Résumé

Oclacitinib maleate (Apoquel®, Zoetis Inc.) is commonly used around the world for the control/treatment of pruritus associated with allergic dermatitis and the control/treatment of atopic dermatitis in dogs at least 12 months of age. A new flavored chewable formulation of oclacitinib has been developed where more than 90% of doses offered to dogs were freely accepted when tested in clinical trials. The objective of this study was to determine whether the new chewable formulation of oclacitinib has a similar onset of anti-pruritic activity as the original oclacitinib film-coated tablets (FCT). Twenty-one laboratory beagle dogs were randomized to treatment and received placebo, 0.4-0.6 mg/kg oclacitinib FCT or 0.4-0.6 mg/kg flavored chewable oclacitinib tablet (n = 7/group). Efficacy was measured by assessing reduction in pruritus 1-3 h post-administration of treatments. Pruritus was induced by injecting canine IL-31, intravenously (2.5 μg/kg), approximately 15 min prior to the pruritus observation window. Results from this study demonstrated both oclacitinib FCT and the flavored chewable oclacitinib tablet significantly reduced IL-31-induced pruritus within 1-3 h post-dosing compared to placebo (p = .0069 and .0113, respectively), suggesting the new formulation of oclacitinib chewable tablets works as quickly to reduce pruritus in dogs as the oclacitinib FCT.
