Abstract:
Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a malignant tumor derived from mature B cells. Currently, chemotherapy is still the main clinical treatment. However, some patients experience recurrence or refractory conditions after treatment. On June 15, 2023, the FDA approved the marketing of glofitamab, a CD3/CD20 bispecific monoclonal antibody, to provide the new treatment plan for patients with recurrent or refractory DLBCL after receiving 2-line or above systemic treatment. This article reviews pharmacological effects, clinical studies, safety, usage and dosage of glofitamab. Glofitamab mainly plays a therapeutic role in DLBCL by promoting the activation and proliferation of T cells,activating T cells to release tumor cell-killing proteins, and mediating the lysis of B cells. Clinical studies have shown that glofitamab has a better complete and objective response rate for recurrent or refractory DLBCL. Common adverse reactions caused by glofitamab include mild/moderate cytokine release syndrome, musculoskeletal pain, rash, fatigue, and so on,without significant drug interactions.
