August 12, 2021 -- Artiva Biotherapeutics plans to build a new 52,000-sq-ft facility in San Diego that will include research and process development laboratories and a multisuite, custom-built good manufacturing practices (GMP) manufacturing center.

The build-out is already underway and is anticipated to be completed in 2022. The facility will support NK and CAR-NK cell production for Artiva's pipeline development and clinical trial supply for the treatment of solid and hematological cancers, the company said.
