Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/04/2013 -- GlobalData has released its new PharmaPoint Drug Evaluation report, Baricitinib (Rheumatoid Arthritis) Forecast and Market Analysis. The RA market is currently very dynamic, with the November 6, 2012 FDA approval of Pfizer's Xeljanz (tofacitinib) and novel oral therapies awaiting approval such as: Eli Lilly's anti-BAFF, tabalumab and JAK1,2 inhibitor, baricitinib, and Rigel/AZ's SYK inhibitor, fostamatinib. These compounds will challenge the current biologics in the attempt to dislodge the stronghold of the TNF inhibitors, if their safety and efficacy profiles are proven once they enter the market.

Eli Lilly and Company and Incyte Corporation are jointly developing baricitinib, an oral JAK1 and 2 inhibitor, under a worldwide license and collaboration agreement in which Lilly has the licensing rights. Baricitinib prevents intracellular signaling of IL-6 and IL-23, thereby reducing inflammation. Formerly known as LY3009104 to Lilly and as INCB28050 to Incyte, baricitinib is currently in Phase IIb clinical trials to study patients with active RA on background MTX. This trial is located in nine countries including the US and India. In addition to RA, baricitinib is in Phase IIb trials for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
