US pharma company KaloBios Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: KBIO) has announced its president and chief executive, David Pritchard, is to retire.
He has also resigned from the company’s board of directors. KaloBios’ current chief financial officer, Herb Cross, has been named as interim chief executive while a permanent replacement is sought.
Ted Love, chairman of the KaloBios board of directors, said: "On behalf of the board, I would like to express our thanks and appreciation to Dave for his years of service to KaloBios. His retirement comes at an opportune time as we transition out of the pulmonary space and focus our efforts entirely on oncology. The board is confident that Herb and the team will continue to advance the company's oncology programs while we commence an immediate search for a permanent CEO with strong oncology development expertise."
