Company Overview

Vera Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing treatments for immune-mediated diseases. The company’s research is centered on therapies designed to address the underlying causes of autoimmune conditions rather than primarily managing their symptoms.

Vera’s leading product candidate is atacicept, an investigational biologic designed to inhibit two proteins involved in the survival and activity of antibody-producing immune cells, B-cell activating factor and a proliferation-inducing ligand. The company is evaluating atacicept primarily as a potential treatment for IgA nephropathy, a chronic autoimmune kidney disease, in the global Phase 3 ORIGIN clinical trial.

Vera Therapeutics is headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area and conducts development activities and clinical studies through sites in the United States and other international markets. As a clinical-stage company, Vera does not currently have an approved commercial product; its business is focused on research, clinical development and potential regulatory approval of therapies for patients with serious immune-mediated diseases.
