Janus kinase and calcineurin‐inhibitor combination in anti‐MDA5 dermatomyositis: No significant survival benefit but reassuring safety profile

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 2, Page 228-240, February 2026.
Abstract Objectives Anti‐MDA5 dermatomyositis (anti‐MDA5 DM) is the most severe subtype of dermatomyositis, due to its pulmonary involvement. Current treatment involves corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, but variability in responses exists. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Janus kinase (JAK)– and calcineurin–inhibitor ...
