Announcement
Jade Biosciences, Inc. announced its 2026 strategic priorities, including anticipated milestones ahead of the 44th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, taking place January 12–15, 2026, in San Francisco, California.
AI Summary
Jade Biosciences outlined its 2026 strategic priorities and expected milestones ahead of the 44th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference (January 12–15, 2026). The company said 2026 will focus on advancing multiple clinical programs and moving lead candidate JADE101 toward later‑stage development while continuing discovery work on antibody candidates.
Key clinical near‑term milestones include biomarker‑rich interim Phase 1 data for JADE101 in healthy volunteers in the first half of 2026 to guide dose and interval selection, and initiation of a Phase 2 trial in IgA nephropathy mid‑2026 with preliminary data expected in 2027. JADE201, an extended‑half‑life anti‑BAFF‑R antibody, is planned to enter a first‑in‑human rheumatoid arthritis study in Q2 2026 with interim data in 2027. A third candidate, JADE301, is in preclinical testing and is expected to begin Phase 1 in the first half of 2027.
Jade reported about $336 million in cash and investments as of December 31, 2025, projecting runway into the first half of 2028. The company will present at the J.P. Morgan conference on January 15, 2026 at 11:15 a.m. PT, with a webcast available on its website.

Announcement
Jade Biosciences, Inc. today presented two posters for JADE101, its investigational anti-A PRoliferation-Inducing Ligand (APRIL) monoclonal antibody for the treatment of immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), at the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2025.
AI Summary
Jade Biosciences presented two posters at ASN Kidney Week 2025 on JADE101, an investigational anti-APRIL monoclonal antibody for immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). JADE101 is designed to selectively block APRIL, a driver of pathogenic IgA, and is engineered for extended half-life and patient-friendly subcutaneous dosing.
Preclinical data in non-human primates showed a favorable safety profile: JADE101 was well tolerated up to the NOAEL, had no off-target binding across >6,000 human proteins, no tissue cross-reactivity, no cytokine release, and did not broadly suppress immune cells. Treatment produced reversible reductions in immunoglobulins (IgA ~55–68%, IgM ~62–75%, IgG ~35–48%) while preserving antibody responses to a test vaccine.
Translational modeling found APRIL binding affinity predicts in vivo IgA lowering and that pharmacokinetic and biomarker responses were consistent between healthy volunteers and IgAN patients (IgA kinetics r=0.93; Gd-IgA1 vs total IgA r=0.96). Early IgA reduction correlated with later proteinuria improvement (r=0.89).
A Phase 1 single-ascending-dose trial in healthy volunteers is ongoing, with interim biomarker data expected in H1 2026 to guide dose and dosing interval for patient studies. Jade anticipates potential for infrequent subcutaneous dosing.

Announcement
Jade Biosciences, Inc. announced that it will present new preclinical safety and translational data for JADE101, its lead investigational candidate for immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), during two poster sessions at the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2025, taking place November 5–9 in Houston, Texas.
AI Summary
Jade Biosciences will present new preclinical safety and translational data for JADE101 at ASN Kidney Week 2025, November 5–9 in Houston, Texas. Two posters will share insights into the half-life-extended anti-APRIL monoclonal antibody designed to treat immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN).
JADE101 selectively blocks A PRoliferation-Inducing Ligand (APRIL) to reduce abnormal IgA levels that can lead to kidney failure. Engineered for ultra-high binding affinity and extended serum half-life, JADE101 supports infrequent subcutaneous dosing. Animal studies showed potent, sustained IgA suppression and predictable pharmacokinetics without high-molecular-weight immune complexes.
The first poster, “Nonclinical Safety Profile of JADE101,” will be presented by Ashley McCord on November 8 (10:00 AM–12:00 PM CT; SA-PO0255). The second, “Translational Framework to Predict Clinical Responses to APRIL Blockade,” will be presented by Brandon Gufford (SA-PO0272). A Phase 1 healthy volunteer trial is underway, with interim data expected in the first half of 2026.

Announcement
Jade Biosciences, Inc announced a detailed preclinical characterization of JADE101, its anti-A Proliferation-Inducing Ligand (APRIL) monoclonal antibody, in development for IgA nephropathy (IgAN), a chronic autoimmune kidney disease.
AI Summary
Jade Biosciences, Inc. announced detailed preclinical results for its JADE101, an anti-APRIL monoclonal antibody in development for treating IgA nephropathy, a chronic autoimmune kidney disease. The study showed that JADE101 binds to APRIL with femtomolar affinity, which could allow it to completely suppress APRIL even at low drug levels. In non-human primates, a single dose resulted in a 27-day half-life and produced deep, sustained reductions in IgA for over 100 days. These findings suggest that JADE101 could support subcutaneous dosing every eight weeks or longer, making the treatment more convenient for patients. The promising preclinical profile sets the stage for a first-in-human trial scheduled for the second half of 2025, with biomarker-rich interim data expected in the first half of 2026 to help guide dose and schedule decisions.
