Tyra Biosciences (NASDAQ: TYRA) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing small-molecule therapies targeting fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) dysregulation. The company has generated no revenue as of December 31, 2025, and finances operations through equity offerings, debt financings, and potential future collaborations or licensing arrangements. Its lead program, oral dabogratinib, targets achondroplasia (ACH) and hypochondroplasia (HCH), rare skeletal dysplasias caused by FGFR3 mutations. In August 2025, the first child was dosed in BEACH301, a global Phase 2 clinical trial of oral dabogratinib in children ages 3 to 10 with ACH. The company holds orphan drug designations and is pursuing regulatory approvals in both the U.S. and EU. Tyra is headquartered in Carlsbad, California, where it leases approximately 13,065 square feet of laboratory and office space as of the 10-K filed March 2, 2026. The company expects its cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of December 31, 2025 to fund operations through at least 2027.
