Frequently asked questions about KVD001

What is KVD001 used for?

KVD001 is an investigational small molecule being developed for diabetic macular edema (DME), a condition that causes swelling in the macula of the eye due to diabetes. It is administered by intravitreal injection and is currently in clinical development, though it has not been approved by the FDA.

What does KVD001 target?

KVD001 is a plasma kallikrein inhibitor. It works by inhibiting plasma kallikrein, an enzyme involved in the inflammatory and vascular pathways that contribute to diabetic macular edema. By blocking this target, KVD001 aims to reduce vascular leakage and swelling in the retina.

Who is developing KVD001?

KVD001 is being developed by KalVista Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol KALV. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of KVD001 in patients with diabetic macular edema.

What phase is KVD001 in?

KVD001 is in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed a Phase 1 study and a Phase 2 study, both of which are finished. The drug remains investigational and has not received FDA approval, meaning it is still being studied for safety and effectiveness in treating diabetic macular edema.

What clinical trials is KVD001 in?

KVD001 has been studied in two completed clinical trials. The first, NCT02193113, was a Phase 1 single ascending dose study in 14 subjects with diabetic macular edema. The second, NCT03466099, was a Phase 2 study in 129 subjects with center-involving diabetic macular edema. Both trials were conducted in the United States.

Is KVD001 the same as any other drug?

KVD001 is a unique investigational compound developed by KalVista Pharmaceuticals. It is not known to be the same as any other marketed drug. It is a small molecule plasma kallikrein inhibitor specifically designed for intravitreal administration to treat diabetic macular edema.
