On May 1, 2020, Janssen Pharma, a Johnson & Johnson company, announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved DARZALEX FASPRO (daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj), a new subcutaneous formulation of daratumumab. DARZALEX FASPRO was approved in four regimens across five indications in multiple myeloma patients, including newly diagnosed, transplant-ineligible patients as well as relapsed or refractory patients.

As a fixed-dose formulation, DARZALEX FASPRO can be administered over approximately three to five minutes, significantly less time than DARZALEX, which is given intravenously over hours.
