Daratumumab is a monoclonal antibody that targets CD38. It has an anti-tumor action on the myeloma cell and an immunomodulatory action. For relapsing and/or refractory myeloma patients, daratumumab is effective both alone and in combination and significantly improves progression-free survival. Daratumumab has been approved in 2016 in France for treatment of relapses or refractory multiple myeloma.
