Brepocitinib (PF06700841; PF-06700841) is a potent, selective, and conformationally constrained piperazinyl-pyrimidine Type 1 ATP site inhibitor of TYK2 and JAK1 kinases with anti-inflammatory effects. It inhibits TYK2 and JAK1 with IC50 values of 23 nM and 17 nM respectively. PF-06700841 is in Phase II clinical development (NCT02969018, NCT02958865, NCT03395184, and NCT02974868) as a potential therapeutic for the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus and plaque psoriasis. Cytokine signaling is an important characteristic of autoimmune diseases. Many pro-inflammatory cytokines signal through the Janus kinase (JAK)/Signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway. JAK1 is important for the γ-common chain cytokines, interleukin (IL)-6, and type-I interferon (IFN) family, while TYK2 in addition to type-I IFN signaling also plays a role in IL-23 and IL-12 signaling. Intervention with monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) or JAK1 inhibitors has demonstrated efficacy in Phase III psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and rheumatoid arthritis studies. PF-06700841was safe and well tolerated up to 200 mg once daily in healthy subjects and 100 mg once daily in patients with psoriasis, suggesting potential therapeutic utility in plaque psoriasis and other inflammatory diseases.

Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | With human whole blood (HWB) IC50s of 65 and 120 nM, respectively, brepocitinib (PF-06700841; Compound 23) potently inhibits TYK2/JAK2 mediated IL-12/pSTAT4 and IL-23/pSTAT3[1]. Brepocitinib inhibits IL6/pStat1 in the CD3+ cellular subset with good potency (IC50 of 81 nM), whereas it inhibits IL6/pSTAT3 with lower potency (IC50 of 641 nM) in the same CD3+ cellular subset[1]. Brepocitinib also exhibits a moderate level of effectiveness in inhibiting the JAK1/JAK3 driven γ- common chain cytokines, as demonstrated by IL-15/pStat5 and IL-21/pSTAT3 (HWB IC50s of 238 and 204 nM, respectively)[1]. In HWB spiked with CD34+ progenitor cells, brepocitinib inhibits EPO/pSTAT5 (JAK2 homodimer) with an IC50 of 577 nM. Brepocitinib also inhibits IL10/pSTAT3 (TYK2/JAK1) and IL27/pSTAT3 (JAK1/JAK2/TYK2), with IC50s of 305 nM and 86 nM, respectively[1]. |
| ln Vivo | The oral delivery of brepocitinib (PF-06700841; Compound 23) to female Lewis rats for seven consecutive days considerably lowers the rise in paw volume in a dose-dependent manner. Animals given Brepocitinib were given the following plasma concentrations at peak (30 min) and trough (24 h) time intervals after the final dose: 3 mg/kg, 3.54 μM, 0.0221 μM; 10 mg/kg, 10.95 μM, 0.06 μM; and 30 mg/kg, 23.89 μM, 0.06 μM[1]. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Female Lewis rats with induced arthritis[1] Doses: 3 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg, or 30 mg/kg Route of Administration: Oral administration; for 7 days Experimental Results: Increased in paw volume was Dramatically lower and dose-dependent. |

| Additional Infomation |
PF-06700841 is under investigation in clinical trial NCT03236493 (Safety and Pharmacokinetic Study of PF-06700841 in Japanese Healthy Volunteers). Brepocitinib is an orally available, selective inhibitor of non-receptor tyrosine-protein kinase TYK2 (tyrosine kinase 2) and tyrosine-protein kinase JAK1 (Janus kinase 1; JAK1) with potential immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory activities. Upon oral administration, brepocitinib selectively binds to and inhibits the activation of TYK2 and JAK1, thereby disrupting TYK2 and JAK-1-dependent cytokine signaling. This may reduce inflammatory responses and prevent inflammation-induced damage caused by certain immunological diseases. TYK2 and JAK-1 are members of the Janus kinase family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases and are involved in signaling pathways affecting hematopoiesis, immunity and inflammation. |
