Comment: Felzartamab (MOR03087; MOR202) is a humanized anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody. It has immunosuppressive action and induces Fc-effector function. Anti-CD38 monoclonals are intended to target long-lived CD38+ autoantibody-secreting plasma cells and plasmablasts that persist in inflamed tissue and bone marrow niches, to mediate immunosuppression.
