5.3 Changes to the Global Development Plan.

5.3.1 Additional Activities under Global Development Plan. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 5.3.2 (Development of Additional Licensed Compounds):

(a) Either Party (the “Proposing Party”) may, from time to time during the Term, submit to the JDC any proposed update to (i) the Global Development Plan to include additional Research and Development activities (or to otherwise update the Research and Development activities) for the Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products other than Sanofi Independent Development Activities or Fulcrum Independent Development Activities and (ii) the Global Development Budget to correspond with any changes to the Global Development Plan contemplated in the foregoing clause (i) (any such additional Research and Development activity, “Additional Activity”). The JDC will review, discuss, and determine whether to approve each update with respect to an Additional Activity to the Global Development Plan and the Global Development Budget and will submit any such update to the JSC to review, discuss, and determine whether to approve.

(b) If approved by the JDC and JSC (as applicable), each update with respect to the applicable Additional Activity to the Global Development Plan or the Global Development Budget will become effective and supersede the previous Global Development Plan or Global Development Budget, as applicable, as of the date of such approval or at such other time as decided by the JSC.

(c) If the JDC and JSC (as applicable) do not approve an Additional Activity, then:

(i) The Proposing Party may conduct the Additional Activity, at its sole expense, as part of the Sanofi Independent Development Plan or Fulcrum Independent Development Plan, as applicable; provided, that such

---

Additional Activity is consistent at all times with the Global Development Plan, conducted in compliance with all Applicable Laws (including GLP, GCP, and GMP, as applicable), and would not have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to Sanofi if the Proposing Party is Fulcrum and Fulcrum if the Proposing Party is Sanofi.

(ii) The Proposing Party shall keep the non-Proposing Party reasonably informed as to the progress of the Additional Activity, including by providing updates on the progress of such Additional Activity at each JDC meeting in accordance with Section 5.8 (Development Reports).

(iii) Any information, data or other Know-How arising out of such Additional Activity will not be included as “Sanofi Know-How” under this Agreement if the Proposing Party is Sanofi or as “Fulcrum Know-How” if the Proposing Party is Fulcrum, in each case, unless the non-Proposing Party pays for such right under Section 5.3.1(c)(iv) (Additional Activities under Global Development Plan).

(iv) The non-Proposing Party will have the right, but not the obligation, to obtain access to and use of any information, data and other Know-How arising out of such Additional Activity on payment to the Proposing Party of an amount equal to [***] of its equal share of the actual Internal Costs and External Costs incurred by the Proposing Party or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Additional Activity (which costs, for clarity, shall thereafter be deemed Eligible Global Development Costs) as set forth in Section 5.7 (Development Cost Sharing).

5.3.2 Development of Additional Licensed Compounds. If at any time during the Term either Party or its Affiliates identifies any compound within its Control that it in good faith believes is reasonably likely to constitute a Licensed Compound (whether in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise) (such compound, the “Additional Compound”), such Party shall promptly notify the JDC, which notice shall include a brief explanation as to how such Additional Compound was Developed and the basis of such Party’s belief that such Additional Compound may constitute a Licensed Compound. The JDC will review, discuss, and determine whether to amend (i) the Global Development Plan to add the Research and Development activities necessary to support further Research and Development of such Additional Compound and (ii) the Global Development Budget to correspond with any changes to the Global Development Plan contemplated in the foregoing clause (i) (such activities, the “Additional LC Activities”), and will submit any such updates to the JSC. The JSC will review, discuss, and determine whether to approve the inclusion of any such Additional LC Activities in the Global Development Plan and Global Development Budget.

5.4 Sanofi Step-In Right under Global Development Plan. In the event that (a) Sanofi provides written notice to Fulcrum that (i) Sanofi reasonably believes Fulcrum is in material breach of or Material Delay with respect to its obligations under the Global Development Plan as a whole (which notice shall describe in reasonable detail reasons and facts in support of such belief), and (ii) Fulcrum fails to cure such breach or delay (or provides reasonably satisfactory evidence showing that Fulcrum is not in such breach or delay) within [***] from the date of Sanofi’s notice of such breach or delay, or (b) [***], then Sanofi may elect by written notice to Fulcrum to assume the relevant activities originally assigned to Fulcrum under the Global Development Plan (the “

---

Step-In Activities”). In such case, the Parties will coordinate on transfer activities necessary or reasonably useful to enable Sanofi to assume such Step-In Activities (with the reasonable External Costs of such transfer activities to be borne by Fulcrum), including:

5.4.1 to the extent in Fulcrum’s possession, transferring any quantities of Licensed Compound or Licensed Product, and Fulcrum Materials, as needed,

5.4.2 to the extent in possession of any Affiliates or subcontractors acting on behalf of Fulcrum under this Agreement as of the Effective Date or during the Term, directing such Affiliates or subcontractors to transfer any quantities of Licensed Compound or Licensed Product, and Fulcrum Materials, as needed, and

5.4.3 making available to Sanofi copies of all Regulatory Submissions and all information, data or other Know-How Controlled by Fulcrum not already provided to Sanofi that would enable Sanofi or its designee to perform such Step-In Activities.

In the event that Sanofi elects the step-in remedy pursuant to this Section 5.4 (Sanofi Step-In Right under Global Development Plan), then such remedy will be Sanofi’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to the applicable material breach or Material Delay that gave rise to Sanofi’s right to elect such remedy, except that amounts incurred by Sanofi or its Affiliates in connection with such Step-In Activities shall be subject to cost sharing in accordance with Section 5.7 (Development Cost Sharing) to the extent such amounts are consistent with the then-current Global Development Budget for such Step-In Activities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any material breach by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ as a result of a Force Majeure Event will not trigger Sanofi’s step-in remedy under this Section 5.4 (Sanofi Step-In Right under Global Development Plan). For the purposes of Collaboration Technology ownership under this Agreement, all Collaboration Technology solely invented, developed or generated by or behalf of Sanofi or its Affiliates due to its exercise of the step-in right under this Section 5.4 (Sanofi Step-In Right under Global Development Plan) shall be owned by Sanofi, subject to Section 2.2 (License Grants to Fulcrum).

