Artiva Biotherapeutics Inc

Artiva Biotherapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing natural killer (NK) cell-based therapies for patients suffering from devastating autoimmune diseases and cancers. The Company's product candidates are derived from donor cells (allogeneic) rather than a patient's own cells (autologous) and are pre-manufactured, stored frozen and ready to ship to a patient's treatment location. Its lead product candidate, AlloNK, is being evaluated in combination with B-cell targeted monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) in patients with autoimmune diseases and cancers, such as LN, RA, PV, the ANCA-associated vasculitis subtypes GPA/MPA, SLE and B-NHL. AlloNK is a non-genetically modified, cryopreserved NK cell therapy being evaluated in combination with B-cell targeted mAbs in an ongoing Phase I/Ib trial in class III or IV lupus nephritis (LN) and a basket investigator-initiated trial (IIT) in multiple autoimmune indications.
