A New Way Forward
for Autoimmune Disease
Our Mission
Why We’re Here
We’re a biotechnology company with a big ambition: to transform the standard of care for autoimmune disease. By unlocking the innate power of natural killer (NK) cells — the immune system’s first responders — we’re working to eliminate malfunctioning B cells at the heart of some of medicine’s most devastating autoimmune conditions with the aim of alleviating suffering and delivering better health.
Patients First
Our Clinical Trial Promise
Instead of asking people with serious diseases to reconstruct their lives around our studies, drug developers should be striving to design our research around their lives. Read about what we’re doing to make clinical trial opportunities more accessible and equitable.

Boosted Killer Cells Show Promise For Autoimmune Disease
“Supercharged ‘natural killer’ cells could become a potent way to reset a disordered immune system,” according to one of the world's most prestigious scientific journals.
Our Autoimmune Targets
We are dedicated to realizing the potential of natural killer (NK) cells for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Our proprietary technology is designed to harness the inherent disease-fighting capabilities of these immune cells to act against cells that are dysfunctional, diseased or otherwise abnormal.

We’re proud to share Kimberly’s story, which is the second installment of our ongoing hashtag#autoimmune patient storytelling series on the Nkarta StoryHub: https://lnkd.in/e-ZwKFm9
Kimberly lives with hashtag#scleroderma, a disease that has altered her body and her relationship with herself. In a world that often equates worth with physical abilities, energy levels and superficial appearances, Kimberly has had to confront what it means to rebuild confidence and discover her remarkable inner strength.
At Nkarta, we had the honor of documenting Kimberly’s journey: one that brings forward the emotional reality of autoimmune disease in a way data alone cannot. Her story offers an important reminder that behind every condition is a uniquely human experience that deserves to be seen, valued and understood.
