Krystal Biotech, Inc. Receives FDA Platform Technology Designation for HSV-1 Viral Vector Used in KB801 for the Treatment of Neurotrophic Keratitis Krystal Biotech, Inc. announced that the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted platform technology designation to the genetically modified, non-replicating herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) viral vector used in the Company's redosable eye drop gene therapy KB801, currently under evaluation in a randomized placebo controlled trial for the treatment of neurotrophic keratitis (NK). The FDA's platform technology designation program is intended to provide efficiencies in drug development, manufacturing, and review processes for drug product applications that incorporate designated platform technologies. Potential benefits of the designation may include early and more frequent engagement with the FDA during clinical development as well as the opportunity to leverage manufacturing and nonclinical safety data from a prior product using the designated platform technology, such as VYJUVEK, in submissions to the FDA. The FDA may also consider previous inspectional findings related to the manufacture of a drug that incorporates the designated platform technology. To be eligible for a platform technology designation, a technology must be well-understanding and reproducible, used in an FDA-approved drug or biologic product, such as VYJ UVEK, have the potential to support the development of multiple drugs or biologic products without compromising quality, manufacturing, or safety, and have a reasonable likelihood to bring significant efficiencies to the development or manufacturing process as well as to the FDA review process. Drug product applications that are then recognized by the FDA to incorporate this technology may leverage the potential benefits of the designation. KB801 is a redosable eye drop gene treatment designed to enable sustained, localized expression and secretion of vein growth factor (NGF) by epithelial cells in the front of the eye for the treatment of NK, a rare,degenerative corneal disease that leads to corneal epithelial defects, ulcers, and perforation. Recombinant NGF eye drops have been shown to significantly improve corneal healing and are approved for the treatment of NK in multiple jurisdictions worldwide, but rapid clearance from the eye requires intensive administration six times a day, limiting therapeutic utility. By enabling the cells of the front of the eye to produce NGF locally, KB801 has the potential to significantly reduce the treatment burden for patients while also maintaining more consistent NGF levels in the front of the eye. The Company is rapidly advancing a robust preclinical and clinical pipeline of investigational genetic medicines in respiratory, oncology, dermatology, ophthalmology, and aesthetics.

Krystal Biotech Announces First Patient Dosed in Phase 1/2 Trial of Kb801 for the Treatment of Neurotrophic Keratitis Krystal Biotech, Inc. announced that the first patient has been dosed in its Phase 1/2 clinical trial ("EMERALD-1"), a 2:1 randomized, double-masked, multicenter, placebo-controlled study evaluating KB801 for the treatment of neurotrophic keratitis (NK). KB801 is a redosable eye drop gene therapy in development for the treatment of NK, a degenerative corneal disease characterized by damage or loss of function in the neurons innervating the eye leading to corneal
epithelial defects, ulcers, and perforation. Left untreated, NK can result in severe vision loss. Although NK is a rare disease with an estimated prevalence in the range of 10 to 50 cases per 100,000, claims data analyses suggest awareness and diagnosis rates are on the rise in the United States. Based on available claims data, an estimated 68,000 patients in the United States had a NK claim in 2024, up over 115% from 31,000 patients with a NK claim in 2020. EMERALD-1 is a randomized, double-masked, multicenter, placebo-controlled study evaluating KB801, administered as an eye drop, for the treatment of NK. Up to 27 adults with Stage 2 or Stage 3 NK, as defined by the Mackie criteria, will be enrolled and randomized 2:1 to receive either KB801, at a concentration of 1010 PFU/mL, or placebo topically to the study eye twice weekly for 8 weeks. The primary objective of EMERALD-1 is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of topical ocular administration of KB801 in patients with NK. The secondary objective is evaluation of efficacy based on the proportion of patients with complete durable healing of corneal epithelium at 8 weeks, defined as 0 mm corneal fluorescein staining in the area of the corneal lesion at both week 8 and 0 mm corneal fluorescein staining in the same area at week 10, as assessed by a masked reader. Additional exploratory efficacy measures will include change in corneal lesion size from baseline, each assessed at weeks 4, 6, 8, 10, and 20, as well as evaluations of corneal sensation and patient-reported symptom burden. More details of the EMERALD-1 study can be found at www.clinicaltrials.gov under NCT identifier NCT06999733. Ankündigung • Jun 25
