Conclusions: For the BTK inhibitors tested in this study, analysis of the inactivation kinetics yielded a more accurate measurement of potency and selectivity than conventional single-time point inhibition measurements. Subtle but clear differences were identified between clinically tested BTK inhibitors which may translate into differentiated clinical efficacy and safety.”
