Abstract
Despite significantly improving outcomes in patients with B-cell malignancies, covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors are limited by toxicities and the development of resistance. Some toxicities can be life-threatening, such as cardiotoxicity. These toxicities result from off-target effects of covalent BTK inhibitors and frequently lead to dose reductions and discontinuations of the drug. Noncovalent BTK inhibitors bind BTK in a unique fashion and, to date, have demonstrated an excellent safety profile as well as efficacy against a variety of B-cell malignancies. In addition, noncovalent BTK inhibitors have, for the first time, demonstrated efficacy in patients who progressed on other BTK inhibitors. Long-term data and comparative studies are needed to further investigate their efficacy and role in the landscape covalent BTK Inhibitors.