During the Term, upon at least [***] prior written notice, each Party agrees to permit such records to be open during regular business hours for examination by an independent, nationally-recognized certified public accountant selected by the auditing Party at the auditing Party’s expense and reasonably acceptable to the audited Party (the “Auditor”) for the sole purpose of verifying the accuracy of the financial reports furnished by the audited Party pursuant to this Agreement or of any payments made, or required to be made, by the audited Party pursuant to this Section 9.7 (Financial Records and Audits); provided that (a) the Auditor is subject to written obligations of confidentiality and non-use applicable to each Party’s Confidential Information that are at least as stringent as those

---

set forth in Article 12 (Confidentiality) and that limit the disclosure and use of such information by such Auditor to authorized representatives of the Parties and the purposes germane to this Section 9.7 (Financial Records and Audits), except that the term of such obligations will be customary for such recipient of Confidential Information, (b) such audit right will not apply to records beyond [***] from the end of the Calendar Year to which they pertain, and (c) such audit will not be (i) performed more frequently than once per [***] period, or (ii) repeated for any Calendar Year or with respect to the same set of records (in each case, unless a material discrepancy with respect to such records is discovered during a prior audit). The Auditor will report to the auditing Party only whether the particular amount being audited was accurate and, if not, the amount of any discrepancy and a reasonable summary of the reason for such discrepancy, and the Auditor will not report any other information to the auditing Party. The auditing Party will treat the results of the Auditor’s review of the audited Party’s records as Confidential Information of the audited Party subject to the terms of Article 12 (Confidentiality). In the event such audit leads to the discovery of a discrepancy to the auditing Party’s detriment, the audited Party will pay any amounts shown to be owed to the auditing Party but unpaid within [***] after the Auditor’s report. If such examination of records reveals any overpayment by a Party, then the other Party will credit the amount overpaid against future amounts due to the other Party by the overpaying Party. The auditing Party will bear the full cost of such audit unless such audit reveals an underpayment by the audited Party of more than [***] of the amount actually due for the time period being audited, in which case the audited Party will reimburse the auditing Party for the reasonable audit fees for such examination. Any undisputed overpayments by the audited Party revealed by an examination will be paid by the auditing Party within [***] of the auditing Party’s receipt of the applicable report.

9.8 Accounting Standards. If a Party changes its general accounting principles from its then-current Accounting Standard (e.g., from GAAP to IFRS) at any time during the Term, then at least [***] prior to adopting such change in principles, such Party will provide written notice to the other Party of such change. A Party may not change its general accounting principles to any accounting standard other than GAAP or IFRS without the prior written approval of the other Party.

9.9 Method of Payment; Exchange Rate. All payments to be made by Sanofi to Fulcrum or Fulcrum to Sanofi under this Agreement will be made in Dollars by electronic funds transfer in immediately available funds to a bank account designated in writing by Fulcrum or Sanofi, as applicable. Conversion of Net Sales recorded in local currencies will be converted to Dollars in a manner consistent with the Accounting Standard and the normal practices used by the Party owing or making a payment under this Agreement to prepare its audited financial statements.

9.10 Blocked Payments. If by reason of Applicable Law in any country or jurisdiction, it becomes impossible or illegal for a Party to transfer, or have transferred on its behalf, payments owed the other Party hereunder, then such Party will promptly notify the other Party of the conditions preventing such transfer and use reasonable efforts to deposit such payments in Dollars. If, after using reasonable efforts, such Party is not able to deposit such payments in Dollars, then such payments will be deposited in local currency in the relevant country to the credit of the other Party in a recognized banking institution designated by the other Party or, if none is designated by the other Party within a period of [***], in a recognized banking institution selected by the transferring Party, as the case may be, and identified in a written notice given to the other Party.

9.11.1 Taxes on Income. Each Party will be solely responsible for the payment of any and all income Taxes levied on account of all payments it receives under this Agreement.

9.11.2 Withholding Tax. Any and all payments made pursuant to this Agreement will be paid without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. To the extent a Party is required by Applicable Law to deduct or withhold Taxes on any payment to the other Party (the “Withheld Amount”), such Party will remit such Withheld Amount to the proper Governmental Authority in a timely manner and promptly transmit to the other Party an official Tax certificate or other evidence of any withholding sufficient to enable the other Party to claim available credits for such Withheld Amount. The withholding Party will have the right to deduct such Withheld Amount from payment due to the other Party. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent such Withheld Amount is so withheld and remitted in accordance with this Section 9.11.2 (Withholding Tax), such Withheld Amount will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the other Party.

9.11.3 Tax Cooperation. The Parties agree to cooperate with one another in accordance with Applicable Law and use reasonable efforts to mitigate or reduce Tax withholding or similar obligations in respect of payments made by each Party to the other Party under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party will provide the other with any Tax forms and other information that may be reasonably necessary to reduce withholding based on an applicable treaty or otherwise, including a properly completed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8, as applicable, before a payment is made. If any Tax form or other information a Party previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, such Party will provide the other Party with an updated version of such form or certification or promptly notify the other Party in writing of its legal inability to do so. Each Party will provide the other Party with reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by Applicable Law, of withholding Taxes or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing such withholding Tax.

