Philadelphia, PA (Hybrid)

Company Overview

Cabaletta Bio (Nasdaq: CABA) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing and launching the first curative targeted cell therapies designed specifically for patients with autoimmune diseases. The CABA™ platform encompasses two complementary strategies which aim to advance the discovery and development of engineered T cell therapies with the potential to become deep and durable, perhaps curative, treatments for a broad range of autoimmune diseases. The lead CARTA (Chimeric Antigen Receptor T cells for Autoimmunity) strategy is prioritizing the development of rese-cel, a 4-1BB-containing fully human CD19-CAR T cell investigational therapy. Rese-cel is currently being evaluated in the RESET™ (REstoring SElf-Tolerance) clinical development program spanning multiple therapeutic areas, including rheumatology, neurology and dermatology. The company recently presented final phase 1/2 data for rese-cel in myositis and expects to initiate the pivotal myositis trial this year. Cabaletta Bio’s headquarters and labs office are based in Philadelphia, PA.  For more information, please visit www.cabalettabio.com and connect with us on LinkedIn.

At Cabaletta, we are driven by the shared mission of developing cures, where a patient’s own cells are used to fight disease. We are building a culture grounded in the knowledge that successful cures can be achieved for patients if every member of the Cabaletta is focused on the success of the team. To nurture this, we make an active commitment to the well-being and continuous growth of each employee who joins the team. In this way, we are not only working to improve the lives of patients, but of everyone involved.  And we’re proud that for 3 years in a row, we’ve been nationally recognized by Great Place to Work and Fortune as one of the Top 10 Best Small/Medium Workplaces in Biopharma!
