Mode of Action
CD20-directed cytolytic antibody; upon binding to CD20, obinutuzumab mediates B-cell lysis through 1) engagement of immune effector cells, 2) by directly activating intracellular death signaling pathways and/or, 3) activation of the complement cascade
CD20 antigen is expressed on the surface of pre B- and mature B-lymphocytes; the immune effector cell mechanisms include antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis
