ProKidney Corp.
2025 Annual Report
Dear Stockholders,
As we gather for the 2026 Annual Mee ng, I am pleased to re ect on a transforma ve year for
ProKidney. In 2025, we achieved pivotal milestones that strengthened rilparencel s clinical founda on,
advanced our regulatory strategy, and posi oned the company for meaningful progress in the years
ahead.
Last year, we delivered posi ve Phase 2 REGEN-007 results, secured alignment with the U.S. Food and
Drug Administra on (FDA) on the accelerated approval pathway for rilparencel, and generated strong
enrollment momentum in the Phase 3 PROACT 1 study. These accomplishments re ect the dedica on of
our team and the growing recogni on of rilparencel s poten al to address the urgent unmet need in
pa ents with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) and diabetes who are at high risk of kidney failure.
In November 2025, we presented full Phase 2 REGEN-007 data as a late-breaking clinical trial at the
American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week, followed by publica on in the Clinical Journal of the
American Society of Nephrology in January 2026. These results reinforced rilparencel s therapeu c
poten al and validated key elements of our Phase 3 design, including bilateral dosing and the use of
cryopreserved product.
Our regulatory progress was equally signi cant. In a July 2025 Type B mee ng, the FDA con rmed that
eGFR slope from the ongoing Phase 3 PROACT 1 study may serve as the surrogate endpoint and primary
basis for a Biologics License Applica on (BLA) under the accelerated approval pathway. Importantly, the
FDA also con rmed that PROACT 1 may support both accelerated and con rmatory approval of
rilparencel. We con nue to engage with the FDA under our Regenera ve Medicine Advanced Therapy
(RMAT) designa on as we work to bring this novel therapy to pa ents as e ciently as possible.
Enrollment in the Phase 3 PROACT 1 study accelerated throughout 2025, posi oning us to complete full
enrollment in the second half of 2026 and to expect a pivotal eGFR slope topline readout in the second
quarter of 2027. These milestones represent important steps toward the poten al commercializa on of
rilparencel.
I remain deeply grateful to our employees for their unwavering commitment, to our inves gators and
clinical study par cipants for their essen al partnership, and to our shareholders for their con nued
support. Together, we are advancing toward a poten al new treatment op on for pa ents with
signi cant unmet need, and we look forward to sharing our progress as this important work con nues.
Best regards,
Bruce Culleton, M.D.
