In terms of efficacy and progression-free survival, the 2 arms of the study were similar. The obinutuzumab arm experienced more toxicity, such as the lowering of neutrophil and platelet counts.
It did not appear that replacing rituximab (Rituxan) with obinutuzumab provided an advantage in patients with DLBCL, Burke explains.
