ABSTRACT

Objective:

The signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) gain-of-function (GOF) syndrome (STAT3-GOF) is an inborn error of immunity (IEI) characterized by diverse manifestations of immune dysregulation that necessitate systemic immunomodulatory treatment. The blockade of the interleukin-6 receptor and/or the inhibition of the Janus kinases has been commonly employed to treat diverse STAT3-GOF-associated manifestations. However, evidence on long-term treatment outcome, especially in the case of adult patients, is scarce.

Methods:

Clinical data, including laboratory findings and medical imaging, were collected from all seven patients, diagnosed with STAT3-GOF, who have been treated at the Hannover University School, focusing on those who received a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor (JAKi). Previously published cases of STAT3-GOF patients who received a JAKi were evaluated, focusing on reported treatment efficacy with respect to diverse STAT3-GOF-associated manifestations of immune dysregulation and safety.

Results:

Five out of seven patients diagnosed with STAT3-GOF were treated with a JAKi, each for a different indication. Including these patients, outcomes of JAKi treatment have been reported for a total of 41 patients. Treatment with a JAKi led to improvement of diverse autoimmune, inflammatory, or lymphoproliferative manifestations of STAT3-GOF and a therapeutic benefit could be documented for all except two patients. Considering all reported manifestations of immune dysregulation in each patient, complete remission was achieved in 10/41 (24.4%) treated patients.

Conclusions:

JAKi treatment improved diverse manifestations of immune dysregulation in the majority of STAT3-GOF patients, representing a promising therapeutic approach. Long-term follow-up data are needed to evaluate possible risks of prolonged treatment with a JAKi.
