Health-related quality of life data from a phase 3, international, randomized, open-label, multicenter study in patients with previously treated mantle cell lymphoma treated with ibrutinib versus temsirolimus.

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive, incurable B-cell malignancy. Ibrutinib has been shown to be highly active for patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MCL. The RAY trial (MCL3001) was a phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter study that compared ibrutinib with temsirolimus in patients with R/R MCL.

Indirect Treatment Comparisons of Ibrutinib Versus Physician's Choice and Idelalisib Plus Ofatumumab in Patients With Previously Treated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia.

Purpose: Treatment options for patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (R/R CLL) are limited. Until recently, few effective treatment options existed, and even with the advent of new agents, studies evaluating comparative efficacy are scarce. In the Ibrutinib Versus Ofatumumab in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (RESONATE) Phase III study, ibrutinib, an oral, once-a-day, first-in-class covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor, improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) compared with ofatumumab (PFS hazard ratio [HR] = 0.

Effects of cytochrome P450 inhibitors on the biotransformation of fluorogenic substrates by adult male rat liver microsomes and cDNA-expressed rat cytochrome P450 isoforms.

We have evaluated the use of a panel of six fluorogenic cytochrome P450 (CYP) substrates as a potential tool for rapid screening for global changes in CYP activity in rats under different physiological conditions. The biotransformation of 3-[2-(N,N-diethyl-N-methylammonium)ethyl]-7-methoxy-4-methylcoumarin (AMMC), 7-benzyloxy-4-(trifluoromethyl)-coumarin, 7-benzyloxyquinoline, 3-cyano-7-ethoxycoumarin, 7-methoxy-4-(trifluoromethyl)-coumarin, and 7-ethoxy-4-trifluoromethyl-coumarin by microsomes from adult male rat liver were characterized, their sensitivities to 15 putative inhibitors were determined and compared to similar experiments using nine different complementary DNA (cDNA)-expressed rat CYPs. Inhibitory profiles of the substrates in microsomes were different from each other, with some overlap, suggesting that each substrate is to some extent biotransformed by a different CYP isoform.
