Zanubrutinib (BeiGene) Overview 2019: An Oral Small Molecule Inhibitor of Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase, Developed to be More Selective with Less Off-Target Effects than Imbruvica – ResearchAndMarkets.com

July 8, 2019 Off By BusinessWire

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Zanubrutinib” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

Zanubrutinib (BeiGene) is an oral small molecule inhibitor of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK), developed to be more selective with less off-target effects than Imbruvica (ibrutinib; AbbVie/Johnson & Johnson). BTK is part of the B-cell receptor signaling pathway, which promotes cell proliferation, adhesion, and survival in many B-cell malignancies.

Zanubrutinib is currently under development for both treatment-nave and relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). While early-phase trials of zanubrutinib have demonstrated promising safety and efficacy, the drug will face significant competition in both the first-line and second-line settings from more well-established therapies in this increasingly crowded indication.

In particular, Imbruvica will serve as a significant barrier to market entry. Not only does Imbruvica share the same mechanism of action as zanubrutinib, but the drug is already approved and widely used in a variety of CLL treatment settings. Nonetheless, BeiGene has initiated a Phase III head-to-head trial testing zanubrutinib against Imbruvica. If zanubrutinib can demonstrate statistically significant improvements in efficacy over Imbruvica, the drug could quickly grow to become an important part of the CLL treatment algorithm.
