Summary

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease, of which motor-neuron's degeneration may be associated with neuroinflammation. Tofacitinib is a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor that affects cellular hematopoiesis and cellular immune function. At the same time, tofacitinib is suitable for rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. This study is a single center, single arm, proof of concept, clinical trial study, and it is planned to use tofacitinib to carry out a clinical trial to observe the treatment effect of ALS patients.

Interventions

DRUG

Tofacitinib tablets

All patients should be closely monitored for signs and symptoms of infection during and after treatment with tofacitinib tablets. If a patient develops a severe infection, opportunistic infection, or sepsis, medication should be discontinued. During treatment, patients with lymphocyte counts \< 500 cells/mm\^3 or ANC \< 500 cells/mm\^3 confirmed by repeated testing should be stopped. When 500≤ANC≤1000 cells/mm\^3, administration should be interrupted, and if ANC returns to more than 1000 cells/mm\^3, administration should be resumed. When hemoglobin \< 8 g/dL or decreases by more than 2 g/dL, administration should be interrupted until hemoglobin values return to normal.
