Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody divozilimab (DIV) used as an intravenous infusion at a dose of 500 mg every 24 weeks during 100 weeks for the treatment of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), including relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and secondary progressive MS (SPMS) with relapses.
Material And Methods: The multicenter, randomized, double-blind and double-masked phase III clinical trial (CT) BCD-132-4/MIRANTIBUS (NCT05385744) included 338 adult patients with MS distributed in a 1:1 ratio into two groups: DIV 500 mg and teriflunomide (TRF) 14 mg. After screening, subjects were included in the main CT period, which consisted of two cycles of therapy over 48 weeks, then entered an additional period from weeks 49 to 100, which included three cycles of therapy.
IL12 is a proinflammatory cytokine, that has shown promising antitumor activity in humans by promoting the recruitment and activation of immune cells in tumors. However, the systemic administration of IL12 has been accompanied by considerable toxicity, prompting interest in researching alternatives to drive preferential IL12 bioactivity in the tumor. Here, we have generated XTX301, a tumor-activated IL12 linked to the human Fc protein via a protease cleavable linker that is pharmacologically inactivated by an IL12 receptor subunit beta 2 masking domain.

The study of the efficacy and safety of the use of the drug DIV was carried out for 48 weeks of therapy.
Material And Methods: The multicenter, randomized, double-blind and double-masked phase III clinical trial (CT) BCD-132-4/MIRANTIBUS included 338 adult patients with RRMS distributed in a 1:1 ratio into two groups: DIV 500 mg and TRF 14 mg.
POEMSsyndrome (polyneuropathy - P, organomegaly - O, endocrinopathy - E, M-protein - M, skin changes - S) is a paraneoplastic syndrome caused by underlying dyscrasia of plasma cells. The main criteria of the syndrome are polyradiculoneuropathy, clonal proliferation of plasma cells, sclerotic bone lesions, elevated levels of vascular endothelial growth factor and the presence of Castleman disease. Additional signs include organomegaly, endocrinopathy, characteristic skin changes, edema of the optic disc, extravascular volume overload (edema) and thrombocytosis.

To study the efficacy and safety of DIV within 24 weeks of treatment.
Material And Methods: A multicenter, randomized, double-blind and double-masked, placebo-controlled phase 2 clinical trial (CT) BCD-132-2 involved 271 adult patients with RRMS from 25 centres In Russia.
