In connection with such responses, the Company is concurrently filing Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement (the “Amended Registration Statement”).

For your convenience, the Staff’s comments are summarized in this letter, and each comment is followed by the applicable responses on behalf of the Company. Unless otherwise indicated, page references in the responses correspond to the page numbers in the Amended Registration Statement, and page references otherwise correspond to the page numbers in the Registration Statement.

  also note your disclosure that “[t]reatment with TH103 will be administered if the following criteria are met: (1) patient responds to one to three injections of aflibercept as determined by complete resolution of fluid measured by OCT and (2) within 90 days there is an emergence of fluid in the retina.” Please clarify if the disclosed criteria applies to Part 2 of the Phase 1 clinical trial, and, if so, clarify how the patients who had previously received injections of aflibercept would be considered treatment naïve. Also, if you expect to seek regulatory approval of TH103 as a second-line treatment for nAMD please make that clear.

Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises the Staff that it has revised the disclosures on pages 321 and 333 of the Amended Registration Statement in response to the Staff’s comment. In addition, the Company respectfully advises the Staff that Kalaris is developing TH103 as a first-line treatment for nAMD.
