Did you know, over 16 million adults in the U.S. are affected by #AtopicDermatitis, and nearly half of moderate-to-severe cases fail to achieve long-term control with current treatments? At Artax, we’re taking a new approach. Our #NckModulators are designed to target the underlying T-cell dysregulation that drives chronic inflammation to deliver durable relief without immunosuppression.

This #UVSafetyAwarenessMonth, we’re spotlighting the importance of protecting your skin from harmful #UV rays—one of the leading causes of skin cancer. As highlighted by the World Health Organization, simple habits like applying SPF, seeking shade, and wearing protective clothing can make a big difference. We're advancing a new class of therapies, #NckModulators, that have the potential to restore the immune balance by enabling immunomodulation without immunosuppression across many dermatologic conditions. As we spotlight UV Safety Month, we're proud to support both external protection and internal innovation for healthier skin and stronger immunity.

We want to extend a warm congratulations to our founder, Balbino Alarcon, PhD, on being a co-recipient of the prestigious 19th Francisco Cobos Foundation Award by CSIC! Dr. Alarcón was recognized for his pioneering work elucidating foundational T-cell receptor (TCR) biology including its interaction with the adaptor protein Nck. This breakthrough has laid the foundation for the development of our first-in-class Nck inhibitors to modulate TCR activation and potentially address a broad range of #AutoimmuneDiseases. We are incredibly thankful for Dr. Alarcón's leadership and vision as we continue advancing our mission to deliver transformative therapies!
