Acaya 100 mg Capsule is primarily used to treat people with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) who have had at least one prior treatment for their malignancy, as well as adults with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). Acaya 100 mg Capsule contains Acalabrutinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Tyrosine kinases are enzymes in the body that send signals to cells, directing them to grow and divide. Acalabrutinib blocks these signals to cancer cells. Cancer cells die when their signals are interrupted. This could help to delay the progression of the cancer.