9.11.4 Changes in Domicile. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, including Section 9.11.2 (Withholding Tax), if as a result of a Party assigning, transferring, or conveying rights under this Agreement to an Affiliate or changing its domicile, additional Taxes become due that would not otherwise have been due hereunder with respect to payments under this Agreement, then such Party will be responsible for all such additional withholding Taxes.

9.12 Late Payments; Disputed Payments. Any undisputed payments or portions thereof due hereunder that are not paid on or before the date such payments are due under this Agreement will bear interest from the due date until the date of payment at a per-annum rate equal to the lesser of: (a) [***] above the [***] Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York; or (b) the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law. If a Party disputes an invoice or other payment obligation under this Agreement, then such Party will timely pay the undisputed amount of the invoice or other payment obligation, and the Parties will resolve such dispute in accordance with Article 15 (Dispute Resolution; Governing Law).

damages, judgments, expenses, or losses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, witness fees, damages, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement) arising therefrom (“Losses”) to the extent that the applicable Third Party Claims and such Losses arise out of (a) a breach by Fulcrum of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement, (b) the Exploitation of the Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products by or on behalf of Fulcrum or any of its Affiliates, licensees (not including Sanofi or its Affiliates, Sublicensees, or its subcontractors), Sublicensees, or subcontractors, (c) Fulcrum’s failure to undertake any recall or product withdrawal of a Licensed Product in the Fulcrum Territory in accordance with Section 6.11 (Recall, Withdrawal, or Field Alerts), (d) the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of any Fulcrum Indemnitee or (e) any violation of Applicable Law by Fulcrum, its Affiliates, Sublicensees or subcontractors in connection with the performance of its obligations or exercise of its rights under this Agreement.

assumed by the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice. Neither Party will have the obligation to indemnify the other Party in connection with any settlement made without the Indemnifying Party’s written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. The Indemnifying Party will not admit liability of the Indemnified Party or settle any Third Party Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume and conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim as provided above, (a) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim in any manner the Indemnified Party may deem reasonably appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), and (b) the Indemnified Party reserves any right it may have under this Article 13 (Indemnification) to obtain indemnification from the Indemnified Party. In the event that it is ultimately determined that the Indemnifying Party is not obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against the Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses and costs of suit) and any Losses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in its defense of the Third Party Claim. If the Parties cannot agree as to the application of Section 13.1 (Indemnification by Fulcrum) or Section 13.2 (Indemnification by Sanofi) as to any Third Party Claim, then, pending resolution of the dispute pursuant to Article 15 (Dispute Resolution; Governing Law), the Parties may conduct separate defenses of such Third Party Claim, with each Party retaining the right to claim indemnification from the other Party in accordance with Section 13.1 (Indemnification by Fulcrum) or Section 13.2 (Indemnification by Sanofi), as applicable, upon resolution of the underlying Third Party Claim. In each case, the Indemnified Party will reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and will make available to the Indemnifying Party all pertinent information under the control of the Indemnified Party, which information will be subject to Article 12 (Confidentiality).

13.4 Insurance. During the Term and for a period of [***] thereafter, each Party will, at its own expense, procure and maintain insurance, including product liability insurance (with a Third Party insurance company with a current A.M. Best rating of A- or equivalent or higher, or solely with respect to Sanofi through a program of self-insurance), which insurance will be adequate to cover its obligations hereunder. Such insurance coverage will in no event be less than [***] per loss occurrence and [***] in the aggregate. It is understood that such insurance will not be construed to create a limit of either Party’s liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under this Article 13 (Indemnification). Each Party will provide the other Party with written evidence of such insurance upon request. Each Party will provide the other Party with written notice at least [***] prior to the expiration, cancellation, nonrenewal, or material change in such insurance that materially adversely affects the rights of the other Party hereunder. To the extent insurance policies are written on claims-made form, such Party shall maintain the insurance coverage for a term of [***] after the termination or expiration of this Agreement or as legally required to maintain insurance, or when the last Clinical Trial subject receives treatment in connection with the Clinical Trial, including any treatment received after Clinical Trial completion.

Article 14
TERM AND TERMINATION

14.1 Term. The term of this Agreement will begin on the Effective Date and, unless earlier terminated in accordance with this Article 14 (Term and Termination), will continue, on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and country-by-country basis until the expiration of the last Royalty Term for such Licensed Product (the “Term”). Upon expiration of this Agreement with respect to a Licensed

---

Product, the licenses granted in such country pursuant to Section 2.1 (License Grant to Sanofi) to Sanofi for such Licensed Product shall be exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, fully paid-up and free of royalties or other payment obligations and, subject to the foregoing and except as set forth in Section 14.9 (Survival; Accrued Rights), all rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement with respect to such Licensed Products in such country shall cease.

14.2 Termination for Material Breach.

14.2.1 Material Breach. If either Party believes in good faith that the other is in material breach of this Agreement, then the non-breaching Party may deliver notice of such material breach to the other Party identifying the material breach in reasonable detail and a proposed remedy (“Breach Notification”). For any material breach arising from a failure to make a payment set forth in this Agreement, the allegedly breaching Party will have [***] from the receipt of the applicable Breach Notification to cure such material breach. For all material breaches other than a failure to make a payment as set forth in this Agreement, the allegedly breaching Party will have [***] from the date of the Breach Notification to cure such material breach. If the Party receiving notice of a material breach fails to cure that material breach within the applicable period set forth above, then the Party originally delivering the Breach Notification may terminate this Agreement in its entirety effective on written notice of termination to the other Party. In the event that a material breach is curable but the allegedly breaching Party demonstrates that it cannot be reasonably cured within the applicable cure period despite its diligent efforts, then the allegedly breaching Party will be allowed to continue to cure such material breach using diligent efforts for another [***] or a longer period if mutually agreed upon by the Parties.

