• PsO/PsA flared
• No change or

• No obvious reason
Durability with Long-Term Tofacitinib for AA
• 6 patients experienced medication interruption
• Adverse effect, illness, lapse in insurance coverage
• 4/6 (66%) with medication interruption
experienced shedding
• Noted within 4 weeks
• Resuming Tofacitinib after interruption had
stabilization of shedding within 1-2 months
• 2/20 discontinued due to adverse reactions
Tolerability with Long-Term Tofacitinib for AA
• LFT elevation (2/20) 10%
• Resolved with dose adjustment in 1, the other had to stop
tofa
• Hypercholesterolemia (3/20) 15%
• Noted by month 4 of treatment
• Slower to respond with dose adjustment
• Other:
• Lower Extremity Edema (1/20) 5%: medication
discontinued
• Palpitations (1/20) 5%: found to be hyperthyroid
• Leukopenia (1/20) 5%: transient
• Herpes reactivation (1/20) 5%
Safe but close monitoring (every 3-4 months) important
Summary Tofacitinib Long Term Data
• Results:
- 75% achieved some regrowth
- 60% - SALT50
- 25% - SALT90 (essentially fully regrowth)
- 30-40% - insufficient or no response
• Poor responders
- Increase to 15-20 mg daily
• Less likely to respond:
- Longer duration of episode (>10 years)
• Durability – 2 months post discontinuation –
shedding
Take Home Points
• This is a very exciting time for alopecia areata!
The era of biologic treatment of AA is just beginning
- Future
• More options- precision targeted therapy
• Better
• Safer
• More affordable (hopefully)
