Resumo

Objetivo: Comparar a eficácia e a segurança dos inibidores de Janus Quinase (JAKi) com os DMARDs tradicionais no tratamento da AR moderada a grave. Métodos: Realizou-se uma busca em bases de dados eletrônicas para seleção de estudos publicados entre 2020 e 2025. Foram incluídos 15 artigos que abordaram desfechos relacionados à atividade da doença, progressão estrutural, adesão terapêutica e eventos adversos, analisados de forma crítica e sistematizada. Resultados: Os JAKi demonstraram eficácia comparável ou superior aos DMARDs tradicionais na redução da atividade inflamatória e na melhoria de desfechos relatados pelos pacientes, como dor e fadiga. Evidências também indicaram benefícios na proteção contra progressão estrutural e melhor persistência no tratamento. Contudo, foi observada maior incidência de infecções oportunistas, especialmente herpes zoster, e um possível aumento do risco cardiovascular em subgrupos de pacientes com fatores de risco. Considerações finais: Os inibidores de JAK representam uma alternativa eficaz e relevante para o tratamento da AR moderada a grave, desde que seu uso seja baseado em avaliação individualizada e acompanhamento rigoroso quanto à segurança.
