Ibrunat Capsule belongs to the group of anti-cancer medicines called protein kinase inhibitors used to treat the following blood cancers in adults- mantle cell lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukaemia, and waldenström's macroglobulinaemia. This medicine may also be used to treat marginal zone lymphoma (cancer that begins in a type of white blood cells that normally fights infection) and chronic graft vs host disease (a complication of hematopoietic stem-cell transplant).
