Animal Testing & Research
Since Jul 28, 2021

Bicara Therapeutics Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing bifunctional antibody therapies for cancer treatment. As part of its pharmaceutical product development and regulatory compliance process, the company conducts extensive preclinical testing, which includes animal studies. Its 2024 annual report references the completion of nonclinical animal tests as a standard component of its research pipeline. The company’s therapies, such as those targeting head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, are evaluated in preclinical models, including murine studies, to assess efficacy and safety before advancing to human clinical trials. This reliance on animal testing is integral to its business model as a drug developer seeking FDA approval.

Animal Rights

We don't invest in companies that treat animals as commodities — factory farming, animal testing, exotic skins, entertainment. This isn't a peripheral screen. It's the original premise of the firm: avoiding preventable harm to living things requires taking animal consciousness seriously, not assuming it away.

Companies appear on our exclusion list based on our investment judgment — not because they've done anything illegal. This is a difference of values and opinion, not an accusation of wrongdoing. Exclusion does not constitute a recommendation against investing in any company, and absence from the list does not constitute a recommendation to invest.

This information is provided for educational and transparency purposes only and should not be relied upon as investment advice. Data is drawn from independent watchdogs, NGOs, government registries, and Ethical Capital's ongoing research — see Research Sources for the full list.
