Rituximab

Rituximab (biosimilar is Zytux) is a chimeric monoclonal antibody against the protein CD20, which is primarily found on the surface of immune system B-cells. Rituximab destroys B-cells and is therefore used to treat diseases which are characterized by excessive numbers of B-cells, overactive B-cells, or dysfunctional B-cells. This includes many lymphomas, leukemias, transplant rejection, and autoimmune disorders.
