Meta-analysis of efficacy and safety of oral JAK inhibitor for alopecia areata
To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor in the treatment of alopecia areata (AA) in order to provide evidence-based reference for clinical use.
METHODS
2
PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang and CBM were searched from the inception to March 29, 2022. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of oral JAK inhibitors (trial group) versus placebo (control group) in the treatment of AA were collected. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted the data, and evaluated the quality of the included studies. RevMan 5.4 software was used for meta-analysis and analysis of publication bias.
RESULTS
2
A total of 2 170 patients were enrolled in 5 RCTs, including 1 619 in the trial group and 551 in the control group. Meta-analysis results showed that: compared with control group, the ratio of the patients with the Severity Alopecia Tool (SALT) score ≤20 at 24th week [RR=6.10,95%CI(3.86,9.63),
P
<0.000 01
]
and 36th week [RR=6.59,95%CI(4.16,10.43),
P
<0.000 01
]
were both higher; Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Anxiety (HADS-A) score [RR=0.35, 95%CI (0.07, 0.64),
P
=0.02
]
and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Depression (HADS-D) score [RR=0.50, 95%CI (0.22, 0.77),
P
=0.000 4
]
were more decreased at 24th week. HADS-A score [RR=0.55, 95%CI (0.21, 0.89),
P
=0.001
]
and HADS-D score [RR=0.50, 95%CI (0.16, 0.84),
P
=0.004
]
were also significantly decreased at 36th week. The incidence of acne [RR=4.07,95%CI(1.83,9.08),
P
=0.000 6
]
and low density lipoprotein (LDL) elevation [RR=1.66,95%CI(1.21,2.28),
P
=0.002
]
in trial group were increased significantly (
P
<0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of urinary tract infection, upper respiratory tract infection, headache, nasopharyngitis and creatine phosphokinase elevation between 2 groups (
P
>0.05). There was little possibility of publication bias in this study based on the publication bias analysis.
CONCLUSIONS
2
Oral JAK inhibitor can significantly improve AA patients’ hair regrowth, anxiety and depression. Acne and LDL elevation are the main adverse events.
