Resumo
A dermatite atópica é a doença inflamatória cutânea mais prevalente mundialmente. A via JAK/STAT tem papel importante no mecanismo da doença e as pequenas moléculas inibidores de JAK são fármacos com grande potencial de uso na dermatite atópica. Foi realizada uma revisão sistemática da literatura na base de dados PubMed, utilizando os termos “atopic dermatitis” e/ou “JAK inhibitors” e/ou “small molecules” entre 2017 e 2022. Foram incluídos os resultados disponíveis de estudos de fase 3, avaliando o uso de inibidores de JAK em apresentações tópicas e sistêmicas. Entre 646 estudos, foram selecionados 37 em humanos que avaliaram a eficácia e segurança dos inibidores de JAK. Os resultados do uso, quando bem indicados, mostraram-se positivos e em alguns casos superiores a outros tratamentos já preconizados para o controle da dermatite atópica, com um bom perfil de segurança.

Abstract
Atopic dermatitis is the most common inflammatory skin disease worldwide. The JAK/STAT pathway plays an important role in the disease mechanism, and small-molecule JAK inhibitors are drugs with great potential for use in atopic dermatitis. We systematically reviewed PubMed using the search terms “atopic dermatitis” AND/OR “JAK inhibitors” AND/OR “small molecules” for studies published between 2017 and 2022. Results from phase III trials evaluating both topical and systemic application of JAK inhibitors were included. Of 646 studies retrieved, 37 evaluating the efficacy and safety of JAK inhibitors in humans were selected for analysis. When properly indicated, the use of JAK inhibitors yielded positive results, some of which were superior to those of recommended treatments for the control of atopic dermatitis, with a good safety profile.
