Daratumumab

Daratumumab, also known by the brand names Darzalex or Darzalex Faspro, is a medication used to treat certain blood cancers, such as multiple myeloma. This medication works by attaching to a specific protein called CD38, which is commonly found on the surface of these cancer cells. By doing this, Daratumumab helps your body's immune system identify and remove these cells. Understanding Daratumumab can help you better discuss this part of your treatment plan, including potential effects and what to expect during your care.
