Despite new treatments and protocols, including high-dose chemotherapy associated with autologous stem cell transplantation, the prognosis of MM patients is still poor. α-radioimmunotherapy (α-RIT) represents an attractive treatment strategy because of the high-linear-energy transfer and short pathlength of α-radiation in tissues, resulting in high tumor cell killing and low toxicity to surrounding tissues. In this study, we investigated the potential of α-RIT with <sup>212</sup>Pb-daratumumab (anti-hCD38), in both in vitro and in vivo models, as well as an antimouse CD38 antibody using in vivo models. <b>Methods:</b> Inhibition of cell proliferation after incubation of the RPMI8226 cell line with an increasing activity (0.185-3.7 kBq/mL) of <sup>212</sup>Pb-isotypic control or <sup>212</sup>Pb-daratumumab was evaluated. Biodistribution was performed in vivo by SPECT/CT imaging and after death. Dose-range-finding and acute toxicity studies were conducted. Because daratumumab does not bind the murine CD38, biodistribution and dose-range finding were also determined using an antimurine CD38 antibody. To evaluate the in vivo efficacy of <sup>212</sup>Pb-daratumumab, mice were engrafted subcutaneously with 5 × 10<sup>6</sup> RPMI8226 cells. Mice were treated 13 d after engraftment with an intravenous injection of <sup>212</sup>Pb-daratumumab or control solution.

Biodistribution studies showed a specific tumoral accumulation of daratumumab. No toxicity was observed with <sup>212</sup>Pb-daratumumab up to 370 kBq because of lack of cross-reactivity.

To remain within realistically safe treatment activities for efficacy studies, mice were treated with 185 kBq or 277.5 kBq of <sup>212</sup>Pb-daratumumab.
