Cabaletta Bio (NASDAQ: CABA) unveils new rese-cel autoimmune and PC-free data
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Cabaletta Bio is highlighting new clinical and manufacturing data for its investigational CD19 CAR T therapy rese-cel in autoimmune diseases. In pemphigus vulgaris, four patients received the lowest preconditioning-free dose; all completed at least 24 weeks of follow-up.
All four showed early clinical improvement, and two maintained compelling, drug-free responses through six months. Three of four had complete peripheral B cell depletion, with antibody levels against DSG3 and DSG1 decreasing alongside disease activity scores.
The company also reports that the first two clinical rese-cel doses manufactured on Cellares’ fully automated Cell Shuttle met all release specifications, with key quality metrics and early pharmacology profiles consistent with prior manual manufacturing runs. Cabaletta plans to test higher PC-free doses and expand across lupus and other autoimmune indications during 2026.
Positive
- None.
Negative
- None.
Insights
Early rese-cel data show encouraging efficacy and safety, but remain very small-scale.
Cabaletta reports that at the lowest preconditioning-free dose of rese-cel, two of four pemphigus vulgaris patients achieved compelling, drug-free clinical responses through six months, with all four improving from baseline. Three patients had complete peripheral B cell depletion and favorable biomarker shifts.
Safety in this small cohort was manageable, with no dose-limiting toxicities, no neurotoxicity, and only one case of grade 1 cytokine release syndrome. Separately, the first two clinical lots produced on Cellares’ automated Cell Shuttle met specifications and showed pharmacology similar to earlier clinical product, supporting future scalability.
These findings support Cabaletta’s plan to escalate preconditioning-free dosing and broaden rese-cel testing across lupus and other autoimmune diseases, with additional pemphigus and SLE data expected in 1H26 and 2H26. The true impact will depend on larger datasets and durability in subsequent trials.

On May 14, 2026, the Company posted to the “Investors & Media” section of the Company’s website at www.cabalettabio.com an updated corporate presentation (the “Corporate Presentation”). A copy of the Corporate Presentation is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
On May 14, 2026, the Company issued the Press Release presenting its preconditioning-free clinical data and automated manufacturing translational data for rese-cel, which are being presented in poster presentations at the American Society of Gene & Cell Therapy (“ASGCT”) 2026 Annual Meeting. Highlights of the rese-cel clinical and translational data being presented at the ASGCT 2026 Annual Meeting include:
Lowest Dose Data from RESET-PV Reinforces PC-free Opportunity to Broaden Patient Reach Across Autoimmune Diseases
Cabaletta is presenting clinical and translational data from the first four patients with pemphigus vulgaris treated at the lowest dose of rese-cel without preconditioning. As of April 2, 2026, all four patients had been dosed and completed at least 24 weeks of follow-up. The PDAI Total Activity ("PDAI") scores ranged from 22 to 83 at baseline. Key findings from the poster include:
The favorable safety observations in all patients and unanticipated, compelling drug-free clinical responses in two of the four patients treated at the lowest PC-free rese-cel dose are supportive of the plan to continue to explore higher doses of PC-free rese-cel in PV and other autoimmune diseases. PC-free rese-cel data at higher doses from RESET-PV are anticipated in 2H26 and initial data at the lowest rese-cel dose from RESET-SLE™ are expected in 1H26 at the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology 2026 Congress, being held from June 3-6, 2026, in London, UK.
Automated Manufacturing Replicates Process Consistency and Early Clinical Experience from the First Two Autoimmune Patients to Support Future Scalable Supply with Minimal Capital Investment
Cabaletta is presenting data highlighting the initial manufacturing and translational data from the first two autoimmune patients dosed with rese-cel manufactured using the automated Cellares Cell Shuttle platform, representing the first use of the Cell Shuttle in any clinical program. As of May 6, 2026, both patients had been dosed and completed at least 4 weeks of follow-up. Key findings from the poster include:
Cabaletta believes these initial findings support the continued advancement of the Cell Shuttle automated manufacturing platform as a commercial supplier for rese-cel, if approved, to improve reproducibility and scale over time while maintaining product attributes within established clinical ranges.

Cabaletta Bio Presents Preconditioning-free Clinical Data and Automated Manufacturing Translational Data for
Rese-cel at ASGCT 2026 Annual Meeting
A single infusion of the lowest dose of rese-cel administered without preconditioning, after discontinuation of all immunomodulators, demonstrated compelling drug-free responses for 6 months in 2 of 4 refractory patients; next dose cohort actively enrolling
Translational data from the first two patients dosed with rese-cel manufactured on the automated Cell Shuttle™ platform showed pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data consistent with other patients dosed in the RESET™ clinical program
ASGCT 2026 presentations reinforce Cabaletta’s focus on optimizing the patient and physician experience through simplified treatment regimens and scalable reliable manufacturing
PHILADELPHIA, May 14, 2026 -- Cabaletta Bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: CABA), a late-stage clinical biotechnology company focused on developing and launching targeted cell therapies designed specifically for patients with autoimmune diseases, today announced new clinical and translational data from the first four patients in the lowest dose cohort in RESET-PV® evaluating preconditioning-free (PC-free) rese-cel (resecabtagene autoleucel) and initial manufacturing and translational data from the first two autoimmune patients treated with rese-cel manufactured using the automated Cellares Cell Shuttle platform in the RESET clinical development program. These data are being presented in separate poster presentations today at the American Society of Gene & Cell Therapy (ASGCT) 2026 Annual Meeting in Boston, MA.
“Based on our view that a higher rese-cel dose would be required in the absence of preconditioning, it is encouraging that at the lowest PC-free dose, which is the same dose used across the RESET program with preconditioning, 50% of the patients demonstrated compelling and drug-free responses through 6 months of follow-up. PC-free rese-cel has the potential to substantially expand access for patients in current CAR T centers on an outpatient basis as well as in community-based infusion centers,” said David J. Chang, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Cabaletta. “In addition, the initial automated manufacturing and translational data from patients in the RESET clinical program being presented today move us even closer to realizing a more scalable and reproducible commercial product supply for rese-cel, if approved. We believe this is central to being able to meet the potential demand for rese-cel from thousands of patients living with autoimmune diseases.”
Lowest Dose Data from RESET-PV Reinforces PC-free Opportunity to Broaden Patient Reach Across Autoimmune Diseases
Cabaletta is presenting clinical and translational data from the first four patients with pemphigus vulgaris treated at the lowest dose of rese-cel without preconditioning. As of April 2, 2026, all four patients had been dosed and completed at least 24 weeks of follow-up. The PDAI Total Activity (PDAI) scores ranged from 22 to 83 at baseline.

About rese-cel
Rese-cel (resecabtagene autoleucel) is an investigational, autologous CAR T cell therapy engineered with a fully human CD19 binder and a 4-1BB co-stimulatory domain, designed specifically for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Administered as a single, weight-based infusion, rese-cel has demonstrated the ability to transiently, reliably and deeply deplete CD19-positive cells, with the goal of resetting the immune system and achieving durable clinical responses without the need for chronic therapy. Cabaletta is evaluating rese-cel in the RESET™ (REstoring SElf-Tolerance) clinical development program, which includes multiple ongoing company-sponsored trials across a broad range of autoimmune diseases in rheumatology, neurology and dermatology.
