The Final Act for Autoimmune Disease
What if autoimmune diseases could be cured with a one-time treatment? At Cabaletta Bio, we believe it is possible.
On a proven foundation of CAR T technology, we are developing innovative and highly specific engineered T cell therapies for patients with B cell-mediated autoimmune diseases, designed to provide deep, durable, and potentially curative responses. Our proprietary Cabaletta Approach to selective B cell Ablation (CABA™) platform is focused on eliminating pathogenic B cells that express autoantibodies, which cause certain autoimmune diseases, while sparing the normal B cells critical to human health. Our CAAR T cell products are designed to target only those abnormal B cells responsible for autoimmune disease – typically fewer than 1% of all B cells – while sparing healthy B cells and preserving normal immunity. We have identified over two dozen B cell-mediated autoimmune diseases where we believe our CABA™ platform may provide a biological opportunity for cure. Our lead candidate, DSG3-CAART, is being evaluated in the DesCAARTes™ trial, which is a Phase 1 study for the treatment of patients with mucosal pemphigus vulgaris (mPV). We have advanced several other high-priority targets into discovery and preclinical testing, including five announced and two unannounced programs.
