Abstract

Objective Rituximab (RTX) is a chimeric monoclonal CD20-antibody. Lack of efficacy has been suggested to be related to the presence of anti-drug antibodies (ADA). The aims of this study were to determine if ADA impact the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of RTX in children, whether the formation of ADA differs between various immune-mediated diseases and if it is related to the occurrence of infusion-related reactions (IRR). Methods All children 8 AU/ml. Results Of twenty-six children treated with RTX for various immune-mediated diseases, six patients were ADA-positive (23.1%). In all ADA-positive patients, RTX concentrations were undetectable in contrast to ADA-negative patients (median RTX concentration 3.1 μg/ml; IQR 0.57-12.0; p