14.2.2 Disagreement as to Material Breach. Notwithstanding Section 14.2.1 (Material Breach), if the Parties, reasonably and in good faith, disagree as to whether there has been a material breach of this Agreement, then: (a) the Party that disputes whether there has been a material breach may contest the allegation by referring such matter, within the cure period applicable to such alleged material breach, for resolution in accordance with Article 15 (Dispute Resolution; Governing Law); (b) the relevant cure period with respect to such alleged material breach will be tolled from the date on which the Party that disputes whether there has been a material breach notifies the other Party of such dispute and through the resolution of such dispute in accordance with Article 15 (Dispute Resolution; Governing Law); and (c) subject to Section 16.6 (Force Majeure), during the pendency of such dispute, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement will remain in effect and the Parties will continue to perform all of their respective obligations hereunder.

14.3 Termination by Sanofi for Convenience. Sanofi will have the right to terminate the Agreement in its entirety or on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product or (a) country-by-country basis with respect to the Sanofi Major Countries or (b) Region-by-Region basis with respect to all other countries that are not Sanofi Major Countries (each such terminated jurisdiction, a “Terminated Region” and in the event of termination of this Agreement in its entirety, all countries in the Sanofi Territory will be Terminated Regions) at any time during the Term upon [***] prior written notice; provided that, if Sanofi terminates the Agreement under this Section 14.3 (Termination by Sanofi for Convenience) in all of the Sanofi Major Countries, European Region, the Asian Region, and the Latin American Region, then this Agreement will automatically terminate in its entirety.

14.4 Termination by Sanofi for Safety. Sanofi may terminate this Agreement for safety concerns with respect to a Licensed Product that are [***]: (a) in part on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis, where the safety concerns are with respect to a particular Licensed Product or (b) in its

---

entirety, where the safety concerns are with respect to all Licensed Products, in each case ((a) or (b)), upon [***] prior written notice to Fulcrum. Sanofi will include a summary of such safety concerns in such notice of termination.

14.5 Termination by Fulcrum for Sanofi’s Cessation of Development and Commercialization.

14.5.1 Shelving Event. If, at any time during the period commencing on the earlier of the date of the Positive Data Readout for the Global Phase 3 REACH Study and Regulatory Approval for a Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory and ending on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product in a Sanofi Major Country there is a consecutive [***] period during which (a) Sanofi and its Affiliates do not conduct any bona fide material Development or Commercialization activities with respect to any Licensed Compound or Licensed Product anywhere in the Territory for the benefit of the Sanofi Territory or (b) Sanofi has instituted and maintained (per Sanofi’s internal policies) a hold on conducting all Development and Commercialization activities for Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products in the Territory, and such foregoing circumstances ((a) and (b)) are not:

(i) by written agreement of the Parties,

(ii) a result of any action or inaction by Fulcrum, its Affiliates or its or their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, successors or assigns for which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has an obligation to indemnify Sanofi under Section 13.1 (Indemnification by Fulcrum),

(iii) a result of Sanofi’s reasonable response to guidance from or action or inaction by a Regulatory Authority or Governmental Authority (such as a clinical hold, recall or withdrawal),

(iv) a result of Sanofi’s internal regulatory decision-makers recommending, in accordance with Sanofi’s internal policies, the cessation of Development or Commercialization activities with respect to a Licensed Compound or Licensed Product due to material concerns regarding the benefit:risk ratio of such Licensed Compound or Licensed Product,

(v) a failure beyond the reasonable control of Sanofi or its Affiliates to secure adequate supply of such Licensed Compound or Licensed Product, or

(vi) as a result, in whole or in part, of a Force Majeure Event or any claim brought by a Third Party against Sanofi, its Affiliate or Sublicensee that, through the grant of injunctive relief to a Third Party, prevents the continued conduct of Development or Commercialization activities with respect to a Licensed Compound or Licensed Product;

provided that, in the case of the foregoing clauses (iii), (iv) (v) and (vi), Sanofi keeps Fulcrum reasonably apprised of the circumstance and is working in good faith to overcome or remedy the underlying circumstance that serves as the basis of such exclusion (such circumstances described in the foregoing clauses ((a) and (b)), subject to the exclusions set forth in the foregoing clauses ((i)-(vi)), a “Shelving Event”), then Fulcrum will notify Sanofi in writing upon becoming aware of such Shelving Event having occurred. Within [***] following Sanofi’s receipt of notice from Fulcrum regarding the existence of a

---

Shelving Event, the Parties shall meet (including via teleconference or videoconference) to discuss the nature and circumstances surrounding any such Shelving Event. Subject to Section 14.5.2 (Disagreement as to Shelving Event), Sanofi shall have [***] from such meeting date to cure such Shelving Event. If Sanofi fails to cure such Shelving Event within such [***] period or maintain such cure for at least [***], then Fulcrum may, at its election, terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon [***] prior written notice to Sanofi. For clarity, a Shelving Event can happen multiple times if this Agreement is not terminated due to a previous Shelving Event.

14.5.2 Disagreement as to Shelving Event. Notwithstanding Section 14.5.1 (Shelving Event), if the Parties in good faith disagree as to whether a Shelving Event has occurred: (a) Sanofi may contest such allegation by referring such matter, within [***] following the Parties’ meeting to discuss the nature and circumstances surrounding such Shelving Event in accordance with Section 14.5.1 (Shelving Event), for resolution in accordance with Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution); (b) the [***] cure period with respect to such alleged Shelving Event will be tolled from the date on which Sanofi notifies Fulcrum of such dispute through the resolution of such dispute in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement; and (c) subject to Section 16.6 (Force Majeure), during the pendency of such dispute, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement will remain in effect and the Parties will continue to perform all of their respective obligations hereunder.

