Vor Bio - Transforming Autoimmune Disease
Vor Bio is a clinical-stage biotechnology company transforming the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Our goal is to bring life-changing therapies to patients worldwide who are living with serious autoantibody-driven conditions. This dual-target mechanism reduces autoreactive B cells and autoantibody production, key drivers of autoimmune pathology.
We are advancing Telitacicept, a novel, dual-target recombinant fusion protein that inhibits both BLyS (BAFF) and APRIL—two key cytokines involved in B cell survival and autoantibody production. In a Phase 3 clinical trial in generalized myasthenia gravis in China, Telitacicept demonstrated a 4.8-point improvement in MG-ADL (Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living scale) vs. placebo at 24 weeks, the primary endpoint of the trial.
Telitacicept is approved in China for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG). A global Phase 3 clinical trial in gMG is currently underway across the United States, Europe, and South America to support potential approval in the United States and Europe.
