About Vunthera

Vunthera is a private, preclinical-stage biotech founded in 2020, targeting the significant unmet medical need of CMV reactivation. The company's innovative strategy involves a therapeutic antibody that flags latently CMV-infected monocytes and stem cells, enabling the patient's own immune system to eliminate this reservoir. This approach has demonstrated promising ex vivo proof-of-concept and aims to enter clinical testing in transplant patients. If successful, Vunthera's therapy could transform the management of CMV by moving from suppressing reactivation to preventing it entirely.
