Rituximab for kidney disease?

Rituximab is a new type of drug. It can treat kidney disease. The effect of rituximab in treating kidney disease is mainly to clear B lymphocytes with the assistance of antibodies or complements. This can help improve kidney disease to a certain extent. This rituximab reduces the recurrence rate of kidney disease. It has advantages over other immunosuppressants. The side effects of its use are also small. The disadvantage is that it may be relatively expensive.
