Ibrutinib in Mantle Cell Lymphoma Patients: Analysis of the Czech Lymphoma Study Group

Introduction: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is usually an aggressive B-cell lymphoma subtype characterized by frequent relapses and is still considered to be incurable. Ibrutinib (iBTK), a first-in-class inhibitor of Bruton′s tyrosine kinase, demonstrated promising outcomes in heavily pretreated MCL patients in several prospective trials. But only limited data on its effect is available in real-world population.
