An investigational anti-VEGF biologic designed for long-interval dosing

---

Tarcocimab is our most advanced program. We have important learnings from six pivotal studies across four major retinal diseases and maintain our conviction that tarcocimab could be an important medicine.

With tarcocimab’s signature durability and safety record, as demonstrated in multiple studies, we believe tarcocimab could be differentiated in the market as a longest-acting biologic based on its ABC Platform design. Our objective is to finish the clinical development program and enable the marketing application. We intend to do this using the go-to-market formulation that we developed in our manufacturing facility, Ursus.

1. Across tarcocimab tedromer pivotal studies for diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion and wet age-related macular degeneration.
2. According to the product label for aflibercept, high-dose aflibercept, faricimab and ranibizumab.

Our Phase 3 studies across high-prevalence retinal diseases

---

Three Phase 3 studies complete in diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion and wet age-related macular degeneration with compelling durability demonstrated.

In addition to these studies, tarcocimab was also studied in the Phase 2b/3 DAZZLE study in wet AMD and in the Phase 3 GLEAM and GLIMMER studies in DME. These studies did not meet primary endpoint but did demonstrate strong 5 and 6-month durability in the majority of patients.

Two new Phase 3 studies in process.

Kodiak made adjustments to the tarcocimab product that improve the manufacturability in a prefilled syringe and we believe may also enhance the utility of the product. Both GLOW2 and DAYBREAK will use this go-to-market formulation of tarcocimab.

Results from our Phase 3 clinical studies

---

Tarcocimab demonstrated differentiated durability in the GLOW1 study in diabetic retinopathy and in the BEACON study in retinal vein occlusion.

GLOW1 Phase 3 study in diabetic retinopathy¹

1.The Phase 3 GLOW1 study is a global, multi-center, randomized pivotal study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tarcocimab in patients with treatment-naïve, moderately severe to severe DR. All patients were randomized to receive either tarcocimab every six months after 3 initiating doses or to receive sham injections.

DRSS: diabetic retinopathy severity scale; DME; diabetic macular edema; PDR; proliferative diabetic retinopathy; ASNV: anterior segment neovascularization; CST; central subfield thickness; BCVA; best corrected visual acuity; NVD: neovascularization of the disc; NVE; neovascularization elsewhere; VH: vitreous hemorrhage; NVG; neovascular glaucoma.
Weighted percentages are based on weighted average of observed estimates across strata using CMH weights. p-values are based on the difference in response rates.

BEACON Phase 3 study in retinal vein occlusion²

2. The Phase 3 BEACON study is a global, multi-center, randomized study designed to evaluate the durability, efficacy and safety of tarcocimab tedromer Q8W vs. aflibercept Q4W in patients with macular edema due to RVO.

First-in-class

An investigational dual inhibitor biologic designed to address both vascular permeability and inflammation for high-prevalence retinal vascular diseases

---

Inflammation has been shown to play a significant role in high-prevalence retinal vascular diseases. However, no treatments exist that concurrently address vascular permeability and inflammation.

KSI-501, our second investigational medicine built on our Antibody Biopolymer Conjugate (ABC) platform, is designed to inhibit VEGF and IL-6, a pro-inflammatory cytokine and immune growth factor, combining two powerful mechanisms of action to address retinal vascular disease and the underlying inflammatory cascade.

KSI-501 is designed for highly efficient binding to both IL-6 and VEGF

IL-6 levels are significantly elevated in eyes with retinal vascular disease and are implicated in anti-VEGF treatment resistance

In pre-clinical studies, dual inhibition of VEGF and IL-6 by KSI-501 demonstrated normalization of inner and outer blood retinal barriers compared to anti-VEGF or anti-IL-6 monotherapy

---

Inner blood-retinal barrier: leakage from vascular endothelium disruption leads to macular edema and hemorrhage
Outer blood-retinal barrier: RPE integrity prevents choroidal vascularization from invading the retina

Following Phase 1 results, we plan to advance KSI-501 into a Phase 3 study in wet AMD

---

Our Phase 1 study in DME, a disease known to have high levels of cytokine-mediated microvascular inflammation in addition to VEGF-mediated vascular permeability, is now complete.

We believe the Phase 1 study results support further clinical development of the KSI-501 program in high-prevalence retinal vascular diseases, such as wet AMD.

In wet AMD, there is preclinical evidence IL-6 is implicated in the development of choroidal neovascularization and clinical evidence demonstrating that IL-6 is associated with development and progression of AMD, resistance to anti-VEGF treatment in wet AMD, and reactivation of disease by promoting growth of new neovascular membranes.

We intend to advance KSI-501 into the Phase 3 DAYBREAK study in 2024 to evaluate its efficacy, durability and safety in wet AMD.

KSI-501 contains three tiers of innovation

First-in-class

An investigational biologic that addresses the multifactorial nature of macular edema associated with inflammation

---

In patients with intraocular inflammation, significant vision loss is most commonly a consequence of macular edema. Studies show that inflammation and vascular permeability have a synergistic effect on driving disease progression and vision loss due to macular edema, but there are no approved therapies that target both drivers of disease.

KSI-101 is an investigational, high formulation strength (100 mg/ml) bispecific protein designed to directly target both IL-6-mediated inflammation and edema, and VEGF-mediated vascular permeability.

Patients with vision-threatening retinal inflammatory disease have limited treatment options today

---

Uveitis is a heterogenous group of diseases characterized by intraocular inflammation. Macular edema is the leading cause of vision loss among uveitis patients. Many patients with macular edema have persistent disease activity despite treatment and are at risk for vision loss.

In macular edema associated with uveitis there is no standard treatment algorithm and patients are exposed to therapies with limited efficacy and undesirable side effects.

Studies show that both IL-6 and VEGF play a key role in retinal inflammatory disease

---

It has been demonstrated that IL-6 levels are elevated in ocular compartments and in serum in patients with non-infectious uveitis, and further elevated in uveitis patients who have macular edema.

2. de Boer et al.  Curr Eye Res. 1992;11 Suppl:181-186

In addition, persistent inflammation triggers VEGF upregulation. Consequently, VEGF levels are found to be elevated in aqueous humor of eyes with uveitis and uveitic macular edema, which can lead to angiogenesis, vascular leakage, and blood-retinal barrier dysfunction.

KSI-101 focuses on a market opportunity outside the established anti-VEGF class

---

We plan to initiate a small dose-finding Phase 1b study of KSI-101 in 2Q 2024 to evaluate its safety and tolerability and to identify two dose levels to progress into pivotal studies. We hope to initiate dual pivotal studies with KSI-101 in 2024.

Antibody Drug Conjugate (ADC) therapies are revolutionizing the way cancer is treated today by delivering highly potent cancer-killing agents directly to cancer cells via a targeted antibody. With our ABC triplet medicines, we aim to build on this foundation in notable ways:

ADC Primarily developed to treat cancer today Constrained by its Drug Antibody Ratio (DAR) of up to 8 Limited to using small molecules that are highly potent and cytotoxic with serious side effects Antibody primarily serves as a targeting agent to deliver cytotoxic small molecules to cancer cells

ABC Triplet Medicine Designed for ophthalmic and also systemic diseases such as cancer Designed to provide DARs of 50, 100 and up to 250 by embedding the biopolymer with small molecules Enables the use of mechanistic small molecules rather than cytotoxins Biopolymer can also be stably linked to a protein therapeutic (e.g., antibody) Same durability benefit enabled by the ABC Platform Antibody can be designed to target a cell or a biological pathway
