PART I [Business](index=5&type=section&id=Item%201.%20Business) Kodiak Sciences Inc. develops retinal disease therapies using its ABC Platform, with lead candidate KSI-301 for wet AMD and diabetic retinopathy in clinical trials - The company's most advanced product candidate is KSI-301, a biologic therapy built with its antibody biopolymer conjugate platform (ABC Platform), designed to maintain potent drug levels in ocular tissues for treating retinal vascular diseases like wet AMD and diabetic retinopathy[19](index=19&type=chunk) - The company initiated its first-in-human Phase 1a clinical study of KSI-301 in July 2018 for severe diabetic macular edema (DME), which demonstrated safety and durability of responses after a single dose[20](index=20&type=chunk) - Kodiak is currently enrolling a Phase 1b multiple-dose study of KSI-301 in patients with wet AMD, DME, and retinal vein occlusion, with plans to present data in 2019 and 2020[26](index=26&type=chunk) - The company plans to initiate a global Phase 2 pivotal study of KSI-301 in wet AMD in Q2 2019, comparing dosing intervals of up to 20 weeks against the standard 8-week regimen of EYLEA[29](index=29&type=chunk)[54](index=54&type=chunk) [Lead Product Candidate: KSI-301](index=5&type=section&id=Lead%20Product%20Candidate%3A%20KSI-301) KSI-301 is an anti-VEGF antibody biopolymer conjugate designed for enhanced durability in treating retinal diseases KSI-301 Phase 1a Single-Dose Study Results (12 Weeks) | Metric | Result (Pooled across all dose levels) | | :--- | :--- | | **Vision Improvement (Median)** | 9 eye chart letters (almost two lines) | | **Retinal Edema Improvement (Median)** | 121 microns | | **Responders** | 8 out of 9 patients | | **Safety** | No dose-limiting toxicities, drug-related adverse events, or intraocular inflammation | KSI-301 Design Feature Comparison | Feature | KSI-301 | EYLEA | Lucentis | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Molecular Weight** | 950 kDa | 115 kDa | 48 kDa | | **Molar Dose (Equivalent)** | 7x | 2x | 1x | | **Ocular PK (Equivalent)** | 4x | 1.5x | 1x | - Preclinical studies demonstrated that KSI-301 has an extended ocular tissue half-life of over 10 days in the retina, compared to published data of 2.9 days for Lucentis and 4-5 days for EYLEA[128](index=128&type=chunk) [Market Opportunity and Current Limitations](index=15&type=section&id=Market%20Opportunity%20and%20Current%20Limitations) The primary target markets for KSI-301 are wet AMD and diabetic retinopathy, with existing treatments facing limitations due to frequent injection burden - Annual worldwide sales of Lucentis and EYLEA for all indications totaled approximately **$10.5 billion** in 2018, with a substantial majority from wet AMD and DR treatment[39](index=39&type=chunk)[61](index=61&type=chunk) - Real-world studies, such as the AURA study, show a divergence between clinical trial efficacy and real-world outcomes for current anti-VEGFs, where less frequent treatment leads to diminished visual acuity improvement[41](index=41&type=chunk)[78](index=78&type=chunk) - Data from the American Academy of Ophthalmology's IRIS registry showed that in 13,859 U.S. patients with wet AMD, the average number of injections in the first year was approximately six, far below the labeled regimens for Lucentis (12/year) and EYLEA (7-8/year)[83](index=83&type=chunk) [ABC Platform and Pipeline](index=31&type=section&id=ABC%20Platform%20and%20Pipeline) The company's ABC Platform extends durability and bioavailability of retinal medicines, with KSI-501 as a dual inhibitor candidate - The ABC Platform is designed to extend the durability of soluble, injectable retinal medicines and fuel a pipeline of differentiated product candidates[144](index=144&type=chunk)[145](index=145&type=chunk) - KSI-501 is a dual inhibitor Trap-Antibody-Fusion (TAF) bioconjugate designed to target both inflammation (via anti-IL-6) and abnormal angiogenesis (via anti-VEGF)[147](index=147&type=chunk) - Preclinical studies indicate that the TAF protein of KSI-501 binds with high affinity to both VEGF and IL-6 simultaneously, suggesting it can inhibit both targets with high potency[153](index=153&type=chunk) [Competition, Manufacturing, and Commercialization](index=31&type=section&id=Competition%2C%20Manufacturing%2C%20and%20Commercialization) Kodiak faces intense competition from established therapies and relies on third-party CMOs for manufacturing, planning U.S. commercialization with partners for ex-U.S. markets - The company faces competition from established anti-VEGF drugs (Avastin, Lucentis, EYLEA) and new therapies in development, such as Novartis's brolucizumab and Allergan's abicipar[174](index=174&type=chunk)[176](index=176&type=chunk) - Kodiak relies on third-party contract manufacturers (CMOs), including Lonza AG, for the manufacture and supply of clinical materials for its product candidates[140](index=140&type=chunk)[143](index=143&type=chunk) -

A failure of KSI-301 in clinical development could force the discontinuation of other product candidates based on the ABC Platform[291](index=291&type=chunk)[295](index=295&type=chunk) - The company relies on third-party CMOs for manufacturing, which is a complex process. Any production difficulties, quality issues, or failure to meet regulatory standards could delay or stop the supply of product candidates for clinical trials[330](index=330&type=chunk)[375](index=375&type=chunk) [Unresolved Staff Comments](index=92&type=section&id=Item%201B.%20Unresolved%20Staff%20Comments) The company reports no unresolved staff comments from the SEC - None[471](index=471&type=chunk) [Properties](index=92&type=section&id=Item%202.%20Properties) The company leases approximately 11,000 square feet of office, research, and lab space in Palo Alto, California, with a lease extending to October 2023 - The company leases approximately **11,000 square feet** of office, research, and lab space in Palo Alto, California, with the lease term extending to October 31, 2023[472](index=472&type=chunk) [Legal Proceedings](index=92&type=section&id=Item%203.%20Legal%20Proceedings) The company is not a party to any material legal proceedings as of the report date - The company is not currently a party to any material legal proceedings[473](index=473&type=chunk) [Mine Safety Disclosures](index=92&type=section&id=Item%204.%20Mine%20Safety%20Disclosures) This item is not applicable to the company - None[474](index=474&type=chunk) PART II [Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholders Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities](index=93&type=section&id=Item%205.%20Market%20for%20Registrant%27s%20Common%20Equity%2C%20Related%20Stockholders%20Matters%20and%20Issuer%20Purchases%20of%20Equity%20Securities) The company's common stock began trading on Nasdaq in October 2018, raising $83.5 million net from its IPO, with no dividends paid or anticipated - The company's common stock has been listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol "KOD" since October 4, 2018[476](index=476&type=chunk) - On October 9, 2018, the company closed its IPO, selling **9.0 million shares** at **$10.00 per share**.
