Leniolisib (INN[2][3]), sold under the brand name Joenja, is a medication used for the treatment of activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta syndrome (APDS).[1][4] It is a kinase inhibitor[1][5] that is taken by mouth.[1]
The most common side effects include headache, sinusitis, and atopic dermatitis.[4]
Leniolisib was approved for medical use in the United States in March 2023.[4][6][7] It is the first approved medication for the treatment of activated PI3K delta syndrome.[4] The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers it to be a first-in-class medication.[8]
Medical uses[edit]
Leniolisib is indicated for the treatment of activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta syndrome (activated PI3K delta syndrome) in people twelve years of age and older.[1][4]
Activated PI3K delta syndrome is caused by mutations in either of two genes, PIK3CD or PIK3R1, that regulate the maturation of white blood cells, especially B cells and T cells.[4] This leads to a decrease in immune cells, which makes it difficult for people with activated PI3K delta syndrome to fight off bacterial and viral infections.[4]
Mechanism of action[edit]
Leniolisib is a selective phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitor (PI3Kδ inhibitor), which means it blocks a form of the protein called phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta (PI3Kδ) that is overactive in activated PI3K delta syndrome. By inhibiting PI3Kδ, leniolisib helps normalize immune function as measured by a significant increase in number of immune response generating B cells and reduction in size of lymph nodes.[4]
Adverse effects[edit]
The most common encountered adverse effects were headache, sinusitis, and atopic dermatitis.[1]
History[edit]
Leniolisib was developed by Novartis and subsequently licensed to Pharming Group, a Dutch biotechnology company, in 2019.[6]
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) evaluated the efficacy of leniolisib in the placebo-controlled portion of Study 2201 (NCT02435173), a twelve‑week blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled study of 31 participants twelve years of age and older with confirmed APDS-associated genetic PI3Kδ mutation, with a documented variant in either PIK3CD or PIK3R1.[4]
The FDA granted the application for leniolisib orphan drug, priority review, and rare pediatric disease designations.[4]
