Appearance of serum sickness-like reactions during treatment with rituximab
• In a study on Sjögrens disease HACAs were formed in 4 of 8 patients, 3 of these developed SSLR (Pijpe J, Arthritis Rheum 2005)
• In children with ITP, RTX caused SSLRs in 5 out of 60 (Bennet et al. Blood 2006; Wang et al., J Pediatr 2005).
• In a study on Graves’ disease 3 of 10 patients developed SSLR (el Fassi et al.,J Endocrin Invest, 2011)

Conclusions regarding pre-existing antibodies
• exist against chimeric antibodies (IFX, RTX, CTX)
• are presumably ”heterophilic antibodies”
• apparently predict outcome of infliximab therapy in Crohn’s disease
• may cause IgG- or IgE-mediated infusion reactions
• may be induced by vaccination
