With the support of Harrington Discovery Institute at University Hospitals (UH), an ophthalmic therapeutic dubbed KIO-301, which was initially developed by Richard Kramer, PhD, at the University of California, Berkeley (UCB), has successfully been granted approval to start a Phase 1b, first-in-human clinical trial. Currently under the stewardship of Kiora Pharmaceuticals, Inc., (NASDAQ: KPRX) via a license with UCB, Inc., the drug is intended to restore lost vision in patients with Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP)--a rare, genetic eye disease that causes severe loss of functional vision and affects an estimated 100,000 people in the U.S.
