For multiple patients with blood cancers who would normally use Rituxan, the Food and Drug Administration has approved the biosimilar Riabni based off highly similar clinical evidence between the two drugs, potentially lowering costs for patients.

The benefit observed in patients with Waldenstrom’s macroglobulinemia treated with Imbruvica (ibrutinib) plus Rituxan (rituximab), compared with placebo and Rituxan, focused on survival and response to the treatment, both of which occurred despite prior treatment and genotypes.
