Pharmacology
Pirtobrutinib is a small molecule, noncovalent inhibitor of BTK, a signaling protein of the B-cell antigen receptor and cytokine receptor pathways; it binds wild-type BTK and BTK harboring C481 mutations to inhibit BTK kinase activity and suppress malignant B-cell proliferation.
CD19-directed genetically modified autologous T cell immunotherapy; binding of anti-CD19 CAR T cells to CD19-expressing target cells activates CD28 and CD3-zeta co-stimulatory signaling cascades leading to T cell activation, proliferation, acquisition of effector functions, secretion of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, and killing of CD19-expressing cancer and normal B cells.
