**About Civorebrutinib **

Civorebrutinib (also known as EVER001) is a next-generation covalent reversible 
Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor in development globally for the treatment
of renal diseases. BTK is an essential component of the B-cell receptor signaling
pathways that regulate the survival, activation, proliferation, and differentiation
of B lymphocytes. Targeting BTK with small molecule inhibitors has been demonstrated
