A market research report forecasts significant growth for HepaGam B, an immunoglobulin therapy for hepatitis B prevention, driven by rising disease prevalence and expanding healthcare initiatives. The World Health Organization reported 254 million people infected with hepatitis B in 2022, with 1.1 million deaths from related complications. Key growth drivers include increased healthcare worker safety measures, global health initiatives targeting hepatitis B elimination by 2030, and expanding plasma collection capacity. Kamada Limited recently opened a Houston facility to meet growing demand for plasma-derived products. North America held the largest market position in 2025, whilst Asia-Pacific is expected to experience the fastest growth. The market faces challenges including tariffs affecting plasma collection costs and production logistics, prompting increased domestic sourcing and manufacturing capacity expansion.

(Nasdaq: KLRS) ("Kalaris"), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the development and commercialization of treatments for prevalent retinal diseases, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, and provided business updates. "The third quarter marked an important inflection point for Kalaris," said Andrew Oxtoby, Chief Executive Officer of Kalaris Therapeutics. "Most importantly, we began enrolling our Phase 1b/2 multiple ascending dose trial of TH103 in neovascular age-related Macular Degeneration (nAMD). This Phase 1b/2 trial is designed to build on our ongoing Phase 1a single ascending dose trial; we look forward to reporting initial clinical data from our Phase 1a trial by the end of this year, including safety, preliminary efficacy (e.g., visual acuity and lesion morphology), and pharmacokinetics." In addition to progressing TH103's clinical development program, Kalaris also entered a formal agreement with KBI Biopharma for clinical supply manufacturing. Mr. Oxtoby stated, "Working with KBI is an important step as we progress into a later stage biotech company. Our decision to work with KBI reflects their deep technical expertise to support continued development of TH103." Katie Edgar, Chief Business Officer of KBI Biopharma, said, "We look forward to applying our scientific and regulatory acumen to helping progress Kalaris' exciting product candidate. Our agreement with Kalaris reflects our shared commitment to patient impact." Business Updates * Initial clinical data from the Phase 1a clinical trial expected by year end 2025. The single ascending dose trial followed patients after a single injection of TH103 to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary treatment effect of TH103 in treatment naïve nAMD patients. * Newly initiated Phase 1b/2 dose-finding clinical trial is designed to evaluate multiple dose levels of TH103 in up to 80 nAMD patients. Patients are expected to receive 4 initial monthly intravitreal injections of TH103. Study assessments are expected to include safety and preliminary efficacy with a primary time point for analysis at one-month following the last injection with patients followed thereafter in an extension phase. * KBI Biopharma, based in North Carolina, selected as Kalaris' Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) for clinical supply manufacturing of TH103. * As previously announced, Kalaris expanded its leadership team with the hire of Matthew Gall, Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Gall has over 20 years of corporate finance experience, including business development transactions and financial operations and strategy for both small and large biopharmaceutical companies. * New corporate headquarters opened in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey. Financial Results for the Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2025 Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments: As of September 30, 2025, Kalaris had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $77.0 million, compared with cash and cash equivalents of $1.6 million as of December 31, 2024. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily a result of the completion of its merger with AlloVir in Q1 2025. Kalaris expects that its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of September 30, 2025 will be sufficient to fund its operations into 2027. Research and Development Expenses: Research and development expenses were $9.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared with $36.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The decrease quarter-over-quarter was primarily attributable to a $32.0 million royalty obligation expense for a Royalty agreement entered into with Samsara in July 2024, offset by an increase in costs related to the outsourcing of manufacturing and clinical-related costs to support the ongoing Phase 1a and the newly initiated Phase 1b/2 clinical trial. General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $3.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared with $1.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The increase quarter-over-quarter was primarily attributable to an increase in insurance, legal, accounting, and professional fees and personnel related costs to support operating as a public company. Net Loss: For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, net loss was $11.9 million compared with a net loss of $38.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The total number of shares of common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2025 was 18,702,418.
