Kira Acquisition
Current report
On July 16, 2026, we acquired Kira Pharmaceuticals (“Kira”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 16, 2026 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among us, Kira and Kira Holdco Inc., a Delaware corporation and our wholly owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Kira merged with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving the merger and becoming our wholly owned subsidiary (the “Merger”). The Merger is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The consummation of the Merger did not require the approval of our stockholders.
Current report
As consideration for the Merger, we issued to the shareholders of Kira an aggregate of 5,195,009 shares of our voting common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and 4,644,977 shares of our non-voting convertible preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock”), each share of which is convertible into 61 shares of Common Stock, subject to stockholder approval and certain other conditions. In addition, each option to purchase Kira ordinary shares was assumed by us and converted into options to purchase an aggregate of 392,791 shares of Common Stock and an aggregate of 351,201 shares of Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock. Shares of Common Stock, options and warrants held by our stockholders immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger remain outstanding and were unaffected by the Merger.
Current report
Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which we agreed to sell an aggregate of 4,655,951 shares of Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $132.0 million (the “Financing”). The closing of the Financing occurred on July 20, 2026. We have agreed to file a resale registration statement with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock sold in the Financing within 90 calendar days following the closing of the Financing.
Current report
Immediately following the consummation of the Merger, but prior to giving effect to the Financing, our pre-transaction stockholders held approximately 11.27%, and former shareholders of Kira held approximately 88.73%, of our Common Stock, in each case calculated on a fully-diluted basis (without giving effect to any beneficial ownership limitations and assuming the conversion in full of the Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock). Following the consummation of the Financing, our pre-transaction stockholders hold approximately 6.68%, former shareholders of Kira hold approximately 49.86%, and the investors in the Financing hold approximately 43.46%, of our Common Stock, calculated on the same basis. As of August 10, 2026, there were 33,274,561 shares of Common Stock and 9,555,390 shares of Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding. If all outstanding shares of Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock were converted as of that date, there would be a total of approximately 42,829,951 shares of Common Stock outstanding.
Current report
We have agreed to convene a special meeting of our stockholders within 120 days following the closing of the Merger to seek approval of, among other matters, the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and an amendment to our certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock by an amount sufficient to permit the conversion of all Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock issued or reserved for issuance pursuant to the Merger Agreement and the securities purchase agreement. On the third business day following receipt of such stockholder approval, each share of Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically convert into shares of Common Stock at a ratio of 61 shares of Common Stock for each share of Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations. If we fail to deliver shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock following the earlier of receipt of stockholder approval and the twelve-month anniversary of the initial issuance of the Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock, holders of Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock may require us to pay cash equal to the fair value of the undelivered shares.
Current report
In connection with the Merger, each holder of record of our Common Stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger is entitled to receive one contractual contingent value right (a “CVR”) for each share of Common Stock held by such holder. Each CVR entitles the holder to receive a pro rata portion of an aggregate $30.0 million payment in the event the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) issues a priority review voucher in connection with briquilimab on or prior to December 31, 2028, payable upon a monetization event or a change of control. The CVRs are not transferable except in limited circumstances, will not be certificated and will not be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission or listed for trading on any exchange.
Current report
Further information regarding the Merger and the Financing can be found in Note 15 – Subsequent Events, included in “Part I, Item 1 – Financial Statements” of this Report.
Current report
Following the Merger, we are a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on advancing a consolidated pipeline of biologic agents designed to improve outcomes in patients with immunologically-driven disorders. Our consolidated pipeline includes KP-104, a bifunctional biologic targeting the treatment of PNH and high unmet need nephrology disorders; briquilimab, an anti-KIT antibody with therapeutic utility across multiple transplant and immunologic indications; KP-701, a dual-acting anti-CD79BxCD32B monoclonal antibody for autoantibody-mediated disorders; and discovery-stage programs in long-acting complement-targeted biologics. Our common stock continues to trade on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC under the ticker symbol “JSPR.”
Current report
KP-104 (vensobafusp alfa)
Current report
KP-104 is a Phase 2/3 ready, bifunctional biologic targeting both the alternative and terminal pathways within the complement cascade. We believe this dual mechanism addresses both upstream complement activation and downstream lytic damage, and may offer advantages relative to therapies targeting a single complement pathway. KP-104 is being evaluated in an ongoing Phase 2 basket trial in rare renal indications, with initial cohorts in IgA nephropathy (“IgAN”) and C3 glomerulopathy (“C3G”) and potential expansion into focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (“FSGS”) and other renal disorders. We expect to report interim data from Stage 1 of the ongoing Phase 2 basket trial in the fourth quarter of 2026 and updated data in the second quarter of 2027, and we plan to report interim data from Stage 2 of the study in the second quarter of 2027. Based on previous positive data in treatment-naïve PNH, we are planning for an end-of-Phase 2 meeting with the FDA and plan to announce next steps in the first half of 2027. By the end of 2026, we anticipate that we will announce a new indication for KP-104.
Current report
Briquilimab
Current report
Briquilimab is a targeted aglycosylated anti-KIT monoclonal antibody that blocks stem cell factor (“SCF”) from binding to the CD117 (“KIT”) receptor, inhibiting an essential survival signal for mast cells and a maintenance signal for hematopoietic stem cells, with therapeutic utility across multiple transplant and immunologic indications. Following positive, long-term data in severe combined immunodeficiency (“SCID”), we are progressing our efforts towards a pre-Biologics License Application (“BLA”) meeting with the FDA and expect to announce next steps in the first quarter of 2027. Briquilimab has received Orphan Drug Designation, Fast Track Designation and Rare Pediatric Disease Designation in SCID and, if approved, may be eligible for a priority review voucher. We also continue to assess the mast cell mediated disease landscape and will provide an update on our anticipated clinical development in the second half of 2026.
Current report
KP-701
Current report
KP-701 is a preclinical, dual-acting anti-CD79BxCD32B monoclonal antibody targeting the B-cell receptor, designed to suppress B-cell function and reduce cytokine and autoantibody production without antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity or complement-dependent cytotoxicity, in development for autoantibody-mediated disorders. In the first quarter of 2027, we expect to file a clinical trial application (“CTA”) or an investigational new drug application (“IND”) for Phase 1 testing, and we plan to report first-in-human data in the third quarter of 2027.
Current report
Discovery Programs
Current report
We are advancing discovery-stage programs in long-acting complement-targeted biologics for autoimmune inflammatory disorders, with development candidate selection expected in mid-2027.

