The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 attached hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
| Item 8.01. | Other Events. |
On December 17, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing initial data from its Phase 1a SAD trial of TH103 in treatment-naïve patients with nAMD. The data demonstrate that TH103’s engineered molecular properties translated into clinically meaningful improvements in vision and retinal anatomy, with early signals suggesting the potential for extended treatment durability.
Initial Phase 1a Data Support Molecular Hypothesis with Strong Clinical Activity
The Phase 1a trial evaluated a single intravitreal injection of TH103 at three dose levels (0.5 mg, 1.5 mg, 2.5 mg) in treatment-naïve nAMD patients (N=13) who completed 6 months of follow-up. Results demonstrated robust visual and anatomic improvements that support TH103’s molecular design and preclinical profile.
Rapid, Robust Response in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (“BCVA”) and Optical Coherence Tomography Parameters Across Dose Levels at 1 Month
| • | Mean 10-letter BCVA improvement |
| • | Mean 129 µm improvement in mean central subfield thickness |
| • | Mean approximately 95% reduction in central subfield intraretinal fluid |
TH103 Generally Well Tolerated, Supporting Exploration of Further Dose Escalation
| • | No dose-limiting toxicities observed |
| • | No TH103-related serious adverse events observed |
| • | No instances of TH103-related retinal vascular occlusive disease, retinal vasculitis, cataracts, or elevated intraocular pressure observed |
Two cases of transient, mild-moderate intraocular inflammation (“IOI”) were observed at Day 4 in two subjects dosed at 2.5 mg, which were attributed to levels of host cell protein in the drug product. Additional processing steps were implemented into the manufacturing process, significantly reducing host cell protein levels. Subsequently, six additional subjects were enrolled and treated with new, further purified material at the 2.5 mg dose level and there have been zero new instances of IOI (≥1 week follow-up). Based on these results, the Company plans to use the drug product produced with the updated manufacturing process in its ongoing and planned clinical trials.
Initial Phase 1a Data Provides Evidence TH103 May Offer Extended Treatment Durability
| • | Pharmacokinetic Profile - Plasma levels of TH103 dose adjusted mean Cmax were 27 to 51-fold lower compared to current leading anti-VEGF agents, consistent with enhanced intraocular retention and reduced systemic exposure. This pharmacokinetic profile aligns with the molecule’s engineered properties and preclinical data demonstrating prolonged intraocular residence time. |
| • | Retreatment Analysis - Following only a single TH103 injection, 31% of patients received no additional anti-VEGF treatment during the entire six-month follow-up period. These single-dose findings suggest the potential for extended durability outcomes after a standard four-dose loading regimen. |
Next Steps in Clinical Development
Based on these positive initial Phase 1a data, the Company is accelerating its clinical development program. The Company continues to enroll patients in an ongoing Phase 1b/2, multi-ascending dose, dose-finding study evaluating four monthly loading injections of TH103 to identify the optimal dose and regimen for potential Phase 3 development. The Company expects to share preliminary data from the ongoing Phase 1b/2 study in the second half of 2026.

Kalaris conference call today at 4:30 pm EST
BERKELEY HEIGHTS, N.J., December 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Kalaris Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: KLRS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the development and commercialization of treatments for prevalent retinal diseases, today announced positive initial data from its Phase 1a single ascending dose (SAD) trial of TH103, a fully humanized, recombinant fusion protein that acts against VEGF as a decoy receptor, in treatment-naïve patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). The data demonstrate that TH103’s engineered molecular properties translated into clinically meaningful improvements in vision and retinal anatomy, with early signals suggesting the potential for extended treatment durability. The initial data will be presented at 4:30 pm EST today via webcast.
