Ibrutinib in chronic lymphocytic leukemia and B cell malignancies.

چکیده

Recent clinical data suggest remarkable activity of ibrutinib, the first-in-class covalent inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), as well as excellent activity in other B cell malignancies, including in particular mantle cell lymphoma and Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia. This review evaluates the data from ongoing clinical and correlative studies of ibrutinib in B cell malignancies with a particular focus on CLL, and considers these data in the context of other B cell receptor pathway inhibitors.

Ibrutinib impairs the phagocytosis of rituximab-coated leukemic cells from chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients by human macrophages.

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...

Concomitant imatinib and ibrutinib in a patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

The availability of kinase and other small-molecule inhibitors to treat hematologic malignancies is increasing. Accordingly, novel regimens that employ these therapeutics are rapidly evolving. Herein we report the safe and effective administration of two targeted kinase inhibitors in a patient with concomitant chronic myelogenous leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Incidence and management of toxicity associated with ibrutinib and idelalisib: a practical approach

The use of novel B-cell receptor signaling inhibitors results in high response rates and long progression-free survival in patients with indolent B-cell malignancies, such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia, follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma and Waldenström macroglobulinemia. Ibrutinib, the first-in-class inhibitor of Bruton tyrosine kinase, and idelalisib, the first-in-class inhibitor of ...

The HELIOS trial protocol: a phase III study of ibrutinib in combination with bendamustine and rituximab in relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Ibrutinib is an orally administered, covalent inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase with activity in B-cell malignancies based on Phase I/II studies. We describe the design and rationale for the Phase III HELIOS trial (trial registration: EudraCT No. 2012-000600-15; UTN No. U1111-1135-3745) investigating whether ibrutinib added to bendamustine and rituximab (BR) provides benefits over BR alone ...

The Thermodynamic Overlapping pKa of the Antitumor Drug Ibrutinib Using Multiwavelength UV/VIS-Spectroscopy and Potentiometry

Ibrutinib (USAN, also known as PCI-32765 and marketed under the name Imbruvica) (Figure 1) of formula C25H24N6O2 and molar mass 440.497 is an anticancer drug targeting B-cell malignancies. It was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in November 2013 for the treatment of mantle cell lymphoma and in February 2014 for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Ibrutinib is cur...
