Overview

Oclacitinib is an immunomodulator that is FDA approved for the treatment of pruritus associated with allergic dermatitis and control of atopic dermatitis in dogs at least 12 months of age. Common adverse reactions include {{{adverseReactions}}}.

Adverse Reactions

Clinical Trials Experience

Adverse reactions reported (and percent of dogs affected) during Days 0-16 included diarrhea (4.6% APOQUEL, 3.4% placebo), vomiting (3.9% APOQUEL, 4.1% placebo), anorexia (2.6% APOQUEL, 0% placebo), new cutaneous or subcutaneous lump (2.6% APOQUEL, 2.7% placebo), and lethargy (2.0% APOQUEL, 1.4% placebo). In most cases, diarrhea, vomiting, anorexia, and lethargy spontaneously resolved with continued dosing. Dogs on APOQUEL had decreased leukocytes (neutrophil, eosinophil, and monocyte counts) and serum globulin, and increased cholesterol and lipase compared to the placebo group but group means remained within the normal range. Mean lymphocyte counts were transiently increased at Day 14 in the APOQUEL group.

Postmarketing Experience

The following adverse events are based on postapproval adverse drug experience reporting for APOQUEL. Not all adverse events are reported to FDA/CVM. It is not always possible to reliably estimate the adverse event frequency or establish a causal relationship to product exposure using these data. The following adverse events reported in dogs are listed in decreasing order of reporting frequency. Vomiting, lethargy, anorexia, diarrhea, elevated liver enzymes, dermatitis (i.e. crusts, pododermatitis, pyoderma), seizures, polydipsia, and demodicosis. Benign, malignant, and unclassified neoplasms, dermal masses (including papilomas and histiocytomas), lymphoma and other cancers have been reported. Death (including euthanasia) has been reported.

Mechanism of Action

There is limited information regarding Oclacitinib Mechanism of Action in the drug label.

Structure

Oclacitinib inhibits the function of a variety of pruritogenic cytokines and proinflammatory cytokines, as well as cytokines involved in allergy that are dependent on JAK1 or JAK3 enzyme activity. It has little effect on cytokines involved in hematopoiesis that are dependent on JAK2. Oclacitinib is not a corticosteroid or an antihistamine.

Pharmacodynamics

There is limited information regarding Oclacitinib Pharmacodynamics in the drug label.

Pharmacokinetics

In dogs, oclacitinib maleate is rapidly and well absorbed following oral administration, with mean time to peak plasma concentrations (T ) of less than 1 hour. Following oral administration of 0.4-0.6 mg oclacitinib/kg to 24 dogs, the mean (90% confidence limits [CL]) maximum concentration (C ) was 324 (281, 372) ng/mL and the mean area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 and extrapolated to infinity (AUC ) was 1890 (1690, 2110) ng∙hr/mL. The prandial state of dogs does not significantly affect the rate or extent of absorption. The absolute bioavailability of oclacitinib maleate was 89%. Oclacitinib has low protein binding with 66.3-69.7% bound in fortified canine plasma at nominal concentrations ranging from 10-1000 ng/mL. The apparent mean (95% CL) volume of distribution at steady-state was 942 (870, 1014) mL/kg body weight. Oclacitinib is metabolized in the dog to multiple metabolites and one major oxidative metabolite was identified in plasma and urine. Overall the major clearance route is metabolism with minor contributions from renal and biliary elimination. Inhibition of canine cytochrome P450 enzymes by oclacitinib is minimal; the inhibitory concentrations (IC ) are 50 fold greater than the observed C values at the use dose. Mean (95% CL) total body oclacitinib clearance from plasma was low – 316 (237, 396) mL/h/kg body weight (5.3 mL/min/kg body weight). Following IV and PO administration, the terminal t appeared similar with mean values of 3.5 (2.2, 4.7) and 4.1 (3.1, 5.2) hours, respectively.

Nonclinical Toxicology

Clinical Studies

There is limited information regarding Oclacitinib Clinical Studies in the drug label.