14.6 Termination for Insolvency.

14.6.1 Termination Right. Each Party will have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon delivery of written notice to the other Party if (a) such other Party files in any court or agency pursuant to the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Code”) or any similar bankruptcy or insolvency law, foreign or domestic, (b) such other Party is served with a petition against it under the Code or any similar bankruptcy or insolvency law and such petition has not been discharged or dismissed within [***] of its filing, (c) such other Party makes an assignment for the benefit of, or an arrangement or composition generally with, its creditors, (d) such other Party appoints an examiner of or a receiver or trustee over all or substantially all of its property or suffers the appointment of such party that is not discharged within [***] after such filing or appointment, (e) such other Party proposes a written agreement of composition or extension of its debts, (f) such other Party proposes or is a party to any dissolution, liquidation or winding up or (g) such other Party admits in writing its inability generally to meet its obligations as they fall due in the ordinary course.

14.6.2 Section 365(n) Rights. For purposes of Section 365(n) of the Code and any similar Applicable Law, foreign or domestic, all rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to any Section of this Agreement are rights to “intellectual property” (as defined in Section 101(35A) of the Code). The Parties agree that the licensee of such rights under this Agreement will retain and may fully exercise all of its protections, rights and elections under the Code and any similar laws in any other country. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties intend and agree that any sale of the licensor’s assets under Section 363 of the Code will be subject to the licensee’s rights under Section 365(n) of the Code, that the licensee cannot be compelled to accept a money satisfaction of its interests in the intellectual property licensed pursuant to this Agreement and that any such sale therefore may not be made to a purchaser “free and clear” of the licensee’s rights under this Agreement and Section 365(n) of the Code without the express, contemporaneous consent of the licensee. Further, each Party agrees and acknowledges that all payments by the licensee to the licensor hereunder, other than the Royalty Payments pursuant to Section

---

9.3.1 (Royalty Payments), do not constitute royalties within the meaning of Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code or relate to licenses of intellectual property hereunder. The licensor will, during the Term, create and maintain current copies or, if not amenable to copying, detailed descriptions or other appropriate embodiments, to the extent feasible, of all such intellectual property. Each Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that “embodiments” of intellectual property within the meaning of Section 365(n) of the Code include copies of research data, laboratory samples, product samples and inventory, formulas, laboratory notes and notebooks, pre-clinical research data and results, tangible Know-How and rights of access or reference, in each case, that relate to such intellectual property. If (a) a case under the Code is commenced by or against the licensor, (b) this Agreement is rejected as provided in the Code and (c) the licensee elects to retain its rights hereunder as provided in Section 365(n) of the Code, then the licensor (in any capacity, including debtor-in-possession) and its successors and assigns (including a trustee) will: (i) provide to the licensee all such intellectual property (including all embodiments thereof) held by the licensor and such successors and assigns, or otherwise available to them, immediately upon the licensee’s written request; and (ii) not interfere with the licensee’s rights under this Agreement, or any agreement supplemental hereto, to such intellectual property (including such embodiments), including any right to obtain such intellectual property (or such embodiments) from another entity, to the extent provided in Section 365(n) of the Code. Whenever the licensor or any of its successors or assigns provides to the licensee any of the intellectual property licensed hereunder (or any embodiment thereof) pursuant to this Section 14.6.2 (Section 365(n) Rights), the licensee will have the right to perform the licensor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such intellectual property, but neither such provision nor such performance by the licensee will release the licensor from liability resulting from rejection of the license or the failure to perform such obligations. The provisions of this Section 14.6.2 (Section 365(n) Rights) are without prejudice to any rights the licensee may have arising under the Code, the laws of other jurisdictions governing insolvency and bankruptcy or other Applicable Law. The Parties agree that they intend the rights, powers and remedies set forth in this Section 14.6.2 (Section 365(n) Rights), including: (a) the licensee’s right of access to any intellectual property (including all embodiments thereof) of the licensor, or any Third Party with whom the licensor contracts to perform an obligation of such licensor under this Agreement which is necessary for the Development, Manufacture, Commercialization or other Exploitation of a Licensed Product; (b) the right to contract directly with any Third Party described in clause (a) of this Section 14.6.2 (Section 365(n) Rights) to complete the contracted work; and (c) the right to cure any breach of or default under any such agreement with a Third Party and set off the costs thereof against amounts payable to the licensor under this Agreement, in each case ((a) through (c)): (i) to extend to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, including for purposes of the Code and any similar laws in any other country; (ii) to be enforceable; and (iii) to be additional to and not in substitution for any and all other rights, powers and remedies now or hereafter existing at law or in equity (including pursuant to the Code and any similar laws in any other country).

14.7 Full Force and Effect During Notice Period. This Agreement will remain in full force and effect until the expiration of the applicable termination notice period. For clarity, if Sanofi or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees achieve any Milestone Events during the termination notice period, then the corresponding Milestone Payment is accrued and Sanofi will remain responsible for the payment of such Milestone Payment even if the due date of such Milestone Payment occurs after the effective date of the termination.

14.8 Effects of Termination. In the event of any termination of this Agreement the following will apply with respect to the Terminated Products; provided that in the event of termination by Sanofi pursuant to Section 14.6 (Termination for Insolvency), only Section 14.8.4 (Inventory), Section 14.8.5 (Clinical Trials), Section 14.8.8 (Termination of Rights), and Section 14.8.9 (Return of Confidential Information) shall apply to such termination:

14.8.1 Reversion.

(a) License Grant.

