Fate Therapeutics is a bet on their off-the-shelf cell therapies, which are now mostly centered on FT819 for lupus nephritis. I believe FT819 has made good progress since the last time I covered the stock. They've reported broader autoimmune data and are now planning RECLAIM-LN. Unfortunately, I think their recent removal from the Russell 3000 index could be a near-term headwind for the stock price itself.

FT819 off-the-shelf CAR T-cell therapy product candidate continues to broaden patient access with 21 SLE patients now treated, including as outpatient administration in community hospitals Continued demonstration of rapid and sustained clinical improvement with favorable tolerability profile observed following treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with FT819 and less-intensive conditioning chemotherapy; a majority of evaluable patients on background glucocorticoids achieved either complete glucocorticoid discontinuation or guideline-based tapering targets FT819 demonstrated deep B-cell depletion with reconstitution of preferred less-differentiated state associated with a healthier repertoire of B cells; elimination of dominant B-cell clones in dose-dependent manner was seen while vaccination titers were maintained In preclinical studies, FT839 exhibited comprehensive elimination of activated immune cells in rheumatoid arthritis patient samples; activity accomplished while in allogeneic setting without the need for conditioning chemotherapy SAN DIEGO, June 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fate Therapeutics, Inc.
