Chemistry:Atinvicitinib
Atinvicitinib is a veterinary medicinal product under investigation for the treatment of atopic dermatitis in dogs.[1] Atinvicitinib is a selective Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, highly selective for Janus kinase 1 (JAK1). It inhibits the function of a variety of cytokines involved in itch and inflammation, as well as cytokines involved in allergy, that are dependent on JAK1 enzyme activity.[1] Reduction of allergy mediated inflammation, which is dependent on JAK1 enzyme activity, leads to a reduction of inflammation associated white blood cell counts (within the reference range).[1]
