HilleVax

HilleVax was a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing novel vaccines, most notably HIL-214, a virus-like-particle based vaccine candidate aimed at preventing moderate-to-severe acute gastroenteritis caused by norovirus infection. The company was surfaced in the API Evangelist network as a portfolio company of Lightspeed Venture Partners. Enrichment probing found no developer program, no API, no developer portal, and no public API documentation of any kind, which is expected for a clinical-stage vaccine developer rather than a technology/API producer. The company's primary domain (hillevax.com) now redirects to xoma.com (XOMA Royalty), indicating HilleVax has been acquired and wound down as an independent operating company; XOMA Royalty itself was subsequently acquired by Ligand (closed July 2026). This profile is retained as a company/identity record with no API surface.

HilleVax is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Biopharmaceutical, Vaccines, Life Sciences, and Healthcare.
