AB0249 SAFETY OF BARICITINIB IN JAPANESE PATIENTS WITH RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS (RA): THE 2020 INTERIM REPORT FROM ALL-CASE POST MARKETING SURVEILLANCE IN CLINICAL PRACTICE

Background: An all-case post marketing surveillance (PMS) of baricitinib (Bari), that started in Sep 2017, collects safety and effectiveness for the first 24 wks of treatment and continues to collect serious adverse events (SAEs) for 3 yrs. Objectives: To evaluate Bari safety in RA patients (pt) in clinical practice. Methods: We report pt baseline demographics and adverse events (AEs) up to 24 wks for pts whose case report files for 24-wk data were completed as of Jun 2020. Results: Data from 3445 pts were analyzed (females=80%, mean age=64yr, mean RA duration 12yr). Bari dose regimen was as follows: 4mg, 60%, 2mg, 27%, 4mg→2mg, 5%, 2mg→4mg, 5%, and others, 2%. Concomitant use of MTX and glucocorticoid was 65% and 48%, respectively. 74% continued treatment for 24 wks. AE and SAE were recognized in 887 (26%) and 122 pts (4%), respectively. 6 pts died of pneumonia, aspiration pneumonia, bacterial pneumonia, cerebral infarction/ILD/aspiration pneumonia, adenocarcinoma, and colorectal cancer. Major AEs were as follows: herpes zoster=3%, liver dysfunction=3%, serious infection=1%, anemia=1%, hyperlipidemia=1%, malignancy=0.3%, interstitial pneumonia=0.2%, MACE=0.1%, and VTE=0.1%. Conclusion: Data do not show new safety concerns and encourage guideline-compliant use of Bari. Disclosure of Interests: Takao Fujii Speakers bureau: Chugai Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd.; Eisai Co.
