Don’t let the high cost of brand specialty multiple myeloma therapy stand between you and the treatment you need. We help eligible patients access Darzalex (daratumumab) for as little as $69.95 per month through the manufacturer’s Patient Assistance Program.
The Darzalex Prescription Assistance Program is a manufacturer-sponsored initiative that provides Darzalex at little or no medication cost to qualifying patients based on income and insurance status. The program is designed for multiple myeloma patients who are uninsured or underinsured, as well as Medicare beneficiaries.
Navigating the program on your own means dealing with eligibility verification, oncology-team coordination, prior-authorization documentation, infusion scheduling (or SC injection coordination for Faspro), HBV screening, and renewal deadlines.
AffordMyPrescriptions eliminates that burden. For a flat $69.95 per month, our Patient Advocates handle every step of your enrollment, from initial application through ongoing infusion-schedule coordination and annual re-certification — so you focus on your treatment, not paperwork.

Darzalex (daratumumab) is an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody used to treat multiple myeloma. It is given as an IV infusion (Darzalex) or as a subcutaneous injection (Darzalex Faspro, with hyaluronidase) — the SC form takes only 3–5 minutes vs. several hours for IV. Darzalex is approved across newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory disease in multiple combination regimens.
How Darzalex Works:
Multiple myeloma targets plasma cells in the bone marrow that express a specific protein called CD38. Darzalex is a monoclonal antibody that binds to this protein, triggering the immune system to destroy malignant cells through several pathways, including direct cell death and immunomodulatory effects. This multi-pronged approach makes it a foundational therapy for achieving deep responses across various treatment lines.
Form and use:
Darzalex is available as an intravenous infusion (Darzalex IV) or a quicker subcutaneous injection (Darzalex Faspro SC). The typical schedule starts with weekly doses for the first two months, gradually decreasing to every four weeks for maintenance. To minimize the risk of reactions, patients receive premedications such as corticosteroids, acetaminophen, and antihistamines before each administration.
Generic availability:
As of 2026, there is no FDA-approved biosimilar version of Darzalex available in the United States. While other anti-CD38 antibodies like Sarclisa are approved for certain uses, Darzalex remains a unique branded option. Other myeloma treatments, including generic immunomodulatory drugs like lenalidomide and newer BCMA-directed therapies, provide alternative paths for patient care.
Warnings:
Serious infusion reactions are a primary concern, particularly during the first dose, necessitating mandatory premedication. Patients must undergo screening for Hepatitis B due to the risk of viral reactivation and should be aware that the drug can interfere with blood-typing and lab crossmatching. It is vital to report symptoms like fever, jaundice, or persistent fatigue to your oncology team immediately.
Per-dose costs commonly run $5,000–$8,000+ for Darzalex IV; Darzalex Faspro SC is similar. Annual treatment costs commonly reach $130,000+. Through AffordMyPrescriptions, qualifying patients receive Darzalex at no medication cost — our $69.95 monthly fee covers full advocacy and program management.
Both contain the same active ingredient (daratumumab). Darzalex IV is given as a 3–7-hour IV infusion. Darzalex Faspro SC is combined with hyaluronidase enzyme to enable subcutaneous administration over 3–5 minutes — a major time savings. Both are clinically equivalent. Most patients prefer the SC form for convenience.
Darzalex (and other anti-CD38 antibodies) carry a risk of reactivating chronic or resolved hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Before starting therapy, you’ll be screened for HBV (HBsAg and anti-HBc), and if you have evidence of prior infection, you’ll typically be co-treated with an antiviral throughout therapy and for several months after.Open the cover until you hear a click. Breathe out fully (away from the inhaler). Place the mouthpiece in your mouth, close your lips around it, and inhale long and steadily. Hold your breath for 3–4 seconds. Close the cover. Rinse your mouth with water. The Ellipta tracks each dose automatically — the dose counter shows how many doses are left.
Darzalex binds to CD38 on red blood cells, which can interfere with blood-bank crossmatching tests and produce a false-positive indirect antiglobulin test. Your oncology team will alert your blood bank that you are on Darzalex so they can use special techniques (DTT-treated cells) for crossmatching if you need a transfusion.Darzalex binds to CD38 on red blood cells, which can interfere with blood-bank crossmatching tests and produce a false-positive indirect antiglobulin test.

Yes. Other options include isatuximab (Sarclisa, also anti-CD38), proteasome inhibitors (bortezomib, carfilzomib, ixazomib), immunomodulatory drugs (lenalidomide and pomalidomide are now generic), BCMA-directed therapies (Tecvayli, Talvey, Carvykti, Abecma), and CAR-T cell therapy. Whether any is a better clinical fit depends on prior treatments and tolerability.
Yes. Medicare beneficiaries can typically qualify for Darzalex Patient Assistance, especially if you face significant out-of-pocket costs under medical or pharmacy benefits. The manufacturer’s commercial copay assistance program is reserved for commercially insured patients only.
If your initial application is denied, we explore alternatives — the manufacturer’s copay assistance program if you have commercial insurance, independent foundations such as the PAN Foundation, HealthWell Foundation, International Myeloma Foundation, Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation, or Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, or asking your oncology team whether a different myeloma combination would be appropriate. If we cannot find a path, you will not be charged our service fee.
