Leading the March
to IBD Bispecifics
ABOUT CALDERA
Caldera is a clinical stage biotechnology company developing the first-in-class bispecific antibody CLD-423 for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and other immunologic and inflammatory diseases.
Supported by leading biotech investors Atlas Venture, LAV, venBio, Omega Funds, Wellington Management and Janus Henderson Investors.
Caldera has assembled a senior leadership team with deep experience in the discovery and development of IBD therapeutics and a proven track record of building companies through to successful exits.
Single targeted IBD therapies have hit an efficacy ceiling. Bispecifics are the next horizon of IBD treatment. CLD-423 is a clinical stage bispecific antibody targeting the clinically validated IL-23p19 and TL1A pathways. Combining these two powerful autoimmune targets in a single molecule represents the next frontier in IBD treatment.
CLD-423 is rationally designed to achieve a best-in-disease profile with optimized efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and developability.
A Phase 1 healthy volunteer trial of CLD-423 is ongoing.
