How it works

From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (WAYRILZ). It describes the substance, not this exact product.

Rilzabrutinib is a small-molecule, covalent, reversible kinase inhibitor targeting Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK).

Rilzabrutinib mediates its therapeutic effect in ITP through immune modulation including 1) inhibition of B cell activation, and 2) interruption of antibody-coated cell phagocytosis by Fcγ receptor (FcγR) in spleen and liver.
