Synthetic organic
Comment: Zanubrutinib (BGB-3111) is a potent, selective and irreversible BTK inhibitor that was developed by BeiGene for utility in the treatment of B cell cancers, such as non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) [1,4].
![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Summary of Clinical Use ![]() |
zanubrutinib was evaluated for efficacy in a large number of clinical trials, across a range of hematological cancers. Click here to link to ClinicalTrials.gov's full list of zanubrutinib/BGB-3111 studies. The FDA first approved zanubrutinib in November 2019 for the treatment of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL; in adult patients who have received at least one prior therapy). In June 2020, the drug was approved in China for the treatment of adult patients with CLL/SLL who have received at least one prior therapy, and for patients with MCL who have received at least one prior therapy. In the EU, zanubrutinib holds orphan designation for lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma, which was granted in May 2019. In April 2021, the The FDA accepted a supplemental new drug application (sNDA) for zanubrutinib for the treatment of adults with Waldenström macroglobulinemia, and approval followed in August that year. FDA approval was expanded in early 2023, to include treatment of CLL, based on evidence from the phase 3 SEQUOIA study (NCT03336333) [2-3]. |
