Pirtobrutinib is a special kind of inhibitor that’s made just for treating mantle cell lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia. It works by focusing on the BTK pathway, which is really important for cancer cells to live and grow in those diseases. This medicine comes in two strengths, 50 mg and 100 mg, in tablet form.
Doctors usually recommend taking 200 mg of this stuff every day. You can take it as two 100 mg tablets or four 50 mg ones. Each bottle has 60 pills, which is enough for a full month if you’re taking the usual 200 mg dose every day.
This BTK inhibitor has shown it’s really good at fighting cancer and it seems pretty safe, based on studies with mantle cell lymphoma and CLL patients.
