Pharmacodynamics

Obinutuzumab is more potent than rituximab in depleting B-cells, antitumor activity, and tumor regression.

Mechanism of action

In contrast to rituximab, which is a classic type I CD20 antibody, obinutuzumab binds to type II CD20 antibodies. This allows obinutuzumab to have a much higher induction of antibody-dependant cytotoxicity and a higher direct cytotoxic effect than the classic CD20 antibodies.

Target Actions Organism
AB-lymphocyte antigen CD20
antibody
regulator
Humans
Absorption

Obinutuzumab is administered intravenously, so its absorption is 100%.

Volume of distribution

Obinutuzumab has a volume of distribution of about 3.8 L.

Protein binding

Obinutuzumab does not bind to plasma proteins.

Metabolism

Obinutuzumab is not metabolized by the liver.

Route of elimination

The route of elimination of obinutuzumab was not indicated (FDA label).

Half-life

obinutuzumab的半衰期是28.4天。

Clearance

The clearance of obinutuzumab is 0.09L/day.

Toxicity

The most serious toxicities observed with obinutuzumab are Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation and progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). HBV reactivation can occur with all anti-CD20 antibodies and can result in hepatic failure, fulminant hepatitis, and death. PML occurs as a result of JC virus infection and can be fatal as well. Other common but less serious adverse reactions include infusion reactions (pre-treat with glucocorticoids, acetaminophen, and anti-histamine to prevent this), neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and Tumor Lysis Syndrome (TLS) (pre-treat patients, especially with a high lymphocyte count and/or a high tumor burden, with anti-hyperuricemics and hydration). It is also recommended to NOT administer live virus vaccinations prior to or during obinutuzumab treatment.
