Overview

Expert review reveals emerging cytokine pathways and targets in axial spondyloarthritis, indicating novel approaches to control bone formation and achieve remission.

Key Points

  • Summarize emerging therapeutic drug targets, preclinical cellular and animal models, and early clinical trials for axial spondyloarthritis.
  • Evaluated molecular mechanisms from preclinical animal models, cellular systems, and phase-II clinical trials in axial spondyloarthritis.
  • Assessed target pathways including type 3 immune cascades, growth factor signaling, and artificial intelligence-assisted patient stratification.
  • Targeting the transforming growth factor-β family represents a leading strategy to directly modulate pathological new bone formation.
  • Blockade of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor suppresses hyperactive type 3 immune responses driving systemic inflammation.
  • Cytokine modulation using interleukin-2 or interleukin-27 promotes regulatory anti-inflammatory responses capable of supporting sustained drug-free remission.
