PATIENT VOICES
Share Your Autoimmune Story
Why should you share your story with us?
At Nkarta, we’re working on a new experimental approach to target the malfunctioning B cells driving inflammation and disease progression in myositis and scleroderma.
At our company, patients aren’t customers in a transaction. They’re who we are and why we exist. Our CEO has lived with autoimmune disease since childhood, and many other team members understand this fight firsthand as autoimmune patients or caregivers. This perspective shapes everything we do.
To put it another way: Our ultimate success depends on understanding your journey. We believe in sharing real stories from real people like you. Every autoimmune journey looks different and deserves to be heard. When you share yours, you’re informing how innovative companies like ours pursue and measure the outcomes that matter most to patients.
Share Your Story
We would love to hear about your journey. Please tell us more about yourself below and be sure to fill out the disclaimer so someone from our team can reach out to you.
Submitting a story does not guarantee publication. Nkarta will obtain separate written permission before publishing your story or identifying information. If you are participating in a clinical trial, please report safety concerns to your study site rather than through this form.

Inflammation sapped her muscle strength, her energy, her mobility, even her sense of self. Yet somehow, Melissa found the courage and resolve to weather the storm, seek out support and slowly rebuild. (Read her full story here.)
