Company Overview

KALA BIO, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing therapies for rare and severe eye diseases. The company is centered on its mesenchymal stem cell secretome platform, which is designed to deliver multiple naturally occurring growth factors and proteins that may support tissue repair and reduce inflammation.

KALA BIO’s lead investigational product candidate, KPI-012, is being developed for the treatment of persistent corneal epithelial defects, a condition in which the surface of the cornea does not heal properly. The company has evaluated KPI-012 in clinical studies and has pursued additional development opportunities in rare corneal diseases.

The company was formerly known as Kala Pharmaceuticals and previously developed EYSUVIS, an ophthalmic corticosteroid approved in the United States for the short-term treatment of dry-eye disease symptoms. KALA BIO subsequently shifted its strategic focus toward rare diseases and regenerative ophthalmic therapies. Its activities are primarily centered on research and clinical development in the United States.
