The use of tafasitamab in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

Abstract: Patients who relapse or are refractory after first-line therapy for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) frequently have poor prognoses, especially when they are not candidates for autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). Tafasitamab is a humanized monoclonal anti-CD19 antibody that has recently been approved by the FDA in combination with lenalidomide for the treatment of relapsed/refractory (R/R) DLBCL in patients who are not eligible for ASCT. Tafasitamab has an Fc region which has been modified to have an … Show more

“…Recentemente, três mAb (Figura 2b) passaram a fazer parte do arsenal terapêutico dessa doença e, dos três, apenas o polatuzumabe já tem aprovação para uso no Brasil, na sua forma conjugada com um agente antimitótico (monometil auristatina E -MMAE) 28 . Por sua vez, os fármacos tafasitamabe e loncastuximabe têm como alvo o CD-19, que é comumente superexpresso em células B tumorais, e o primeiro ativa a CCDA 29 e o segundo libera seu agente de intercalação de DNA (tesirine, SG3199) para induzir a morte da célula tumoral 30 .…”

“…CD19 is universally expressed in all cases of WM, making it a viable target for immunological therapies such as TAF [ 9 ]. The rationale for combining TAF/LEN is based on the stimulation and proliferation of NK cells by lenalidomide, coupled with the amplification of NK-cell-mediated, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity by tafasitamab [ 10 ]. A simplified potential mechanism of action in B-cells for TAF/LEN is shown in Figure 2 .…”
