  • Carfilzomib is a new proteasome inhibitor that selectively and irreversibly binds to its target, resulting in sustained inhibition. It thus has a better response as compared to bortezomib along with a favorable safety profile. Clinical trials have been approved and under process to study the effects of the drug. The prospect of its combination with several other agents such as immunomodulators, alkylating agents, glucocorticoids, histone deacetylase inhibitors and kinesin spindle protein inhibitors also holds promise.[2]
  • Eda etal is studying a novel Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor CC-292 in combination with the proteasome inhibitor carfilzomib and its rols as anti-multiple myeloma combiantion therpay.[3]
