Non-Linear Rituximab Pharmacokinetics and Complex Relationship between Rituximab Concentrations and Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies (ANCA) in ANCA-Associated Vasculitis: The RAVE Trial Revisited
Résumé
Rituximab is approved in patients with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) and leads to a decrease of ANCA levels. The objectives of this study were to investigate the non-linear pharmacokinetics of rituximab and the relationship between its concentrations and ANCA levels in AAV patients.
