Kodiak Sciences Completed Enrollment in BEACON Phase 3 Clinical Trial of KSI-301 in Patients with Retinal Vein Occlusion

Kodiak Sciences Inc. (NASDAQ:KOD), a biopharmaceutical company committed to researching, developing and commercializing transformative therapeutics to treat high prevalence retinal diseases, today announced that it has completed enrollment in its BEACON Phase 3 clinical trial of KSI-301, Kodiak's anti-VEGF antibody biopolymer conjugate, in patients with macular edema due to retinal vein occlusion ("RVO").

"We are very pleased to have completed enrollment in BEACON, and we look forward to the six-month primary endpoint data," said Jason Ehrlich, MD, PhD, Kodiak's Chief Medical and Development Officer. "Retinal vein occlusion is an important cause of vision loss, and current FDA approved anti-VEGF therapies are labeled only for monthly dosing in RVO. In BEACON, we are studying KSI-301's potential to be a longer-lasting treatment for patients. Looking to the first quarter of next year, the Kodiak clinical development team is focused on completing enrollment in our paired GLEAM and GLIMMER Phase 3 clinical studies in patients with diabetic macular edema and also delivering topline results from our DAZZLE Phase 2b/3 study in patients with wet AMD."
