It is a monoclonal antibody and it specifically targets the CD-20 antigen so it only kills off part of your immune system so does not have as many bad side effects as other drug therapies (such as what I am now on). It is used to treat some kinds of non-Hodgkins lymphoma and has been used with some success on Linear iga. It is given as 3 infusions which I think are given a week apart.
That's really all I know about it Itchy and it is technical knowledge, I would really like to find out the experiences of someone who has actually been treated with it. My derm says it is a very safe treatment and if it works I will get a few years of complete remission.
