Uses of Imbruvica 

Imbruvica 140mg Capsule (Ibrutinib) is used in the treatment of: 

  • Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL)

  • Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/Small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL)

  • Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia (WM)

  • Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL)

  • Chronic graft versus host disease (GVHD)

The active ingredient of the Imbruvica 140 mg capsule is Ibrutinib. It is a small-molecule inhibitor of BTK.

Pharmacodynamics

Ibrutinib is a small-molecule inhibitor of BTK. It forms a covalent bond with a cysteine residue in the BTK active site and then leads to inhibition of BTK enzymatic activity. BTK is a signaling molecule of the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) and cytokine receptor pathways. Nonclinical studies suggest that ibrutinib works to inhibit malignant B-cell proliferation and survival in vivo along with cell migration and substrate adhesion in vitro.