(i) Fulcrum will have, and Sanofi hereby grants to Fulcrum, effective upon such termination, a worldwide, exclusive, perpetual, and sublicensable (through multiple tiers) license under (1) all Sanofi Background Technology that is actually used in the Reversion Products in the Terminated Regions as of the effective date of termination or otherwise Covers the Reversion Product as it was being Exploited in the Terminated Region as of the effective date of termination (whether in the Global Development Plan or Sanofi Independent Development Plan) and (2) Sanofi’s interest in the Collaboration Technology that is necessary or reasonably useful for the Exploitation of the Reversion Products in the Terminated Regions, in each case (1) and (2), other than any Sanofi Manufacturing Technology that is not necessary to perform the Manufacturing process transferred under Section 14.8.1(b) (Manufacturing Technology Transfer) (“Sanofi Reversion Technology”) solely to Exploit the Reversion Products in the Terminated Regions (the “Reversion License”), provided, that if this Agreement is terminated by Sanofi pursuant to Section 14.4 (Termination by Sanofi for Safety), (A) the Sanofi Reversion Technology shall not include any Patent Rights or Know-How, the practice of which was, or was reasonably believed to be, causally related to the applicable safety concern, and (B) the Reversion License shall not include the right to Exploit any Licensed Product in the manner that was, or was reasonably believed to be, causally related to the applicable safety concern.

(ii) The Reversion License will be (1) royalty-free if this Agreement is terminated by Fulcrum pursuant to Section 14.2 (Termination for Material Breach) and (2) royalty-bearing in all other events of termination, on financial terms reflecting reasonable financial compensation and fair market value of such license, determined in accordance with customary industry practice. If, in the event this Agreement is terminated by Sanofi pursuant to Section 14.2 (Termination for Material Breach), Section 14.3 (Termination by Sanofi for Convenience) or Section 14.4 (Termination by Sanofi for Safety) or by Fulcrum pursuant to Section 14.5 (Termination by Fulcrum for Sanofi’s Cessation of Development and Commercialization), and the Parties cannot agree on the financial terms of such license within a period of [***] of the Reversion Notice, then such dispute shall be referred to the Executive Officers of the Parties for resolution. If the Executive Officers do not fully resolve such dispute within [***] (or a later

---

date agreed to by each of the Parties) of the dispute being referred to them then the financial terms of such license shall be decided by baseball arbitration pursuant to the terms set forth on Schedule 14.8.1(a) (Baseball Arbitration Terms).

(b) Manufacturing Technology Transfer. At Fulcrum’s request, Sanofi will promptly, at Sanofi’s discretion, (i) transfer the last Manufacturing process for the Reversion Product that may contain proprietary Manufacturing Know-How of Sanofi or its Affiliates (determined at Sanofi’s discretion) to a CMO of Sanofi’s choice and reasonably acceptable to Fulcrum, provided that Sanofi may exclude proprietary Know-How embedded in the existing Manufacturing process from direct transfer to Fulcrum and such CMO agrees to keep such Manufacturing process confidential and not transfer such proprietary Know-How directly or indirectly to Fulcrum; (ii) transfer to Fulcrum or to a CMO mutually agreed by the Parties (such mutual agreement of Sanofi not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the last Manufacturing process for the Reversion Product used by Sanofi that does not include proprietary Manufacturing Know-How of Sanofi or its Affiliates (determined at Sanofi’s discretion); or (iii) at Sanofi’s sole cost use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to develop (by itself or through a CMO reasonably acceptable to Fulcrum, such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), an alternative Manufacturing process for the Reversion Product that excludes proprietary Manufacturing Know-How of Sanofi or its Affiliates, and to conduct a technology transfer of such alternative process to Fulcrum or a CMO mutually agreed by the Parties (such mutual agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Such Manufacturing process technology transfer, in such cases ((i)-(iii)), will be at Fulcrum’s sole cost pursuant to a budget to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties unless the applicable termination of this Agreement is by Fulcrum pursuant to Section 14.2 (Termination for Material Breach) or by Sanofi pursuant to Section 14.3 (Termination by Sanofi for Convenience), in which case it shall be at Sanofi’s sole cost pursuant to a budget to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties. Sanofi shall, and where applicable, cause its Affiliates or CMOs to supply Reversion Product in bulk finished form, to Fulcrum pursuant to the terms of a supply agreement (to be promptly negotiated by the Parties on commercially reasonable terms) on a cost plus [***] basis, for a period from the effective date of such termination until such time as Sanofi shall have performed all of its obligations pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii), as applicable; provided that, if Sanofi elects to develop an alternative Manufacturing process for the Reversion Product that excludes proprietary Manufacturing Know-How of Sanofi or its Affiliates, then, provided that Fulcrum uses Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain qualification to Manufacture the Reversion Product, Sanofi will continue to supply Fulcrum with Reversion Product in bulk finished form until Fulcrum or a CMO obtains such qualification to Manufacture the Reversion Product using such alternative Manufacturing process. In the event the Parties are unable to agree on either the budget for such Manufacturing process technology transfer, or the terms of such supply agreement, within [***] following Sanofi’s receipt of a request from Fulcrum to negotiate such budget or supply agreement (as applicable), then upon notice to Sanofi, such budget or the final terms of such supply agreement, as applicable, shall immediately be referred for resolution in accordance with Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution).

