Uses
Lucatumumab (HCD122) is a fully human anti-CD40 antagonist monoclonal antibody, which blocks CD40/CD40L-mediated signaling. Lucatumumab efficiently mediates antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and clearance of tumor cells, can be used for refractory lymphomas, CLL and multiple myeloma research[1][2].
