Rituxan Hycela (rituximab/hyaluronidase human) 1400 mg and 23,400 units is used to treat specific blood cancers and autoimmune conditions. It combines rituximab, which targets CD20-positive B cells, with hyaluronidase to enhance absorption and allow subcutaneous administration. It is primarily indicated for Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. By depleting B cells, Rituxan Hycela helps in reducing disease activity, providing a convenient alternative to intravenous infusions and simplifying treatment protocols.
RITUXAN HYCELA is a combination of rituximab, a CD20-directed cytolytic antibody, and hyaluronidase human, an endoglycosidase, indicated for the treatment of adult patients with:

- Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) (1.2)
- Previously untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in combination with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone (CHOP) or other anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens
