and Mesoblast's RYONCIL (Remestemcel-L), a mesenchymal stem cell therapy, is progressing in Phase III, offering regenerative potential. Other noteworthy agents in Phase II include Zasocitinib (TAK-279) from Takeda, a TYK2 inhibitor; AZD7798 from AstraZeneca, targeting CCR9; Sanofi's Balinatunfib (SAR441566), which blocks TNFR1 signaling; AGMB-129 from Agomab Therapeutics, targeting ALK5/TGFβR1; MBF-118 by Medibiofarma, a PPARγ partial agonist; and MORF-057 by Eli Lilly and Morphic Therapeutic, an α4β7 integrin inhibitor.

In March 2023, Takeda announced that Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare has approved ENTYVIO Pens and prefilled syringes (108 mg for subcutaneous injection) for use as maintenance therapy in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. In May 2020, Takeda announced that the European Commission has approved the subcutaneous formulation of ENTYVIO, a gut-targeted biologic, for maintenance treatment in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. In May 2019, Takeda announced that Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) has approved for an expanded indication of ENTYVIO, allowing its use in treating adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease. In May 2019, Takeda announced that the FDA has accepted for review the BLA for a SC formulation of vedolizumab, intended for maintenance treatment in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. In November 2018, Takeda announced the launch of ENTYVIO in Japan for the treatment of patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. In June 2014, Takeda announced that ENTYVIO is now commercially available in the United States for treating adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. In May 2014, Takeda announced that the European Commission (EC) has granted Marketing authorization for ENTYVIO. It is the first and only biologic approved at the same time for treating adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease who have not responded adequately to, lost response to, or were intolerant of conventional therapies or TNF-alpha inhibitors. In May 2014, Takeda announced that the FDA had granted simultaneous approval of ENTYVIO for the treatment of adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Discover how ENTYVIO is shaping the Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis treatment landscape @ ENTYVIO Infusion ENTYVIO Market Dynamics ENTYVIO has established itself as a leading biologic therapy in the treatment of moderate to severe ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. As a gut-selective integrin antagonist, ENTYVIO offers a differentiated mechanism of action compared to anti-TNF therapies, which contributes to its positioning as a safer long-term option, particularly for patients at risk of systemic immunosuppression. Its favorable safety profile and efficacy in inducing and maintaining remission have led to its widespread adoption, particularly among patients who have failed previous therapies. The biologics market for inflammatory bowel disease is highly competitive, with key players including HUMIRA, REMICADE, STELARA, and newer entrants like SKYRIZI and RINVOQ. ENTYVIO has managed to capture significant market share by appealing to both gastroenterologists and patients seeking gut-targeted treatment. Its intravenous formulation, though initially a barrier, has been partially offset by the 2019 launch of the subcutaneous version in global markets, enhancing patient convenience and adherence. However, uptake in the US for the SC version has been slower due to regulatory timelines and physician inertia. Biosimilar competition is also a factor shaping ENTYVIO's future market dynamics. While biosimilars of anti-TNFs are gaining traction, ENTYVIO currently remains insulated due to patent protections, with biosimilar entry expected post-2026. This provides Takeda a limited window to maximize revenue, expand its patient base, and reinforce brand loyalty. Strategic moves such as expanding indications, enhancing real-world evidence, and increasing global access will be crucial to maintaining its competitive edge. Moreover, the shift in payer dynamics and healthcare cost containment efforts are increasingly influencing biologic prescribing behavior. Takeda must continue to demonstrate value through outcome-based contracts and cost-effectiveness data. As newer agents with novel mechanisms enter the market, maintaining differentiation and proving long-term value will be central to ENTYVIO's sustained success.

AAD25: Lilly, Incyte's Olumiant gains ground in severe adolescent alopecia with late-stage success

Eli Lilly and Incyte’s once-daily oral JAK1/2 inhibitor Olumiant (baricitinib) demonstrated notable improvements in hair regrowth on the scalp, eyebrows and eyelashes in a Phase III study of adolescents with severe alopecia areata (AA), moving the drug a step closer to taking on Pfizer’s JAK3/TEC kinase inhibitor Litfulo (ritlecitinib) — the first alopecia medication approved for the younger age group in the US and EU. The findings were presented over the weekend at the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) annual meeting.Backed by the BRAVE-AA1 and BRAVE-AA2 trials, Olumiant secured FDA authorisation in 2022 for adults with severe AA, making it the first systemic treatment approved in the US for the condition.The BRAVE-AA-PEDS study randomised 257 participants aged 12 to under 18 to receive daily baricitinib 2 mg, 4 mg or placebo — the primary efficacy goal being Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score ≤20 at 36 weeks. Results showed that at this timepoint, 42.4% of patients receiving the 4-mg dose achieved the main goal, compared with 4.5% in the placebo group. Moreover, Olumiant 4 mg led to at least a 50% disease improvement in 60% of patients, while the 2 mg dose achieved the same in 36.9%, and placebo in 5.7%.Specifically, Olumiant 4 mg achieved 90% scalp hair coverage in 36.5% of patients, significant eyebrow regrowth in 50.0%, and eyelash regrowth in 42.9%, while the 2 mg dose showed 21.4%, 24.1%, and 25.5% improvement, respectively. In contrast, placebo results were 2.3% for scalp, 0% for eyebrows and 14.0% for eyelashes. Notably, outcomes in adolescents achieved at 36 weeks were comparable to those seen in adult studies at 52 weeks, suggesting faster hair regrowth in the former. Meanwhile, the safety profile in adolescents was consistent with previous Olumiant trials in juvenile idiopathic arthritis and atopic dermatitis. "With these data, baricitinib is the most well-studied JAK inhibitor in severe alopecia areata," remarked Anabela Cardoso, senior vice president of immunology medical affairs at Lilly. The drugmaker plans to present additional data from BRAVE-AA-PEDS later this year, whilst also discussing the findings with global regulators.Following the footsteps of Olumiant and Litfulo, Sun Pharmaceutical’s oral JAK1/2 inhibitor Leqselvi (deuruxolitinib) entered the severe AA market last year, albeit only approved for adults. Also at AAD this year, Q32 Bio unveiled upbeat mid-stage data for its IL-7/TSLP bifunctional receptor antagonist, bempikibart, in severe to very severe disease.

Celiac Disease Overview Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune disorder triggered by the ingestion of gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. In individuals with celiac disease, the immune system mistakenly attacks the small intestine upon gluten consumption, leading to inflammation and damage to the intestinal lining, specifically the villi, which are essential for nutrient absorption. The exact cause of celiac disease is not fully understood, but it is known to involve a combination of genetic predisposition (usually associated with HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 genes) and environmental factors. Common symptoms of celiac disease include digestive issues such as diarrhea, bloating, gas, constipation, and abdominal pain. However, some individuals experience non-digestive symptoms, like fatigue, anemia, joint pain, skin rashes, and even neurological issues such as headaches or depression. Because of this broad symptom range, celiac disease is often underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed as other conditions. Diagnosis typically involves blood tests to detect specific antibodies (like tissue transglutaminase antibodies) and, if positive, is followed by an intestinal biopsy to confirm damage to the villi. Genetic testing may also be conducted in some cases to identify predispositions. The primary treatment for celiac disease is a strict, lifelong gluten-free diet. By avoiding gluten, individuals with celiac disease can heal intestinal damage and prevent symptoms and complications.
