CD38 antibodies were first evaluated in extensively pretreated patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Currently, there are 3 CD38 antibody–based regimens approved for the treatment of both transplant-eligible (daratumumab plus bortezomib-thalidomide-dexamethasone [D-VTd]) and transplant-ineligible (daratumumab plus lenalidomide-dexamethasone [D-Rd] or daratumumab plus bortezomib-melphalan-prednisone [D-VMP]) patients with newly diagnosed MM (NDMM). The phase 3 studies that evaluated these regimens uniformly showed that the addition of daratumumab to backbone regimens improved the depth of response, which translated into improved progression-free survival and also overall survival in 2 of the studies. Importantly, elderly patients age 75 years or older benefit from these regimens, indicating that these regimens have an acceptable safety profile. Although the number of patients with high-risk cytogenetics was relatively small, these patients also experienced benefit from the addition of daratumumab to standard-of-care regimens, but poor risk conferred by the cytogenetic aberrations is not completely abrogated. Altogether, daratumumab-based regimens have high anti-MM activity and a favorable toxicity profile and therefore represent new standards of care for patients with NDMM.

Evidence-Based Minireview: Should all newly diagnosed MM patients receive CD38 antibody–based treatment?
