Interactions
Increased exposure w/ medicinal products that strongly or moderately inhibit CYP3A4. Avoid grapefruit & Seville oranges as these contain moderate inhibitors of CYP3A4. Decreased exposure w/ drugs increasing stomach pH (eg, PPIs). To minimize the potential GI tract interaction, oral narrow therapeutic range, P-gp or BCRP substrates eg, digoxin or methotrexate should be taken at least 6 hr before or after treatment.

Mode of Action
Ibrutinib is a small-molecule inhibitor of BTK. Ibrutinib forms a covalent bond with a cysteine residue in the BTK active site, leading to inhibition of BTK enzymatic activity. BTK is a signaling molecule of the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) and cytokine receptor pathways. BTK’s role in signaling through the B-cell surface receptors results in activation of pathways necessary for B-cell trafficking, chemotaxis, and adhesion. Nonclinical studies show that ibrutinib inhibits malignant B-cell proliferation and survival in vivo as well as cell migration and substrate adhesion in vitro.
