Asher Biotherapeutics

Asher Biotherapeutics (Asher Bio) is a privately held, clinical-stage biotechnology company founded in 2019 and headquartered at 650 Gateway Blvd. in South San Francisco, California. The company develops cis-targeted immunotherapies — engineered biologics that simultaneously engage an immunomodulatory receptor and a cell-type-specific target on the same immune cell, so a cytokine is only activated on the intended cell population rather than acting indiscriminately across immune subsets. Its lead candidate, etakafusp alfa (AB248), is a cis-targeted IL-2 directed at CD8+ effector T cells and is in Phase 1a/1b clinical development in cancer, alongside earlier-stage programs AB821 and AB359 and a cis-targeted cytokine augmentation program for cell therapies. Asher Bio is a therapeutics developer, not a software or platform company: it publishes no developer program, public API, SDK, or machine-readable interface.

Asher Biotherapeutics is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Biotechnology, Immunotherapy, Oncology, and Therapeutics.

Asher Biotherapeutics’ developer surface includes engineering blog and 9 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.
