Areas of Study

We are committed to fully exploring the potential of ibrutinib's mechanisms of action

Conducting clinical trials is a vital step in the process of delivering safe and effective therapies to the people who need them most.

We have one of the most robust clinical oncology development programs for a single molecule in the industry. There are more than 50 company-sponsored clinical trials, including 18 ongoing or completed Phase 3 studies, over 11 years.
