Mutations in Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) gene are responsible for X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), which is characterized by recurrent bacterial infections, profound hypogammaglobulinemia, and decreased numbers of mature B cells in peripheral blood.

ABSTRACT Relapsed/refractory (R/R) mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) remains a therapeutic challenge, particularly in patients with high‐risk features or prior exposure to Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKis). The advent of T‐cell–redirecting immunotherapies, including chimeric antigen receptor T‐cell (CAR‐T) therapy and bispecific antibodies (BsAbs ...
