What happened
Kodiak Sciences said its DAYBREAK study met one-year vision goals for Zenkuda and KSI-501, meaning neither treatment performed worse than the comparison on measured vision outcomes. The company plans to seek approval for Zenkuda in three uses in late 2026. Its quarterly loss widened, and it raised money by selling shares.
Global impact / market context
The study result is progress, but it does not show that either treatment was better than the comparison. Kodiak also continues to lose money and use cash. Selling shares brought in money, but it can reduce existing shareholders’ ownership share.
What to watch
- Check whether Kodiak files its planned three-use Zenkuda application in the fourth quarter of 2026; this would show whether the stated plan moves ahead.