License and Collaboration Agreements
Current report
On July 13, 2026, prior to the Merger, Kira entered into a license agreement with Mirador, pursuant to which Kira granted Mirador an exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing license, with the right to grant sublicenses, under certain patents and know-how controlled by Kira to develop, manufacture and commercialize products containing Kira’s anti-C5a monoclonal antibody (KP-301) and anti-C5aR small molecule compound (KP-402) for all uses and indications. In consideration for the license, Mirador agreed to pay an upfront payment of $12.0 million, and is obligated to pay up to an aggregate of $108.5 million in development and regulatory milestone payments and up to an aggregate of $350.0 million in commercial, net sales-based milestone payments, together with tiered royalties on annual net sales ranging from low to mid-single digits. Out-licensing these assets allows us to focus our resources on our current portfolio of high-value immunology targets.

Financial Operations Overview
Current report
We are in the process of evaluating the accounting for the Merger, including whether the transaction constitutes the acquisition of a business or an asset acquisition, the fair values of the assets acquired, and the resulting allocation of the cost of the acquisition. See Note 15 – Subsequent Events.
Current report
Concurrent with the execution of the Merger Agreement, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which we agreed to sell an aggregate of 4,655,951 shares of Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $132.0 million (the “Financing”). The closing of the Financing occurred on July 20, 2026. We have agreed to file a resale registration statement with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock sold in the Financing within 90 calendar days following the closing of the Financing, and have agreed to seek a stockholder vote to convert the Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock issued in the financing within 120 days from the closing of the Merger. In addition, in the event we are unable to obtain stockholder approval of the conversion of the Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock issued in the Financing within 12 months of the closing of the Merger, investors in the Financing have the right to require the Company to repurchase the Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock issued in the Financing at the then current fair market value.

