Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors such as ibrutinib hold a prominent role in the treatment of B cell malignancies. However, further refinement is needed to this class of agents, particularly in terms of adverse events (potentially driven by kinase promiscuity), which preclude their evaluation in nononcology indications. Here, we report the discovery and preclinical characterization of evobrutinib
Bruton的酪氨酸激酶(BTK)抑制剂如ibrutinib在B细胞恶性肿瘤的治疗中起着重要作用。但是,此类药物需要进一步改进,特别是在不良事件(可能由激酶混杂引起的不良事件)方面,这使其无法在非肿瘤适应症中进行评估。在这里,我们报告evobrutinib的发现和临床前表征,evobrutinib是一种具有高激酶选择性的有效的专性共价抑制剂。Evobrutinib表现出足够的临床前药代动力学和药效动力学特征,可在功效模型中进行体内评估。此外,依武鲁替尼对BTK的选择性高于表皮生长因子受体和其他Tec家族激酶,这表明脱靶相关不良反应的可能性较低。
