Corporate presentation summary
16 Mar, 2026Strategic pipeline and clinical progress
Advancing three Phase 3 retina programs with topline data readouts expected in 2026–2027, targeting wet AMD, diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, and MESI.
Tarcocimab and KSI-501 leverage the ABC® platform for high immediacy and industry-leading durability, with BLA filings planned for 2026–2027.
KSI-101, a dual IL-6/VEGF inhibitor, demonstrated robust Phase 1b APEX results in MESI, with pivotal PEAK and PINNACLE studies underway.
Commercial opportunity exceeds 150,000 initial addressable MESI patients in the US, with significant headroom for growth.
Proprietary, wholly owned assets provide flexibility in commercialization and risk diversification.
Market landscape and unmet needs
The $15+ billion anti-VEGF market remains open for therapies combining high immediacy and durability, as current biologics fall short in real-world durability.
Existing treatments for MESI, primarily steroids, carry significant safety risks and limited efficacy, highlighting a need for safer, potent, locally administered therapies.
KSI-101 targets a population often contraindicated for steroids or refractory to current treatments, aiming to simplify the patient journey and improve outcomes.
Most MESI patients are managed by general ophthalmologists and retinal specialists, with complex cases referred to uveitis specialists.
Technology and manufacturing
The ABC® platform enables modular, multi-functional therapies with tailored drug release, supporting both ophthalmic and systemic indications.
Tarcocimab and KSI-501 combine unconjugated and conjugated proteins for rapid disease control and extended dosing intervals.
Commercial-scale manufacturing facility (Ursus) is operational, supporting large-scale production and BLA-facing validation batches.
