Janus kinase inhibitor tofacitinib successfully treated palmoplantar pustulosis after switching from secukinumab: A case report and review of the literature.

Palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) is a chronic inflammatory recurrent disease characterized by sterile pustules involving palms and/or feet. Presently, there are no standard recommended treatment regimens. Tofacitinib is an oral Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, mainly acts on JAK 1 and 3 and has been approved for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in adults. Herein, we present a case of a patient with PPP who did not respond to IL-17A inhibitor secukinumab but was successfully treated by the JAK inhibitor tofacitinib.
