Ibrutinib (Imbruvica) is an anti-neoplastic agent. It is formulated as hard gelatin capsules, tablets and film coated tablets for oral route of administration.

Mechanism of Action

Ibrutinib is a selective small molecule inhibitor of Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase (BTK), a signaling kinase expressed in B cells that functions downstream of the B cell antigen receptor (BCR). Ibrutinib binds to and irreversibly inhibits BTK activity, thereby preventing both B-cell activation and B-cell-mediated signaling. This leads to an inhibition of the growth of malignant B cells that overexpress BTK. BTK, a member of the src-related BTK/Tec family of cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases, is required for B cell receptor signaling, plays a key role in B-cell maturation, and is overexpressed in a number of B-cell malignancies. The expression of BTK in tumor cells is also associated with increased proliferation and survival.

Imbruvica Overview

Imbruvica is marketed for several indications in Gastrointestinal, Immunology, Infectious Disease, and Oncology therapy areas.

Imbruvica is indicated for the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) who have received at least one prior therapy, for the treatment of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), for the treatment of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL) with 17p deletion and for the treatment of patients with Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia (WM). It is also indicated for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) who have received at least one prior therapy, or in first line in the presence of 17p deletion or TP53 mutationin patients unsuitable for chemo-immunotherapy, Waldenstrom’s macroglobulinaemia (WM) who have received at least one prior therapy, or in first-line treatment for patients unsuitable for chemo-immunotherapy, for the treatment of small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), as a first-line treatment for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), for the treatment of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) with 17p deletion. Imbruvica is now approved for all patients with CLL, expanding the number of patients who may benefit from this treatment. Imbruvica as a single-agent targeted therapy for previously untreated patients with active chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) who require systemic therapy and have received at least one prior anti-CD20-based therapy and in combination with obinutuzumab is indicated in adults for the treatment of naive patients with active chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
