In open label clinical trials of acalabrutinib in patients with CLL and mantle cell lymphoma, serum aminotransferase elevations occurred in 19% to 23% of patients during therapy and rose to above 5 times ULN in 2% to 3%. These elevations were transient and resolved spontaneously but occasionally led to early drug discontinuation. Among the 610 patients treated with acalabrutinib in pre-registration trials, there were no instances of clinically apparent liver injury attributed to its use, but there was a single instance of acute liver failure and death due to reactivation of hepatitis B. Similar cases of reactivation have been reported with ibrutinib, another small molecule inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase. Experience with acalabrutinib has been limited and the frequency of clinically apparent liver injury and reactivation of hepatitis B are not known. The majority of cases have occurred in patients taking multiple immunosuppressive agents and not just acalabrutinib alone.；Likelihood score: D (possible rare cause of reactivation of hepatitis B).

Reversible binding of acalabrutinib to human plasma protein is approximately 97.5%. The in vitro mean blood-to-plasma ratio is about 0.7. _In vitro_ experiments at physiologic concentrations show that acalabrutinib can be 93.7% bound to human serum albumin and 41.1% bound to alpha-1-acid glycoprotein.

Acalabrutinib is a Bruton Tyrosine Kinase inhibitor that prevents the proliferation, trafficking, chemotaxis, and adhesion of B cells. It is taken every 12 hours and can cause other effects such as atrial fibrillation, other malignancies, cytopenia, hemorrhage, and infection.

Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) is a rare yet aggressive type of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) with poor prognosis. Subsequently, relapse is common in MCL patients and ultimately represents disease progression. Lymphoma occurs when immune system lymphocytes grow and multiply uncontrollably. Such cancerous lymphocytes may travel to many parts of the body, including the lymph nodes, spleen, bone marrow, blood, and other organs where they can multiply and form a mass(es) called a tumor. One of the main kinds of lymphocytes that can develop into cancerous lymphomas are the body's own B-lymphocytes (B-cells). Bruton Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) is a signalling molecule of the B-cell antigen receptor and cytokine receptor pathways. Such BTK signaling causes the activation of pathways necessary for B-cell proliferation, trafficking, chemotaxis, and adhesion. Acalabrutinib is a small molecule inhibitor of BTK. Both acalabrutinib and its active metabolite, ACP-5862, act to form a covalent bond with a cysteine residue (Cys481) in the BTK active site, leading to inhibition of BTK enzymatic activity. As a result, acalabrutinib inhibits BTK-mediated activation of downstream signaling proteins CD86 and CD69, which ultimately inhibits malignant B-cell proliferation and survival Whereas ibrutinib is typically recognized as the first-in-class BTK inhibitor, acalabrutinib is considered a second generation BTK inhibitor primarily because it demonstrates highter selectivity and inhibition of the targeted activity of BTK while having a much greater IC50 or otherwise virtually no inhibition on the kinase activities of ITK, EGFR, ERBB2, ERBB4, JAK3, BLK, FGR, FYN, HCK, LCK, LYN, SRC, and YES1. In effect, acalabrutinib was rationally designed to be more potent and selective than ibrutinib, all the while demonstrating fewer adverse effects - in theory - because of the drug's minimized off target effects.
