Pharmacology
Anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody; daratumumab is an IgG1k human mAb that binds CD38 on tumor cells and induces apoptosis via Fc-mediated cross-linking and immune-mediated lysis through complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), antibody dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), and antibody dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP).
Selinexor reversibly inhibits exportin 1 (XPO1), blocking nuclear export of tumor suppressor proteins and oncogenic mRNAs, causing nuclear accumulation of tumor suppressors, downregulation of oncoproteins such as c-myc and cyclin D1, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis of cancer cells.