Article 15
DISPUTE RESOLUTION; GOVERNING LAW

15.1 Dispute Resolution.

15.1.1 Each Party will ensure that an Executive Officer is designated for such Party at all times during the Term for dispute resolution purposes, and will promptly notify the other Party of any change in its designated Executive Officer. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, in the event of a dispute arising under, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement (except for disputes arising at the JSC, which will be resolved in accordance with Section 3.8 (Resolution of Committee Disputes)), the Alliance Manager of the Party claiming that such dispute exists will give notice in writing (a “Notice of Dispute”) to the other Party of the nature of the dispute. For [***] after receipt of such Notice of Dispute, the Parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the dispute (“EO Dispute Resolution Period”), and within [***] following receipt of a Notice of Dispute, the Executive Officers will meet (including via teleconference) at a mutually agreed upon time and location for discussion and potential resolution. After the EO Dispute Resolution Period, if the Party that issued the Notice of Dispute considers the dispute to be unresolved, then such Party

---

may give a written notice to the other Party (a “Notice of Arbitration”) of the first Party’s intent to arbitrate such dispute. If the Party that issued the Notice of Dispute fails to issue a Notice of Arbitration within [***] after the expiration of the EO Dispute Resolution Period, then such dispute will be deemed to have been resolved under this Section 15.1.1 (Dispute Resolution).

15.1.2 Any dispute (other than any dispute described in Section 15.2 (Intellectual Property Disputes) below) unresolved under Section 15.1.1 (Dispute Resolution) shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration administered by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”) pursuant to JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect, as modified in this Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution) (the “JAMS Rules”), except to the extent such JAMS Rules are inconsistent with this Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution) in which case, this Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution) will control (including with regard to any limitations of liability or forms of relief).

15.1.3 The applicable dispute will be resolved by final and binding arbitration before a single arbitrator mutually agreed by the Parties; provided, however, that if the Parties cannot agree within [***] after receipt of a notice to arbitrate, then the arbitrator will be chosen in accordance with JAMS Rule 15 (the “Arbitrator”). The Arbitrator (i) will not be from academia, (ii) will be a qualified attorney in private practice or a retired judge with experience in complex commercial disputes, (iii) will be professionally fluent in English, (iv) will have not less than [***] of experience in the biotechnology or pharmaceutical industry and subject matter expertise with respect to the matter subject to arbitration, and (v) will have educational training and industry experience sufficient to demonstrate a reasonable level of scientific, financial, medical and industry knowledge relevant to the particular dispute. The Arbitrator will agree to a fixed fee of [***] or less; if the Arbitrator will not agree to such amount, then either Party will have the right to cause a different Arbitrator to be selected.

15.1.4 Discovery will be limited to [***] custodial document productions per side, and no more than [***] discovery depositions may be conducted per side.

15.1.5 Direct testimony per fact witness will not exceed [***] hours, and cross examination of any fact witness will not exceed [***].

15.1.6 The JAMS Rules will be modified to delete paragraphs 16.2(b) and 16.2(e) of such procedures as in effect on the Effective Date, and the timelines will be modified to provide that: (i) the discovery cutoff for percipient discovery will not exceed [***] after the preliminary conference, (ii) the discovery cutoff for expert discovery will not exceed [***] after the preliminary conference and (iii) the hearing will commence within [***] after the cutoff for expert discovery and will be concluded within [***] after it is commenced.

15.1.7 The Arbitrator will, within [***] after the conclusion of the hearing, issue a written award and statement of decision describing the material facts and the grounds for the conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The Arbitrator will be authorized to award compensatory damages, but will not be authorized to reform, modify or materially change this Agreement. The proceedings and decisions of the Arbitrator will be confidential, final and binding on the Parties, and judgment upon the award of the Arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. For clarity, neither Party will have any right to appeal the decisions of the Arbitrator.

---

15.1.8 Each Party will bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) relating to the arbitration proceeding, except that the fees of the Arbitrator and other related costs of the arbitration will be shared equally by the Parties, unless the Arbitrator determines that a Party has incurred unreasonable expenses due to vexatious or bad faith positions taken by the other Party, in which event the Arbitrator may make an award of all or any portion of such expenses (including legal fees and expenses) so incurred.

15.1.9 The Arbitrator will be required to render the decision in writing that is no more than [***] pages. The Arbitrator will comply with, and the award will be limited by, any express provisions of this Agreement relating to damages or the limitation thereof. The Arbitrator will not have the power to award punitive damages under this Agreement regardless of whether any such damages are contained in a proposal, and such award is expressly prohibited.

15.1.10 Unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing, during the period of time that any arbitration proceeding is pending under this Agreement: (i) the Parties will continue to comply with all those terms and provisions of this Agreement that are not the subject of the pending arbitration proceeding; (ii) in the event the arbitration proceeding concerns a potential material breach under Section 14.2 (Termination for Material Breach), the applicable cure period will be stayed until the conclusion of the proceedings under this Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution); and (iii) in the event that the subject of the dispute relates to the exercise by a Party of a termination right hereunder, including in the case of a material breach of this Agreement, the effectiveness of such termination will be stayed until the conclusion of the proceedings under this Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution). All arbitration proceedings and decisions of the Arbitrator under this Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution) will be deemed Confidential Information of both Parties under Article 12 (Confidentiality).

15.1.11 The arbitration proceedings will take place in New York City, New York, in the English language.

15.1.12 Nothing in this Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution) will preclude either Party from seeking equitable relief or interim or provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim equitable relief, concerning a dispute either prior to or during any arbitration if necessary to protect the interests of such Party or to preserve the status quo pending the arbitration proceeding.

15.1.13 In the event of a dispute regarding any payments owing under this Agreement, all undisputed amounts will be paid promptly when due and the balance, if any, promptly after resolution of the dispute.

15.2 Intellectual Property Disputes. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if a dispute arises under this Agreement with respect to the validity, scope, enforceability, or ownership of any Patent Right or other intellectual property rights, and such dispute is not resolved in accordance with Section 3.8.1 (Referral to Executive Officers), then such dispute will be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction in the jurisdiction in which such Patent Right or other intellectual property right was granted or arose.

