چکیده
Panniculitis in Patients Undergoing Treatment With the Bruton Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Ibrutinib for Lymphoid Leukemias Ibrutinib is an oral inhibitor of Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) withmarked activity in several B-cell malignant neoplasms.1 Commonly reported adverse events include diarrhea, infection, fatigue, arthralgias, pyrexia, hypertension, and neutropenia.2 Grade 1 and 2 rashes have been described but are generally self-limited and not treatment limiting. To our knowledge, panniculitis, an inflammation of the subcutaneous adipose tissue, has not yet been described during ibrutinib therapy.We describe 5 patients who developed panniculitis during ibrutinib treatment for lymphoid leukemias.

The Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, ibrutinib, has been approved for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia, mantle cell lymphoma, and Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia. Acquired resistance to ibrutinib due to BTK C481S mutation has been reported. Mutations in PLCγ2 can also mediate resistance to ibrutinib. Untoward effects due to off-target effects are also disadvantages of ibruti...

The safety and efficacy of ibrutinib, an oral inhibitor of Bruton tyrosine kinase, were evaluated with chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) in a multicenter phase 1b study. Patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia received bendamustine and rituximab (BR) or fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab (FCR) for up to 6 cycles with daily ibrutinib (420 mg) until progressive disease or ...

Ibrutinib is an oral irreversible inhibitor of the bruton tyrosine kinase (Btk) which has shown promising efficacy and excellent tolerability in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and other B-cell malignancies. Ibrutinib inhibits BCR signaling, impairs chemokine-mediated adhesion and migration, and induces moderate levels of apoptosis on CLL cells. It also reduces TCR downstream a...
