Obinutuzumab is a recombinant, humanized anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody.1 Treatment with obinutuzumab resulted in greater complete renal response at Week 52 (35% vs 23%; p = 0.115) and Week 104 (41% vs 23%; p = 0.026) in patients with lupus nephritis, versus placebo, meeting the primary endpoint of the phase II NOBILITY trial.1-3 No safety signals were reported.1
Below, we present a visual abstract summarizing a post-hoc analysis of the phase II NOBILITY trial on kidney outcomes with obinutuzumab, presented by Rovin et al.2 at the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) annual meeting (ACR Convergence 2023), and by Rovin et al.3 published in Arthritis Rheumatol. We also include a post-hoc analysis by Vital et al.3 on B-cell recovery with obinutuzumab, presented at the ACR Convergence 2023.