TH103 was Engineered for Enhanced Potency and Intraocular Retention
Invented by Dr. Napoleone Ferrara, Kalaris’ scientific co-founder and current board member, whose pioneering research led to the development of the anti-VEGF class of therapies for retinal and oncology diseases, TH103 is an investigational anti-VEGF therapy specifically engineered to achieve extended intraocular retention with enhanced VEGF inhibition. Dr. Ferrara designed the molecule with specific structural characteristics intended to prolong residence time in the eye. In preclinical studies, TH103 demonstrated significantly enhanced binding to heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) and slower systemic clearance compared to aflibercept, supporting the hypothesis that these molecular characteristics could translate to extended durability.
Initial Phase 1a Data Support Molecular Hypothesis with Strong Clinical Activity
The Phase 1a trial evaluated a single intravitreal injection of TH103 at three dose levels (0.5 mg, 1.5 mg, 2.5 mg) in treatment-naïve nAMD patients (N=13) who completed 6 months of follow-up. Results demonstrated robust visual and anatomic improvements that support TH103’s molecular design and preclinical profile.
Rapid, Robust Response in BCVA and OCT Parameters Across Dose Levels at 1 Month
| • | Mean 10-letter best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improvement |
| • | Mean 129 µm improvement in mean central subfield thickness (CST) |
| • | Mean ~95% reduction in central subfield intraretinal fluid (IRF) |
“These initial Phase 1a data are highly encouraging and validate the molecular engineering approach we pursued in developing TH103,” said Dr. Ferrara. “We believe the rapid visual and anatomic improvements we observed are consistent with potent VEGF inhibition.”
TH103 Generally Well Tolerated, Supporting Exploration of Further Dose Escalation
| • | No dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) observed |
| • | No TH103-related serious adverse events (SAEs) observed |
| • | No instances of TH103-related retinal vascular occlusive disease, retinal vasculitis, cataracts, or elevated intraocular pressure observed |
Two cases of transient, mild-moderate intraocular inflammation (IOI) were observed at Day 4 in two subjects dosed at 2.5 mg, which were attributed to levels of host cell protein in the drug product. Additional processing steps were implemented into the manufacturing process, significantly reducing host cell protein levels. Subsequently, six additional subjects were enrolled and treated with new, further purified material at the 2.5 mg dose level and there have been zero new instances of IOI (≥1 week follow-up). Based on these results, Kalaris plans to use the drug product produced with the updated manufacturing process in its ongoing and planned clinical trials.
Initial Phase 1a Data Provides Evidence TH103 May Offer Extended Treatment Durability
Pharmacokinetic Profile - Plasma levels of TH103 dose adjusted mean Cmax were 27 to 51-fold lower compared to current leading anti-VEGF agents, consistent with enhanced intraocular retention and reduced systemic exposure. This pharmacokinetic profile aligns with the molecule’s engineered properties and preclinical data demonstrating prolonged intraocular residence time.
Retreatment Analysis - Following only a single TH103 injection, 31% of patients received no additional anti-VEGF treatment during the entire six-month follow-up period. These single-dose findings suggest the potential for extended durability outcomes after a standard four-dose loading regimen.
“These data are consistent with what was observed in preclinical studies and reinforce what we would expect based on TH103’s molecular design,” added Andrew Oxtoby, Chief Executive Officer of Kalaris. “The pharmacokinetic profile and retreatment data provide early signals that the enhanced intraocular retention designed into the molecule may translate to extended clinical durability and reduce the treatment burden for patients.”
Next Steps in Clinical Development
Based on these positive initial Phase 1a data, Kalaris is accelerating its clinical development program. Kalaris continues to enroll patients in an ongoing Phase 1b/2, multi-ascending dose, dose-finding study evaluating four monthly loading injections of TH103 to identify the optimal dose and regimen for potential Phase 3 development. Kalaris expects to share preliminary data from the ongoing Phase 1b/2 study in the second half of 2026.
Conference Call & Webcast Information
Members of the Kalaris management team, along with Joel Pearlman, MD, PhD and Donald J. D’Amico, MD, will host a live conference call and webcast today at 4:30 pm Eastern Time to review the initial Phase 1a data.
