Clearside Biomedical, Inc., which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware on November 23, 2025, advanced its court-supervised sale process in December 2025 by securing approval of auction and bidding procedures for a sale of all or substantially all of its assets. On December 17, 2025, the company designated Health Ocean Limited, or its assignee, as the stalking horse bidder, and on December 19, 2025, the court approved both the bidding framework and that designation, making the stalking horse offer the minimum bid for any competing proposals.
