Director, Medical Affairs

Our 3 Core Values

  • Intelligence
  • Integrity
  • Initiative


We are seeking a savvy strategic and scientific leader to build and lead Medical Affairs at Immix Biopharma at a pivotal moment as we advance our lead asset, NXC-201, toward potential approval in relapsed/refractory AL amyloidosis.


Immix Biopharma is developing NXC-201, a differentiated BCMA-directed CAR-T therapy with Breakthrough Therapy designation, for FDA approval based on a single-arm, registrational Phase 1/2 study. We are moving with urgency – from end of study in 2026 to potential launch in 2027 – to transformative treatment for these patients with significant unmet need.


This is a rare opportunity to build Medical Affairs from the ground up. The Director, Medical Affairs will define the vision, strategy, and execution of a high-impact, scientifically rigorous organization that will shape how our data are understood, how our therapy is used appropriately in clinical practice, and how we engage with the broader medical and scientific community. This role will also be responsible for establishing a strong partnership with Commercial by developing shared strategic imperatives and collaborating on launch readiness.


This role requires more than scientific excellence. It requires a leader who can operate with strategic clarity in the face of uncertainty, influence across functions without direct authority, and translate complex data into a compelling and credible scientific narrative for diverse stakeholders.

About Immix Biopharma

Immix Biopharma is committed to harnessing the immune system through innovative cell therapies and other modalities to deliver widely accessible cures. Patients are waiting.


Our lead asset, NXC-201, is a differentiated BCMA-directed CAR-T therapy being developed for relapsed/refractory AL amyloidosis—an area of critical unmet need. We are advancing rapidly toward potential approval and launch, with the goal of bringing a transformative therapy to patients.


  • We are guided by three core values: Intelligence, Integrity, and Initiative. We are building a team of thoughtful, driven individuals who are motivated by the opportunity to make a meaningful impact for patients and to help define the future of our company.


Immix Biopharma, Inc. (ImmixBio) (Nasdaq: IMMX) is the global leader in relapsed/refractory AL Amyloidosis. AL Amyloidosis is a devastating disease where the immune system, that’s supposed to protect, instead produces toxic light chains, clogging up the heart, kidney and liver, causing organ failure and death. Our lead candidate is sterically-optimized BCMA-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy NXC-201 with a “digital filter” that is designed to filter out non-specific activation. NXC-201 teaches the immune system to recognize and eliminate the source of the toxic light chains. NXC-201 is being evaluated in the U.S. multi-center study for relapsed/refractory AL Amyloidosis NEXICART-2 (NCT06097832), with a registrational design. NXC-201 has been awarded Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD) and Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) by the US FDA and Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) by FDA and in the EU by the EMA.
