Brief description/objective

The Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor ibrutinib and the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib have single-agent activity, non-overlapping toxicities, and regulatory approval in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). In vitro, their combination provides synergistic cytotoxicity. In this investigator-initiated phase 1/2 trial, we established the recommended phase 2 dose of ibrutinib in combination with bortezomib, and assessed its efficacy in patients with relapsed or refractory MCL.
