Active Ingredient Description
Ibrutinib

Ibrutinib is a potent, small-molecule inhibitor of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK). BTK, a member of the Tec kinase family, is an important signalling molecule of the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) and cytokine receptor pathways. Preclinical studies have shown that ibrutinib effectively inhibits malignant B-cell proliferation and survival in vivo as well as cell migration and substrate adhesion in vitro.
