Obinutuzumab (Gazyva)

Class: Glycoengineered, humanized type II anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody.

Mechanism: Produces B-cell depletion through enhanced antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity/phagocytosis and strong direct B-cell death. Compared with rituximab, it can produce deeper and more sustained B-cell depletion.

Established indications: Primarily B-cell malignancies, including CLL and follicular lymphoma.

Nephrotic syndrome: Currently an off-label/emerging therapy, particularly of interest for frequently relapsing or steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome (FRNS/SDNS) and patients who relapse after or respond inadequately to rituximab.

Adult minimal-change disease: A 2026 report specifically described successful obinutuzumab monotherapy in adults with nephrotic syndrome and minimal-change lesions, but this remains early evidence
