Growing appreciation of the importance of B-cell–targeted therapies in multiple sclerosis (MS) management has spurred research into the potential role that Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors may play in MS management. In this activity, based on a recent live satellite symposium, expert faculty will put BTK inhibitors into context, starting with the expanding understanding of the inflammatory and neurodegenerative processes of MS, the roles of B cells, microglia, and T cells, and how the ongoing investigations of BTK inhibitors as possible MS treatments build upon the successes of B-cell–targeted therapies. They will also review the evidence related to current clinical trials and engage learners in a case-based discussion exploring how BTK inhibitors might someday be deployed to address unmet needs of individuals with MS. Upon completion of this CE activity, participants wil
