Zasocitinib (TAK-279, NDI-034858) is a drug which is an orally active, highly selective tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) inhibitor. It has been researched for various inflammatory conditions including psoriatic arthritis and Crohn's disease.[1][2][3] It is significantly more selective than earlier compounds over side targets such as JAK1, which is hoped to give it an improved side effect profile.[4]
