Pharmacology
BREYANZI is a CD19-directed genetically modified autologous T cell immunotherapy; CAR binding to CD19 on tumor and normal B cells triggers CD3 zeta-mediated activation and cytotoxic killing of target cells, while 4-1BB (CD137) costimulatory signaling enhances CAR T cell expansion and persistence.
Zanubrutinib is a small-molecule inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) that forms a covalent bond with a cysteine residue in the BTK active site, inhibiting BTK activity and thereby blocking B-cell proliferation, trafficking, chemotaxis, and adhesion pathways driven by B-cell antigen receptor and cytokine receptor signaling.
