A Swedish cohort study reveals increased risk of inflammatory bowel disease in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis patients treated with rituximab compared to other therapies and the general population, underscoring the need for gastroin
This multicenter retrospective study identifies key baseline predictors influencing short-term remission and relapse in pemphigus patients treated with rituximab plus glucocorticoids, guiding personalized treatment strategies.
This study analyzes treatment patterns, outcomes, and prognostic factors in 344 patients with transformed follicular lymphoma in the rituximab era, revealing poor event-free survival but moderate overall survival and high relapse rates, gui
High-sensitivity flow cytometry reveals that early plasmablast depletion predicts 5-year rituximab response in rheumatoid arthritis, while incomplete memory B-cell depletion signals poly-refractory disease.
A nationwide French cohort found earlier diagnosis, falling relapse rates, and major treatment shifts in AQP4+NMOSD and MOGAD, with rituximab linked to lower disability risk in AQP4+NMOSD and overall milder disability trajectories in MOGAD.
In adults with MOGAD, stopping maintenance therapy was associated with a low 1-year relapse risk, especially after longer treatment and a longer relapse-free interval. The findings support individualized decisions and close follow-up after
A French study reveals African ancestry significantly increases relapse risk in iTTP patients treated with rituximab. Key risk factors include male sex and prior relapses, with implications for personalized monitoring strategies.
The HOVON110/ReBeL study compares R2 and R2B regimens in R/R FL, revealing comparable efficacy but higher toxicity with bendamustine addition. Despite low CT-based CR rates, R2B showed numerically better EFS and OS.
A multicenter randomized trial in Japan found that rituximab significantly increased 49‑week relapse‑free survival versus placebo in adults with frequently relapsing or steroid‑dependent nephrotic syndrome, though infusion reactions were co
A comprehensive review of a Japanese cohort study assessing rituximab and cyclophosphamide efficacy in severe microscopic polyangiitis and GPA, highlighting clinical implications.
This phase 2 trial reveals that both pentostatin-rituximab and bendamustine-rituximab combinations achieve high response rates exceeding rituximab alone in multiply relapsed or refractory hairy cell leukemia, with potential superiority tren
The ENRICH trial demonstrates that ibrutinib combined with rituximab significantly improves progression-free survival compared to standard immunochemotherapy in older patients with untreated mantle cell lymphoma, heralding a new chemotherap
A pooled analysis of prospective studies shows ibrutinib plus rituximab improves progression-free survival in Waldenström macroglobulinemia patients with CXCR4 mutations compared to ibrutinib alone, supporting routine CXCR4 testing and comb
A phase 3 randomized trial found rituximab no more effective than standard glucocorticoid-based therapy in inducing remission in eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), with comparable safety and relapse profiles.
