Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) includes a range of abnormal lymphoid proliferation following solid organ or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), often associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Treatment generally incudes rituximab, a chimeric monoclonal antibody directed against CD20. Here we present a 56-year-old woman with EBV-associated PTLD following allogeneic HSCT who was intolerant of rituximab. The patient was instead treated with ofatumumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody directed against CD20, with significant response in EBV viral load and lymphadenopathy. Ofatumumab could represent an important treatment option for patients unable to tolerate rituximab.
