Efficacy and safety of ibrutinib in Japanese patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: In this multicenter, single-arm, phase II study, the efficacy and safety of ibrutinib were examined in Japanese patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Patients (age ≥20 years) with relapsed or refractory MCL who had progressed after receiving at least one prior treatment regimen, were enrolled. Patients were treated with oral ibrutinib (560 mg once daily; 28-day cycle) until disease progression (or relapse), unacceptable toxicity, or study end. The primary end-point was overall response rate. Secondary end-points included duration of response (DOR), time to response, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival, and safety. Of the 16 patients who received treatment, 5 patients discontinued the study (progressive disease, 4; sepsis, 1). Median duration of ibru
