| CAS No | 936563-96-1 |
| Molecular Formula | C25H24N6O2 |
| Molecular Weight | 440.5 |
| Appearance | white to off-white solid |
| Solubility | It is practically insoluble in aqueous solutions of pH 4.5-8 and slightly soluble in HCl at pH 1.2. Ibrutinib is practically insoluble in non-polar solvents such as hexane and heptanes, sparingly soluble in ethyl acetate, ethanol and acetonitrile, soluble in acetone and methanol and freely soluble in N,N-dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran and dichloromethane. |
| Water Solubility | - |
| Polymorphism | Polymorphism was observed, three polymorphic forms of ibrutinib were identified and one of them which is the most thermodynamically stable is consistently formed during the active substance manufacturing process and used in the manufacturing of the finished product. |
| pKa (Strongest Acidic) | 19.7 (Predicted) |
| pKa (Strongest Basic) | 6.58 (Predicted) |
| Log P | 2.76 (Predicted) |
| Identification | IR, HPLC |
| Degradation | The forced degradation studies revealed that ibrutinib is sensitive to acid, alkaline and oxidative stress conditions. The drug substance was stable with respect to heat and light. Also, it has been shown that no change in polymorph of the drug substance occurs upon storage. |
| Hygroscopic | non-hygroscopic |
| Photostability study | Photo stable |

| Indications and Usage | IMBRUVICA is a kinase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of adult patients with: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) who have received at least one prior therapy Accelerated approval was granted for this indication based on overall response rate. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/Small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/Small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) with 17p deletion Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia (WM) Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) who require systemic therapy and have received at least one prior anti-CD20-based therapy Accelerated approval was granted for this indication based on overall response rate. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial. Chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) after failure of one or more lines of systemic therapy |
| Dosage and Administration |
MCL and MZL: 560 mg taken orally once daily CLL/SLL, WM, and cGVHD: 420 mg taken orally once daily Dose should be taken orally with a glass of water. Do not open, break, or chew the capsules. Do not cut, crush, or chew the tablets |
| Mechanism 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. |
| Absorption |
Ibrutinib exposure increases with doses up to 840 mg (1.5 times the maximum approved recommended dosage) in patients with B-cell malignancies. The mean steady-state AUC (% coefficient of variation) observed in patients at 560 mg with MCL is 865 (69%) ngh/mL and with MZL is 978 (82%) ngh/mL, and in patients at 420 mg with CLL/SLL is 708 (71%) ngh/mL, with WM is 324 (48%) ngh/mL, and with cGVHD is 1159 (50%) ngh/mL.Steady-state concentrations of ibrutinib without CYP3A inhibitors were achieved with an accumulation ratio of 1 to 1.6 after 1 week of multiple daily doses of 420 mg or 560 mg. Absorption Absolute bioavailability of ibrutinib in fasted condition was 2.9% (90% CI: 2.1, 3.9) in healthy subjects. Ibrutinib is absorbed after oral administration with a median Tmax of 1 hour to 2 hour In vitro studies suggest that ibrutinib is not a substrate of p-glycoprotein (P-gp) or breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). |
| Food Effect | The administration of IMBRUVICA with a high-fat and high-calorie meal (800 calories to 1,000 calories with approximately 50% of total caloric content of the meal from fat) increased ibrutinib Cmax by 2- to 4-fold and AUC by approximately 2-fold, compared with administration of ibrutinib after overnight fasting. |
| Distribution | Reversible binding of ibrutinib to human plasma protein in vitro was 97.3% with no concentration dependence in the range of 50 ng/mL to 1000 ng/mL. The volume of distribution (Vd) was 683 L, and the apparent volume of distribution at steady state (Vd,ss/F) was approximately 10,000 L. |
| Metabolism | Metabolism is the main route of elimination for ibrutinib. It is metabolized to several metabolites primarily by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A and to a minor extent by CYP2D6. The active metabolite, PCI-45227, is a dihydrodiol metabolite with inhibitory activity towards BTK approximately 15 times lower than that of ibrutinib. The range of the mean metabolite to parent ratio for PCI-45227 at steady-state is 1 to 2.8. |
| Elimination |
Elimination Intravenous clearance was 62 L/h in fasted conditions and 76 L/h in fed conditions. In line with the high first-pass effect, the apparent oral clearance is 2000 L/h in fasted conditions and 1000 L/h in fed conditions. The half-life of ibrutinib is 4 hours to 6 hours. Excretion Ibrutinib, mainly in the form of metabolites, is eliminated primarily via feces. After a single oral administration of radiolabeled ibrutinib, 90% of radioactivity was excreted within 168 hours,with 80% excreted in the feces and less than 10% eliminated in urine. Unchanged ibrutinib accounted for 1% of the radiolabeled excreted dose in feces and none in urine, with the remainder of the excreted dose being metabolites. |
| Peak plasma time (Tmax) | 1 hour to 2 hours |
| Half life | 4 hours to 6 hours |
| Bioavailability | fasted condition was 2.9% |
| Age, gender | Age and sex have no clinically meaningful effect on ibrutinib pharmacokinetics. |
