Summary of Clinical Use Click here for help
Early stage clinical efficacy was reported in hematological malignancies [3,6-7,9]. Duvelisib (under its long chemical name (S)-3-(1-(9H-purin-6-ylamino)ethyl)-8-chloro-2-phenylisoquinolin-1(2H)-one) was initially granted orphan drug (OD) designation by the EMA for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and by the FDA for CLL and follicular lymphoma. Full FDA approval was granted in September 2018 for the treatment of relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL after at least two prior therapies [5]. Accelerated approval for the treatment relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (FL) after at least two prior systemic therapies was also granted at this time. Duvelisib packaging carries a boxed warning to alert prescribers and patients to the risk of 4 fatal and/or serious toxicities that are associated with use of ths drug. These 4 adverse reactions are infections, diarrhea or colitis, cutaneous reactions, and pneumonitis.

In October 2019 FDA OD designation was granted for the treatment of T-cell lymphoma. The EMA has approved duvelisib (May 2021) as a treatment for CLL and follicular lymphoma
Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects Click here for help
Phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K)-δ and PI3K-γ are preferentially expressed in immune cells. Inhibitors targeting these isozymes are hypothesized to modulate both the adaptive and innate immune responses, generating an anti-inflammatory effect. As the PI3Ks are essential mediators of the chemokine receptor signalling that is required for migration and survival of malignant hematological cells [1], inhibitors have been exploited as treatments for hematological cancers. Duvelisib has been shown to promote apoptosis in malignant B cells [2].