We are a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing therapeutics targeting mast cell driven diseases such as Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (“CSU”), Chronic Inducible Urticaria (“CIndU”) and asthma. We may also consider additional indications in mast cell driven diseases for potential future development. We have also historically explored development programs in diseases where targeting diseased hemopoietic stem cells can provide benefits, such as stem cell transplant conditioning regimens, but those programs have been discontinued and we are exclusively focused on mast cell driven diseases.
Previous report
The conclusions reached as a result of the investigation were supported by expert panels comprised of key opinion leaders in clinical development and antibody manufacturing experts that reviewed the findings and provided clinical operations and development recommendations on patient enrollment processes that are being integrated into the planned Phase 2b/3 CSU study to increase the likelihood that CSU patients enrolled in the study would be more likely to have mast cell driven disease.

Previous report
We intend to become a fully integrated discovery, development and commercial company in the field of mast cell therapeutics. We are developing our product candidates to be used individually or, in some cases, in combination with other therapeutics. Our goal is to advance our product candidates through regulatory approval and bring them to the commercial market based on the data from our clinical trials and communications with regulatory agencies and payor communities. We expect to continue to broaden our pipeline with additional mast cell indications and next-generation products by leveraging our research organization.
Previous report
Our management plans to monitor expenses and raise additional capital through a combination of public and private equity, debt financings, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements. Our ability to access capital when needed is not assured and, if capital is not available to us when, and in the amounts, needed, we may be required to significantly curtail, delay or discontinue one or more of our research or development programs or the commercialization of any product candidate, or be unable to expand our operations or otherwise capitalize on our business opportunities, as desired, which could materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Previous report
We do not currently own or operate any manufacturing facility. We rely on contract manufacturing organizations (“CMOs”) to produce our drug candidates in accordance with the FDA’s current good manufacturing practices (“cGMP”) regulations for use in our clinical trials. The manufacture of pharmaceuticals is subject to extensive cGMP regulations, which impose various procedural and documentation requirements and govern all areas of record keeping, production processes and controls, personnel and quality control. Under our license agreement with Amgen, we have received a substantial amount of drug product to support initiation of our planned clinical trials of briquilimab. In November 2019, we entered into development and manufacturing agreements with Lonza Sales AG (“Lonza”) relating to the manufacturing of briquilimab and product quality testing. The facility of Lonza in Slough, United Kingdom is responsible for production and testing of drug substance. The facility of Lonza in Stein, Switzerland is responsible for production and testing of drug product. Labelling, packaging and storage of finished drug product is provided by PCI Pharma Services, in San Diego, California. Our agreement with Lonza includes certain limitations on our ability to enter into supply arrangements with any other supplier without Lonza’s consent. In addition, Lonza has the right to increase the prices it charges us for certain supplies depending on a number of factors, some of which are outside of our control. In addition, given drug substance and drug product manufacturing and testing with Lonza currently occurs outside the United States, drug product imported into the United States for clinical or commercial use could be subject to significant tariffs in the current political environment.
Previous report
We do not currently have sales and marketing infrastructure to support commercial launch of our product candidates, if approved. We may build such capabilities in North America prior to potential launch of briquilimab. Outside of North America, we may rely on licensing, co-sale and co-promotion agreements with strategic partners for the commercialization of our product candidates. If we build a commercial infrastructure to support marketing in North America, such commercial infrastructure could be expected to include a targeted sales force supported by sales management, internal sales support, an internal marketing group and distribution support. To develop the appropriate commercial infrastructure internally, we would have to invest financial and management resources, some of which would have to be deployed prior to any confirmation that briquilimab will be approved.
Previous report
Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development, we are unable to predict the timing or amount of increased expenses or when or if we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. Even if we are able to generate revenue from the sale of our product candidates, we may not become profitable. If we fail to become profitable or are unable to sustain profitability on a continuing basis, then we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and may be forced to reduce our operations.

