Rituximab is standard care in a number of lymphoma subtypes, including follicular lymphoma (FL), although many patients are resistant to rituximab, or develop resistance with repeated treatment, and a high proportion relapse. Obinutuzumab is a novel anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody with improved efficacy over rituximab. It is approved for previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), and for use with bendamustine in patients with rituximab-relapsed/refractory FL.
