Oclacitinib (brand name Apoquel) is a veterinary medication used in the control of pruritus associated with allergic dermatitis and the control of atopic dermatitis in dogs at least 12 months of age.[1][2] Chemically, it is a cyclohexylamino pyrrolopyrimidine janus kinase inhibitor that is relatively selective for JAK1 (IC50 = 10 nM).[3]

Uses

Oclacitinib is labeled to treat atopic dermatitis and itchiness (pruritus) caused by allergies in dogs, though it has also been used to reduce the itchiness and dermatitis caused by flea infestations.[4][5] It is considered to be highly effective in dogs, and has been established as safe for at least short-term use.[6][7][8] Its efficacy equals that of prednisolone at first, though oclacitinib has been found to be more effective in the long term in terms of itchiness and dermatitis.[9] It has been found to have a faster onset and cause less gastrointestinal issues than cyclosporine.[7][10]

While safe in the short term, oclacitinib's long-term safety is unknown.[7][11] While some say it is best only for acute flares of itchiness, others claim that it is also useful in chronic atopic dermatitis.[5][11]

There is some off-label use of oclacitinib in treating asthma and allergic dermatitis in cats, but the exact efficacy has not been established.[9][5]

Mechanism of action

In isolated enzyme systems, oclacitinib was shown to inhibit JAK family members, most effectively JAK1, while not significantly inhibiting a variety of other non-JAK kinases, suggesting oclacitinib is a selective JAK inhibitor.[3]

Assay Mean IC50 ± SE (nM)
