NCIt definition : A fully human monoclonal antibody directed against the cell surface glycoprotein CD-38
with potential antineoplastic activity. Felzartamab specifically binds to CD38 on
CD38-positive tumor cells. This may trigger antitumoral antibody-dependent cellular
cytotoxicity (ADCC) and may eventually lead to cell lysis in CD38-expressing tumor
cells. CD38, a type II transmembrane glycoprotein, is present on various immune cells
and hematologic malignancies, and its expression has been correlated with poor prognosis.;
