Also known as: Rinvoq, RINVOQ
Rinvoq (upadacitinib) is an oral JAK inhibitor indicated across multiple inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, ankylosing spondylitis, non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis, atopic dermatitis, and polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis in specific populations. It carries class boxed warnings for serious infection, malignancy, major cardiovascular events, and thrombosis. Initial U.S. approval was in 2019.
AbbVie's Q2 2026 revenue hit $16.99 billion, beating estimates, but full-year EPS guidance was cut to $13.97. Growth in immunology and neuroscience continued, and the FAST study on ubrogepant wrapped up.
AbbVie posted record 2025 revenue of $61.2 billion and raised 2026 guidance on Skyrizi and Rinvoq growth. Pipeline advances include Crohn's submissions, obesity data, and European approval for Boey.
A retrospective study found comparable corticosteroid-free remission with upadacitinib and risankizumab in anti-TNF-exposed Crohn’s patients. Upadacitinib showed higher endoscopic remission at week 52 but more adverse events. Both JAK and IL-23 inhibitors are shaping the growing IBD treatment market.
AbbVie raised 2026 revenue and EPS guidance after first-quarter results beat estimates, with Skyrizi and Rinvoq driving growth. Humira erosion continued as neuroscience, oncology and pipeline assets supported the outlook.
A retrospective real-world study of 108 Chinese patients with anti-TNF-refractory Crohn’s disease found upadacitinib clinical remission rates of 55.1% at week 12 and 52.5% at week 24.
AbbVie posted record full-year 2025 revenue of $61.2B and raised its 2026 outlook after strong Q1 Skyrizi and Rinvoq sales. Phase 3 AFFIRM data and new FDA submissions highlight pipeline progress, while full-year revenue guidance was lifted to $67.3B.
AbbVie filed an sBLA for SKYRIZI as a subcutaneous induction therapy for Crohn's disease, supported by Phase 3 AFFIRM data. SKYRIZI and Rinvoq combined for $25.9B in 2025 revenue, exceeding 2027 guidance. The FDA also approved Venclexta plus acalabrutinib in CLL.
Eli Lilly, AbbVie, Vertex, Gilead Sciences and Pfizer were identified as pharmaceutical stocks to watch, with Abbott Laboratories and McKesson appearing on a separate seven-stock list.
Atopic dermatitis updates in 2026 included long-term upadacitinib safety, phase 3 amlitelimab and rademikibart data, and 5-year interim dupilumab results in children. A market report also listed multiple emerging therapies in late-stage development.
AbbVie said Skyrizi and Rinvoq generated $26.0 billion in 2025 sales and are expected to exceed $31 billion in 2026. The company said the two immunology drugs continue to offset Humira erosion and drive top-line growth.
