Abstract |
Idelalisib (GS-1101, CAL-101, Zydelig®) is an orally bioavailable, small-molecule inhibitor of the delta isoform (p110δ) of the enzyme phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). In contrast to the other PI3K isoforms, PI3Kδ is expressed selectively in hematopoietic cells. PI3Kδ signaling is active in many B-cell leukemias and lymphomas. By inhibiting the PI3Kδ protein, idelalisib blocks several cellular signaling pathways that maintain B-cell viability. Idelalisib is the first PI3K inhibitor approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Treatment with idelalisib is indicated in relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), follicular lymphoma (FL), and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). This review presents the preclinical and clinical activity of idelalisib with a focus on clinical studies in CLL. |
