OBJECTIVES: To explore the effectiveness of tofacitinib for immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) and idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis (IRF), and investigate the expression of JAKs in the lesion of these diseases.
METHODS: Clinical data of patients with IgG4-RD or IRF who were administered with tofacitinib monotherapy were collected. IgG4-RD responder index (IgG4-RD RI) was assessed. The expression of JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and TYK2 were analysed with immunohistochemistry staining in three salivary glands specimens of IgG4-RD and one retroperitoneal tissue of IRF.
RESULTS: Two patients with IRF and two patients with IgG4-RD used tofacitinib monotherapy. Two patients with IRF achieved complete remission with diminished retroperitoneal mass and decreased CRP, as IgG4-RD RI decreased from 6 to 1 in both of them. One with IgG4-RD achieved complete remission with alleviated enlargement of pancreas and IgG4 level decreased from 13.7 g/L to 2.4 g/L, as IgG4-RD RI decreased from 12 to 1. One with IgG4-RD achieved partial response with IgG4 level decreased from 77.1g/L to 25.8g/L as IgG4-RD RI from 18 to 6. JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and TYK2 expression were detected in biopsy tissues. The staining intensity of the JAK family on the lesion from one IRF patient was similar to those from IgG4-RD patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Tofacitinib is a potentially effective treatment for IgG4-RD and IRF and it is reasonable to conduct clinical trial to validate its efficacy. The JAKs were expressed in the inflammatory lesions of IgG4-RD and IRF and they may share a common pathogenesis pathway that is independent of IgG4 production.
