Pharmacology
Obinutuzumab is a humanized anti-CD20 IgG1 monoclonal antibody with reduced fucose content that mediates B-cell lysis via immune effector cell engagement (ADCC and ADCP), direct intracellular death signaling, and complement activation; its reduced fucose content confers greater ADCC activity than rituximab.
Lenalidomide is an immunomodulatory agent that mediates cellular activities through binding to cereblon, a component of a cullin ring E3 ubiquitin ligase enzyme complex, leading to degradation of substrate proteins and resulting in direct cytotoxic and immunomodulatory effects.
