Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) is an enzyme that is present in hematopoietic cells other
than T cells and is necessary for downstream signal transduction from various
hematopoietic receptors including the B cell receptor as well as some Fc, chemokine, and
adhesion receptors, and is crucial for both B cell development and osteoclastogenesis.
Although down-regulated in normal plasma cells, Btk is highly expressed in the malignant
cells from many myeloma patients and some cell lines. Ibrutinib is a potent and specific
inhibitor of Btk currently in Phase 2 and 3 clinical trials. The current study is
designed and intended to determine the safety and efficacy of ibrutinib in combination
with pomalidomide and dexamethasone in subjects with relapsed/refractory multiple
myeloma.
