Trends in Nephrology: From nihilism to targeted treatment of antibody-mediated rejection. (PubMed, Nephrol Dial Transplant)
We furthermore discuss genetically engineered CD38 knock-out multitarget natural killer cells, expressing anti-B cell maturation antigen (BCMA) CAR, IL-15RF and hnCD16, administered in combination with daratumumab (anti-CD38) in this context...Likewise, we hypothesize the use of bi-specific T cell engagers such as CD19 blinatumomab or BCMA teclistamab for the treatment of AMR...In summary, anti-CD38 antibodies currently constitute the drug class with the strongest evidence for AMR treatment. To date, most CD38 antibodies have been shown to be safe, even after several years of administration in patients with multiple myeloma.
