The pharmacokinetics of ocrelizumab was described with pharmacokinetic parameters typical for an immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody, with body weight as the main covariate. The pharmacokinetics and B-cell depletion in blood were comparable across the RMS and PPMS trials, and the extent of blood B-cell depletion was greater with higher exposure.
