One study investigated effects of the JAK inhibitor tofacitinib on dermatological manifestations in 13 Asian female SAPHO patients (12 weeks of 5 mg tofacitinib, twice daily).

Results were positive with significant benefit for nail lesions, palmoplantar pustulosis and associated quality of life.

Bisphosphonates may achieve rapid remission of bone inflammation and associated pain, cDMARDs and TNFi are effective for bone and (to some extent) skin involvement, while JAKi may be an option especially in otherwise treatment refractory skin and nail involvement.

While a reduction of systemic inflammatory parameters was observed (CRP and ESR), no information was provided on bone involvement.
