Ankylosing spondylitis (Bechterew’s disease) is a chronic inflammatory arthritis primarily affecting the spine and sacroiliac joints, causing pain, stiffness, and progressive loss of mobility. It occurs due to immune-mediated inflammation, strongly associated with the HLA-B27 gene, which triggers abnormal inflammatory responses that may lead to spinal fusion over time.
Ankylosing spondylitis (Bechterew’s disease) treatment includes non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, biologic therapies such as tumor necrosis factor inhibitors, interleukin inhibitors, Janus kinase inhibitors, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications to reduce inflammation and preserve mobility. In April 2022, the United States Food and Drug Administration approved upadacitinib, a Janus kinase inhibitor, for adults with active ankylosing spondylitis who had an inadequate response to Tumor Necrosis Factor blockers, expanding oral treatment options within the disease drug pipeline.
The pipeline is gaining momentum due to the rising incidence and expanding patient population worldwide. According to Yuxiao Wei et al., 2025, the global incidence of Ankylosing Spondylitis ranges from 0.1% to 1.4%, typically beginning in the third decade of life, with a higher prevalence in men at a two-to-one ratio. As per Yu-Seon Jung et al., 2025, the prevalence in Korea increased from 26.76 per 100,000 individuals in 2010 to 81.87 per 100,000 in 2023, alongside a growing proportion of older and female patients. According to the Spondylitis Association of America, approximately 1.7 million adults in the United States are affected, while Rupali D et al., 2024, estimate around 1.65 million cases in India with steady annual growth.

Zemprocitinib (LNK01001) is a next-generation, highly selective JAK1 inhibitor being developed by Lynk Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. for the treatment of active ankylosing spondylitis. The ongoing Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is evaluating the efficacy and safety of orally administered LNK01001 taken twice daily. The objective of this phase is to examine its ability to reduce inflammation and disease activity by selectively blocking JAK1-mediated inflammatory signaling pathways. The study enrolls 352 adult patients and is continuing with a long-term open-label extension phase.
AK111 (Gumokimab) is being sponsored by Akeso in a Phase III randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical study for the treatment of active ankylosing spondylitis. The study examines the efficacy and safety of this investigational monoclonal antibody, which selectively targets pro-inflammatory cytokine pathways involved in chronic spinal inflammation and immune-mediated joint damage. AK111 is being administered through subcutaneous injections and is designed to modulate immune responses, reduce disease activity, and improve physical function. The objective of this phase is to confirm clinical benefit and long-term safety in a larger patient population.
VC005 Tablets is a highly selective second-generation JAK1 inhibitor being developed by Jiangsu Vcare Pharmaceutical Technology Co., Ltd. for the treatment of active Ankylosing Spondylitis. The ongoing Phase III multicenter, randomized, double-blind study is examining the efficacy and safety of orally administered VC005 Tablets compared with placebo in approximately 420 patients.
