In this episode, moderator Dr. Mitzi Joi Williams discusses Anti-CD20 Therapies in multiple sclerosis with Dr. Stephen Krieger, Dr. Benjamin Greenberg, and Dr. Riley Bove. Dr. Williams notes that while three anti-CD20 agents are FDA-approved for MS (ocrelizumab approved in 2017, followed by ofatumumab and ublituximab), rituximab has been used off-label for many years. Though these agents target the same molecule, they differ in meaningful ways.

In "Why Anti-CD20 Therapy Has Become a Cornerstone of MS Treatment" episode, panelists explore the anti-CD20 drug class itself — a group of B-cell depleting therapies that have become the most commonly initiated treatments for MS in the United States. Experts recount that the field initially viewed B-cell targeting as counterintuitive in what was long considered a T-cell-mediated disease. However, experience and trial data have demonstrated that depleting CD19/CD20-positive B cells produces profound downstream immunological effects that dramatically suppress MS disease activity.
