What KALA BIO, Inc. does.

We are a biopharmaceutical company in transition, evaluating the development of a dedicated, on-premises artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure platform for the biotechnology industry. Our current focus is leveraging our mesenchymal stem cell secretome (“MSC-S”) platform to test development of a scalable AI platform-as-a-service business to deploy secure, purpose-built AI systems directly within biotech and pharmaceutical client environments. We have historically been engaged in the research, development and commercialization of innovative therapies for rare and severe diseases of the front and back of the eye. Our lead product candidate was KPI-012, MSC-S, which we acquired from Combangio, Inc. (“Combangio”) on November 15, 2021. KPI-012 was in clinical development for the treatment of persistent corneal epithelial defects (“PCED”), a rare disease of impaired corneal healing. Based on the results of a Phase 1b clinical safety and efficacy trial of KPI-012 in patients with PCED, we submitted an investigational new drug application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), which was accepted in December 2022. In February 2023, we dosed our first patient in the United States in our CHASE (Corneal Healing After SEcretome therapy) Phase 2b clinical trial of KPI-012 for PCED (the “CHASE trial”). By September 2025, the CHASE trial did not meet its primary endpoints, and we determined to discontinue our development of KPI-012 and the MSC-S platform. We have since expanded upon our business to evaluate strategic alternatives for our legacy MSC-S assets and capitalize on the substantial intellectual property (IP), proprietary biological datasets, and research experience generated during the clinical trials by starting development of an AI platform.
