Isatuximab is a monoclonal antibody targeting the transmembrane receptor and ectoenzyme CD38, a protein highly expressed on hematological malignant cells, including those in multiple myeloma (MM). Isatuximab has antitumor activity via multiple biological mechanisms, including antibody-dependent cellular-mediated cytotoxicity, complement-dependent cytotoxicity, antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis, and direct induction of apoptosis without crosslinking. Isatuximab also directly inhibits CD38 ectoenzyme activity, which is implicated in many cellular functions[1][2].
An in-vitro study shows that the combination of Isatuximab with Pomalidomide results in greater direct toxicity and lysis of CD38 multiple myeloma cells by effector cells compared with Isatuximab alone[2].
