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.

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/.