Our lead product candidate, briquilimab, is a monoclonal antibody designed to block stem cell factor (“SCF”) from binding to and signaling through the CD117 (“KIT”) receptor on mast and stem cells. The SCF/KIT pathway is a survival signal for mast cells and we believe that blocking this pathway may lead to depletion of these cells throughout the body, including in the lungs and in the skin, which could lead to significant clinical benefit for patients with mast-cell driven diseases such as asthma and chronic urticarias. To that end, we are focusing on advancing a portfolio of clinical programs in mast cell driven diseases, highlights of which were as follows:

We have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 we incurred net losses of $1.2 million and $21.2 million, respectively. We generated negative operating cash flows of $14.5 million and $22.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $317.8 million.

We have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 we incurred net losses of $2.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 we incurred net losses of $26.7 million and $48.0 million, respectively. We generated negative operating cash flows of $21.5 million and $38.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

We had cash and cash equivalents of $14.1 million as of March 31, 2026. We expect to continue to incur substantial losses for the foreseeable future, and our transition to profitability will depend upon successful development, approval and commercialization of our product candidates and upon achievement of sufficient revenues to support our cost structure. We do not expect to generate any revenue from commercial product sales unless and until we successfully complete development and obtain regulatory approval for one or more of our product candidates. We may never achieve profitability, and unless we do and until then, we will need to continue to raise additional capital. Accordingly, based on our current operating plan, and along with our history of operating losses, our current cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our ongoing operations for a period of at least twelve months from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are issued.

We had cash and cash equivalents of $7.3 million as of June 30, 2026. We expect to continue to incur substantial losses for the foreseeable future, and our transition to profitability will depend upon successful development, approval and commercialization of our product candidates and upon achievement of sufficient revenues to support our cost structure. We do not expect to generate any revenue from commercial product sales unless and until we successfully complete development and obtain regulatory approval for one or more of our product candidates. We may never achieve profitability, and unless we do and until then, we will need to continue to raise additional capital. Accordingly, based on our current operating plan, and along with our history of operating losses, and given the potential risk of having to repurchase the Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock issued in the Financing if we are unable to obtain stockholder approval to convert it to Common Stock within 12 months, our current cash and cash equivalents may not be sufficient to fund our ongoing operations for a period of at least twelve months from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are issued.

Previous wording
At the program level, the decrease in clinical program expenses was primarily driven by decreased costs related to the asthma program, briquilimab platform and CMO product development and manufacturing expenses not allocated to specific programs. Enrollment in the ETESIAN study for the asthma program, which began in late 2024, was halted in July 2025. The decrease in asthma program expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was further impacted by reductions in previously accrued CRO investigator grant costs following the reconciliation and close-out of the study. We substantially discontinued the SCID program in 2025 and MDS/AML program in late 2024 and do not expect to incur significant costs related to these programs in the future.

Previous wording
We have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. As of March 31, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $317.8 million. Given our recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows, and based on our current operating plan, we have concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date of filing of this Quarterly Report. We expect to finance our future cash needs through equity or debt financings, collaborations or a combination of these approaches, and given the imminent need for additional funding to continue to fund operations in the near-term, we are actively seeking additional capital to extend our cash runway. The sale of equity or convertible debt securities may result in dilution to our stockholders, and, in the case of preferred equity securities or convertible debt, those securities could provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of our common stock. Debt financings may subject us to covenant limitations or restrictions on our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt or making capital expenditures. Our ability to raise additional funds may be adversely impacted by negative global economic conditions and any disruptions to and volatility in the credit and financial markets in the United States and worldwide or other factors. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in acquiring additional funding at levels sufficient to fund our operations or on terms favorable or acceptable to us. While we routinely evaluate cost reduction measures to proactively manage cash burn, if we are unable to obtain adequate financing when needed or on terms favorable or acceptable to us, we may be forced to take broader actions such as to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of our research and development programs.
