Pirtobrutinib, sold under the brand name Jaypirca, is an anticancer medication that is used to treat mantle cell lymphoma. [1] [2] [4] It inhibits B cell lymphocyte proliferation and survival by binding and inhibiting Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK). [5] It is taken by mouth. [1]

Contents

The most common adverse reactions include fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, diarrhea, edema, dyspnea, pneumonia, and bruising. [4] [6] The most common adverse reactions when used to treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic leukemia include fatigue, bruising, cough, musculoskeletal pain, COVID-19, diarrhea, pneumonia, abdominal pain, dyspnea, hemorrhage, edema, nausea, pyrexia, and headache. [7]

Pirtobrutinib was approved for medical use in the United States in January 2023, [4] [8] [9] [10] and in the European Union in November 2023. [2]

Medical uses

In the US, pirtobrutinib is indicated to treat relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma after at least two lines of systemic therapy, including a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor. [1] [11] In December 2023, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) expanded the indication for pirtobrutinib to include the treatment of adults with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic leukemia. [7] [12]

In the EU, pirtobrutinib is indicated for the treatment of mantle cell lymphoma. [2]

Mechanism of action

B cells are white cells of the lymphocyte subtype that produce antibodies, but when some of them grow uncontrollably they can be a cause of cancer. A key enzyme in B cell stimulation and survival is BTK, and pirtobrutinib inhibits BTK in a way that is different from the prototypical BTK inhibitor ibrutinib by binding in a different way that avoids a genetic change (mutation at active site cysteine residue C481 in BTK) that can make some tumors less responsive to ibrutinib. [5]

History

Pirtobrutinib is manufactured by Eli Lilly and Company and was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in January 2023, for the treatment of mantle cell lymphoma that has become refractory to other BTK inhibitors. [13]

Efficacy was evaluated in BRUIN (NCT03740529), an open-label, multicenter, single-arm trial of pirtobrutinib monotherapy that included 120 participants with mantle cell lymphoma previously treated with a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor. [4] Participants had a median of three prior lines of therapy, with 93% having two or more prior lines. [4] The most common prior Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors received were ibrutinib (67%), acalabrutinib (30%), and zanubrutinib (8%); 83% had discontinued their last Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor due to refractory or progressive disease. [4] The trial was conducted at 49 sites in 10 countries in the United States, Europe, Australia, and Asia. [6] The same trial was used to assess safety and efficacy. [6]

Efficacy was evaluated in BRUIN (NCT03740529], an open-label, international, single-arm, multicohort trial that included 108 participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma previously treated with at least two prior lines of therapy, including a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor and a B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitor. [7] Participants received a median of five prior lines of therapy (range: 2 to 11). [7] Seventy-seven percent of participants discontinued the last BTK inhibitor for refractory or progressive disease. [7] Pirtobrutinib was administered orally at 200 mg once daily and was continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. [7]

Society and culture

In April 2023, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a positive opinion, recommending the granting of a conditional marketing authorization for the medicinal product Jaypirca, intended for the treatment of relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). [14] The applicant for this medicinal product is Eli Lilly Nederland B.V. [14] Pirtobrutinib was approved for medical use in the European Union in November 2023. [2]

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, comprising about 6% of cases. It is named for the mantle zone of the lymph nodes where it develops. The term 'mantle cell lymphoma' was first adopted by Raffeld and Jaffe in 1991.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitor</span>

Phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitors are a class of medical drugs that are mainly used to treat advanced cancers. They function by inhibiting one or more of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) enzymes, which are part of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. This signal pathway regulates cellular functions such as growth and survival. It is strictly regulated in healthy cells, but is always active in many cancer cells, allowing the cancer cells to better survive and multiply. PI3K inhibitors block the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and thus slow down cancer growth. They are examples of a targeted therapy. While PI3K inhibitors are an effective treatment, they can have very severe side effects and are therefore only used if other treatments have failed or are not suitable.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Ibrutinib</span> Medication used in cancer treatment

Ibrutinib, sold under the brand name Imbruvica among others, is a small molecule drug that inhibits B-cell proliferation and survival by irreversibly binding the protein Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK). Blocking BTK inhibits the B-cell receptor pathway, which is often aberrantly active in B cell cancers. Ibrutinib is therefore used to treat such cancers, including mantle cell lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and Waldenström's macroglobulinemia. Ibrutinib also binds to C-terminal Src Kinases. These are off-target receptors for the BTK inhibitor. Ibrutinib binds to these receptors and inhibits the kinase from promoting cell differentiation and growth. This leads to many different side effects like left atrial enlargement and atrial fibrillation during the treatment of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia.
