Mechanism of action

Ocrelizumab targets CD20, a surface antigen expressed on B cells, leading to B cell depletion through antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and direct induction of apoptosis. By eliminating B cells, the drug reduces the production of autoantibodies and pro-inflammatory cytokines, thereby suppressing the autoimmune response underlying multiple sclerosis and other B cell-mediated conditions.
