Investor presentation summary
14 Jul, 2026Strategic vision and company overview
Focused on developing novel therapies for thyroid autoimmune diseases, specifically Graves' Disease (GD) and thyroid eye disease (TED).
Founded in 2025, launching as a clinical-stage company with a reverse merger expected to close in July 2026 and subsequent NASDAQ listing.
Raised $200M to date, providing a cash runway into 2028.
In-licensed exclusive rights to YB-101 for GD and TED outside greater China from GenSci.
Unmet medical need and market opportunity
GD and TED are associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and inadequate current treatments.
Existing therapies have substantial side effects, low remission rates, and high relapse or complication risks.
Large addressable market: $2B+ annual US market for both GD and TED, with ~1M prevalent GD patients on anti-thyroid drugs.
40% of GD patients develop TED, and 20-30% develop moderate to severe TED.
YB-101: Mechanism, differentiation, and clinical promise
YB-101 is a first-in-class anti-TSHR antibody designed to disrupt the central mechanism of GD and TED.
Offers rapid, specific TSHR blockade, potentially improving efficacy and safety over current standards.
Demonstrated favorable safety and rapid, dose-dependent clinical responses in Phase 1 SAD for TED in China.
No immunosuppression, hearing impairment, or hyperglycemia observed; convenient subcutaneous dosing every 8 weeks.
Intellectual property coverage extends through at least 2046.
