Bruton tyrosine kinase (Btk) is expressed in B-lymphocytes, myeloid cells and platelets, and Btk-inhibitors (BTKi) are used to treat patients with B-cell malignancies, developed against autoimmune diseases, have been proposed as novel antithrombotic drugs, and been tested in patients with severe COVID-19. However, mild bleeding is frequent in patients with B-cell malignancies treated with the irreversible BTKi ibrutinib and the recently approved 2nd generation BTKi acalabrutinib, zanubrutinib and tirabrutinib, and also in volunteers receiving in a phase-1 study the novel irreversible BTKi BI-705564. In contrast, no bleeding has been reported in clinical trials of other BTKi. These include the brain-penetrant irreversible tolebrutinib and evobrutinib (against multiple sclerosis), the irreversible branebrutinib, the reversible BMS-986142 and fenebrutinib (targeting rheumatoid arthritis and lupus erythematodes), and the reversible covalent rilzabrutinib (against pemphigus and immune thrombocytopenia). Remibrutinib, a novel highly selective covalent BTKi, is currently in clinical studies of autoimmune dermatological disorders. This review describes twelve BTKi approved or in clinical trials. By focusing on their pharmacological properties, targeted disease, bleeding side effects and actions on platelets it attempts to clarify the mechanisms underlying bleeding. Specific platelet function tests in blood might help to estimate the probability of bleeding of newly developed BTKi.

Resistant Disease

Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKi) have significantly changed the treatment landscape for patients with B-cell malignancies including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (WM), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), and marginal zone lymphoma (MZL). Unfortunately, patients with BTKi resistant disease have shortened survival. Clinical and molecular risk factors, such as number of prior therapies and presence of TP53 mutations, can be used to predict patients at the highest risk of developing BTKi resistance. Many mechanisms of BTKi resistance have been reported with mutations in BTK and phospholipase C g 2 supported with the most data. The introduction of venetoclax has lengthened the survival of patients with BTKi resistant disease. Ongoing clinical trials with promising treatment modalities such as next-generation BTKi and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy have reported promising efficacy in patients with BTKi resistant disease. Continued research focusing on resistance mechanisms and methods of how to circumvent resistance is needed to further prolong the survival of patients with BTKi resistant B-cell malignancies.

Btk Inhibitors

The B-cell receptor signaling pathway plays an integral role in the proliferation and survival of malignant B cells. Targeting the B-cell receptor pathway via the inhibition of Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) has evolved the treatment of a variety of B-cell malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia, mantle cell lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma, and Waldenström macroglobulinemia. Currently, there are three BTK inhibitors approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration: ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, and zanubrutinib. This article reviews the pharmacology, clinical efficacy, safety, dosing, drug-drug interactions, and implications for advanced practitioners of BTK inhibitors in the treatment of B-cell malignancies.

AbstractB cell receptor (BCR) signaling is involved in the pathogenesis of B cell malignancies. Activation of BCR signaling promotes the survival and proliferation of malignant B cells. Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a key component of BCR signaling, establishing BTK as an important therapeutic target. Several covalent BTK inhibitors have shown remarkable efficacy in the treatment of B cell malignancies, especially chronic lymphocytic leukemia. However, acquired resistance to covalent BTK inhibitors is not rare in B cell malignancies. A major mechanism for the acquired resistance is the emergence of BTK cysteine 481 (C481)  mutations, which disrupt the binding of covalent BTK inhibitors. Additionally, adverse events due to the off-target inhibition of kinases other than BTK by covalent inhibitors are common. Alternative therapeutic options are needed if acquired resistance or intolerable adverse events occur. Non-covalent BTK inhibitors do not bind to C481, therefore providing a potentially effective option to patients with B cell malignancies, including those who have developed resistance to covalent BTK inhibitors. Preliminary clinical studies have suggested that non-covalent BTK inhibitors are effective and well-tolerated. In this review, we discussed the rationale for the use of non-covalent BTK inhibitors and the preclinical and clinical studies of non-covalent BTK inhibitors in B cell malignancies.
