Abstract
BACKGROUND: KappaMab is a chimeric IgG1 monoclonal antibody specific for Kappa Myeloma antigen (KMA), a tumour specific cell antigen exclusively expressed on the surface of kappa restricted MM cells. Early safety and efficacy signals seen with single-agent treatment in phase I/II studies in conjunction with observations that IMiD®-treatment upregulates the KMA target and enhances effector cell cytotoxicity, provide rationale for this proof-of principal immune-oncology (IO) approach in a kappa restricted MM population.
