Ibrutinib is a small molecule that acts as an irreversible potent inhibitor of Burton's tyrosine kinase. It is designated as a targeted covalent drug and presented as a promising activity in B-cell malignancies in clinical trials. Ibrutinib was developed by Pharmacyclics Inc and was first approved by the FDA in November 2013 for the treatment of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) under accelerated approval; however, in April 2023, the drug manufacturer withdrew the accelerated approvals for ibrutinib in the US. Ibrutinib was approved by the EMA in October 2014 and by Health Canada in November 2014. It is currently approved for the treatment of various conditions, such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia, and chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) in August 2017. Notably, ibrutinib became the first FDA-approved
Venetoclax is a BCL-2 inhibitor that was initially approved by the FDA in April 2016 [FDA label]. Proteins in the B cell CLL/lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) family are important regulators of the apoptotic (programmed cell death) process , . Venetoclax is used to treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and certain types of small lymphocytic lymphoma [FDA label]. CLL is the most prevalent leukemia diagnosed in Western countries . Venetoclax was developed through reverse engineering of the BCL-2 protein family inhibitor, navitoclax . Venetoclax is approximately 10 times more potent than navitoclax with regard to induction of apoptosis in CLL cells . A new indication was approved in 2018 for the treatment patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), with or without 17p deletion, who have received at least one prior therapy [FDA label]. Previously, this drug was indicated only for patients with 17p gene deletion .
