Acalabrutinib, sold under the brand name Calquence, is a medication used to treat mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).[4][2] For CLL it may be used initially or in those who have failed other treatment.[2] It is taken by mouth.[3]

Common side effects include headaches, feeling tired, low red blood cells, low platelets, and low white blood cells.[4] Other side effects may include infection, bleeding, further cancer, and atrial fibrillation.[3] Use in pregnancy may harm the baby.[3] It is a Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor, which slows the build-up of cancerous B cells.[2]

Acalabrutinib was approved for medical use in the United States in 2017 and Europe in 2020.[4][2] In the United Kingdom a month of medication costs the NHS about £5,100 as of 2021.[5] This amount in the United States is about 15,000 USD.[6]
