Target Information

MOR202 is a biosimilar that targets CD38.
CD38 (NAD+ glycohydrolase) is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein that induces activation, proliferation, and differentiation of mature lymphocytes, and mediates apoptosis of myeloid and lymphoid progenitor cells.
It functions as a multi-catalytic ectoenzyme serving as ADP-ribosyl cyclase, cyclic ADP-ribose hydrolase, and possibly NAD+ glycohydrolase, or as a cell surface receptor.

Antibodies to CD38 are useful in:

• Subtyping of lymphomas and leukemias
• Detection of plasma cells (e.g., identification of myelomas)
• Marker for activated B and T cells

CD38 participates in cell adhesion, signal transduction, and calcium signaling. It is expressed at high levels in the pancreas, liver, kidney, malignant lymphoma, and neuroblastoma.
Diseases associated with CD38 dysfunction include chronic lymphocytic leukemia and Richter’s Syndrome.
