Ublituximab, sold under the brand name Briumvi, is an immunomodulator used for the treatment of multiple sclerosis.[1][2] It is a CD20-directed cytolytic monoclonal antibody.[1]

The most common adverse reactions include infusion reactions, including fever, chills, headache, influenza-like illness, elevated heart rate, nausea, throat irritation, reddening of the skin (erythema) and an anaphylactic (allergic) reaction; infections including serious and fatal bacterial, fungal, and new or reactivated viral infections and reduction in immunoglobulins.[2]

It was approved for medical use in the United States in December 2022.[1][3][4]

Medical uses

Ublituximab is indicated for the treatment of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis.[1][2]

History

Researchers demonstrated the efficacy of ublituximab in two randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group, active comparator-controlled clinical trials of identical design, in participants with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis treated for 96 weeks.[2] Participants were randomized to receive either ublituximab or teriflunomide, the active comparator.[2] The primary outcome of both studies was the annualized relapse rate over the treatment period.[2] In both studies, ublituximab significantly lowered the annualized relapse rate compared to teriflunomide.[2]

Society and culture

Names

Ublituximab is the international nonproprietary name (INN).[5]
