description: 'Garuda Therapeutics was a clinical-stage biotechnology company founded in 2021 by
  Sean Morrison and David Scadden and headquartered in Massachusetts (Cambridge, later Natick),
  developing off-the-shelf, self-renewing, HLA-compatible, transgene-free hematopoietic (blood)
  stem cell therapies intended to remove the dependency on a matched donor or on patient cells in
  the treatment of hematologic malignancies, sickle cell disease, beta-thalassemia and bone marrow
  failure. It raised roughly $184M across a $72M Series A and a $50M Series A-1 closed in March
  2025, backed by OrbiMed Advisors, Northpond Ventures, Cormorant Asset Management and Kyowa Kirin.
  It is a therapeutics developer, not a software company: it never published an API, SDK, developer
  portal or machine-readable specification, and its website garudatx.com no longer serves company
  content and now resolves to a GoDaddy parking lander.'

  note: >-
    Deliberately NOT wired as a Website pointer. garudatx.com returns a 114-byte HTML stub that
    redirects to /lander, the GoDaddy parking single-page app. The Wayback Machine shows the real
    company site through 2025-01-22, Australian online-casino SEO spam at the 2025-10-09 snapshot,
    and a ~538-byte holding page from 2026-01-20 onward. garudatherapeutics.com 301s to a
    HugeDomains for-sale listing. The only live URL for this company is a trading-venue listing,
    which is a venue page and not a company web presence (roadmap#56), so it is typed
    SecondaryMarketListing rather than Website.

    Garuda Therapeutics is a clinical-stage cell-therapy developer that never had a developer
    surface, and its domain garudatx.com has since left its control — it served Australian
    online-casino SEO spam in October 2025 and now returns a 114-byte stub redirecting to a GoDaddy
    parking lander, while garudatherapeutics.com 301s to a HugeDomains for-sale page.
