What Nkarta, Inc. does

In the company’s own words

Nkarta, Inc. (Nasdaq: NKTX) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing allogeneic, off-the-shelf engineered natural killer (NK) cell therapies. Its lead product candidate, NKX019, is a donor-derived CAR NK cell therapy designed to target CD19-positive B cells and is being studied for autoimmune diseases, including lupus nephritis, primary membranous nephropathy, systemic sclerosis, myositis, ANCA-associated vasculitis, systemic lupus erythematosus and myasthenia gravis. The company’s proprietary platform is designed to expand and engineer NK cells, support their persistence, and enable cryopreservation for use as a frozen, ready-to-administer product. Nkarta previously studied NKX019 in blood cancers and its NKG2D-targeted candidate NKX101 in hematologic malignancies; it has deprioritized those oncology programs to focus on autoimmune diseases. The company operates two cGMP manufacturing facilities in South San Francisco, California, and reports no operating segments. Its website is www.nkartatx.com.
