Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase (BTK)A critical kinase for lymphoma cell survival and proliferation
• BTK is expressed and functional across non-T-cell hematopoietic lineages• BTK functions downstream in a variety of receptors
• Essential element of B-cell receptor signaling• Chemokine mediated migration & adhesion• Toll Like Receptor signaling

Ibrutinib Future Challenges
• Patient selection– DLBCL: non-GC – Current trials require central pathology. How will this
work in community setting?• Resistance
– BTK mutations (C481S). Role for other BTK inhibitors?– Other mutations in CLL: PLCg2– Other mutations in DLBCL: CD79B, not CARD11,
MYD88?– Role for rational combinations?
Ibrutinib Future Challenges
• Adverse events– Bleeding?– Leukocytosis? Is it significant?
• Duration of therapy?
Ibrutinib Future Opportunities
• Other lymphomas– Untreated FL
• Compared to R-chemo? Compared to R-len? Added to R-X?
– Untreated WM• Compared to R-X?
– MZL– HCL
