Intarcia Therapeutics is an American pharmaceutical company based in Hayward, California and incorporated under the laws of Delaware.[1][2] It was founded in 1995 under the name "BioMedicines" and changed to its present name in 2004.[1] In April 2012, the company announced its intention to relocate its headquarters to the Boston-area.[6]

In 2005, the executive leadership of Intarcia was largely vested in two people, Karling Leung and James Ahlers, President/CEO/Director and Vice President/CFO/Finance & Operations Officer, respectively.[4] By 2012, Kurt Graves had replaced Karling Leung as President and CEO.[5]

As of 2012, Intarcia is engaged in development of a "potential once-a-year type 2 diabetes treatment". Referred to as ITCA-650, the therapeutic consists of exenatide delivered via its DUROS system,[7] "a drug delivery platform that stabilizes and delivers therapeutic proteins and peptides".[1]
