Carisma Therapeutics Inc. is a biotechnology company focused on macrophage and monocyte engineering to develop therapies for liver fibrosis and cancer. Its proprietary CAR-M platform uses chimeric antigen receptors to redirect macrophages against tumor-associated antigens. Key candidates include CT-2401 (liver fibrosis, mRNA/LNP approach) and CT-1119 (mesothelin-positive solid tumors). Following strategic reviews in 2024-2025, the company paused R&D and is exploring strategic alternatives including asset sales, partnerships, or a company merger.
