People & Culture Generalist
Artiva Biotherapeutics, San Diego, CA
About Artiva:
Artiva is clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing natural killer (NK) cell-based therapies for patients suffering from devastating autoimmune diseases and cancers.
Artiva's lead product candidate, AlloNK, is a non-genetically modified, off-the-shelf, allogeneic, cryopreserved NK cell therapy designed to enhance the antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) effect of mAbs to drive B-cell depletion and to be administered in the community setting. Unlike CAR-T and any genetically modified cell therapy, AlloNK is a non-genetically modified NK cell therapy candidate and has not shown any secondary malignancies in our clinical trials, which is a benefit in an autoimmunity setting. Using the company's proprietary cell therapy manufacturing platform, Artiva can generate thousands of doses of cryopreserved, infusion-ready AlloNK cells from a single cord blood unit. The FDA has granted Fast Track designation to AlloNK in combination with rituximab or obinutuzumab for the treatment of class III or IV lupus nephritis, and AlloNK in combination with rituximab for the treatment of relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma of B-cell origin (B-NHL).
AlloNK, is currently being evaluated in combination with B-cell targeted mAbs in
patients with autoimmune diseases and cancers, such as lupus nephritis, SLE, rheumatoid arthritis, pemphigus vulgaris, the ANCA-associated vasculitis subtypes GPA/MPA, and B-NHL. In addition, we are also pursuing AlloNK and our CAR-NK product candidates in multiple indications through collaborator-funded trials. Artiva's cell therapy manufacturing platform incorporates cell expansion and activation technology developed by Artiva's strategic partner, GC Cell Corporation, a member of the GC family of companies, a leading healthcare company in Korea.
Artiva is headquartered in San Diego and backed by leading venture investors including 5AM Ventures, RA Capital Management and venBio Partners.