15.3 Equitable Remedies. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Parties each stipulate and agree that (a) the other Party’s Confidential Information includes highly sensitive trade secret information such that a breach of Article 12 (Confidentiality) by a Party will cause irrevocable harm for which monetary damages would not provide a sufficient

---

remedy; and (b) in such case of such breach of Article 12 (Confidentiality), the non-breaching Party will be entitled to equitable relief, including specific performance, temporary or permanent restraining orders, preliminary injunction, permanent injunction, or other equitable relief without the posting of any bond or other security, from any court of competent jurisdiction. In addition, and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, in the event of any other actual or threatened breach hereunder, the aggrieved Party may seek equitable relief (including specific performance, temporary or permanent restraining orders, or other equitable relief) from any court of competent jurisdiction without first submitting to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article 15 (Dispute Resolution; Governing Law).

15.4 Governing Law; English Language. This Agreement and all amendments, modifications, alterations, or supplements hereto, and the rights of the Parties, will be construed under and governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States, exclusive of its conflicts of laws principles. The provisions of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply to this Agreement or any subject matter hereof. This Agreement has been prepared in the English language and the English language will control its interpretation. All consents, notices, reports, and other written documents to be delivered or provided by a Party under this Agreement will be in the English language, and in the event of any conflict between the provisions of any document and the English language translation thereof, the terms of the English language translation will control.

15.5 Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED, THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE, AND COVENANT THAT THEY WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT, OR OTHERWISE), ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY OF THEM MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY, AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHICH WILL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

Fulcrum Therapeutics Enter into a Collaboration and License Agreement with Sanofi for the Development and Commercialization of Losmapimod in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy

― Sanofi receives exclusive rights to commercialize losmapimod in all territories outside the U.S.; Fulcrum retains full U.S. commercialization rights―

 

―Fulcrum will receive an upfront payment of $80.0 million, and is eligible to receive $975.0 million in potential milestones, plus royalties on ex-U.S. product sales; parties will share future global development costs 50:50―

 

― Conference call and webcast scheduled for 8:00 a.m. ET today to discuss the collaboration and other recent corporate developments, in conjunction with first the quarter 2024 financial results―

 

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., – May 13, 2024 – Fulcrum Therapeutics, Inc.® (Fulcrum) (Nasdaq: FULC), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing small molecules to improve the lives of patients with genetically defined rare diseases, today announced that it has entered into a collaboration and license agreement with Sanofi (Nasdaq: SNY) for the development and commercialization of losmapimod, an oral small molecule being investigated for the treatment of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). Under the collaboration and license agreement, Sanofi obtains exclusive commercialization rights for losmapimod outside of the U.S.

 

The collaboration and license agreement combines Fulcrum’s expertise in FSHD with Sanofi’s global reach and unparalleled commitment to treating patients with rare diseases. Losmapimod is currently being evaluated in a global Phase 3 clinical trial for the treatment of FSHD, a chronic and progressive genetic muscular disorder that is characterized by significant muscle cell death and fat infiltration into muscle tissue. Results from ReDUX4, the Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating losmapimod for the treatment of FSHD, demonstrated a slowing of disease progression and improved muscle health. Fulcrum expects to report topline data from REACH, the global Phase 3 clinical trial, in the fourth quarter of 2024. Following positive data from the Phase 3 trial, Fulcrum and Sanofi plan to submit marketing applications in the U.S., Europe, Japan, and other geographies.

 

“Sanofi is a proven leader in developing therapeutics for rare neuromuscular diseases and is the ideal partner to maximize the opportunity and reach of losmapimod outside the U.S.,” said ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s president and chief executive officer. “This deal aligns with our core strategy, allowing Fulcrum to remain focused on preparations for commercialization of losmapimod in the U.S., while leveraging Sanofi’s exceptional global commercial capabilities and established infrastructure in key markets around the world. We are excited about the potential to provide the first approved treatment for FSHD patients, and we look forward to working with Sanofi to bring losmapimod to patients globally.”

“This partnership provides an exciting opportunity to expand Sanofi’s rare disease franchise and deliver the first approved FSHD treatment to patients with the strength and reach of our commercial organization,” said Burcu Eryilmaz, Sanofi’s Global Head of Rare Diseases “Losmapimod has shown meaningful clinical benefits that underscore the disease-modifying potential and opportunity to address the high unmet need for a safe and effective drug that slows disease progression. With a deep commitment to bringing hope and new treatment options to patients, we look forward to working closely with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ as losmapimod advances through late-stage development.”

 

Per the terms of the agreement, Fulcrum will receive an upfront payment of $80.0 million and is eligible to receive up to an additional $975.0 million in specified regulatory and sales-based milestones, along with tiered escalating royalties starting in the low-teens on annual net sales of losmapimod outside the U.S. In addition, Fulcrum and Sanofi will equally share future global development costs.

About Losmapimod

Losmapimod is a selective p38α/β mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitor. Fulcrum exclusively in-licensed losmapimod from GSK following Fulcrum’s discovery of the role of p38α/β inhibitors in the reduction of DUX4 expression and an extensive review of known compounds. Results reported from the Phase 2 ReDUX4 trial demonstrated a slowing of disease progression and improved function, including positive impacts on upper extremity strength and functional measures supporting losmapimod’s potential to be a transformative therapy for the treatment of FSHD. Although losmapimod had never previously been explored in muscular dystrophies, it had been evaluated in more than 3,600 subjects in clinical trials across multiple other indications, with no safety signals attributed to losmapimod. Losmapimod has been granted U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Fast Track designation and Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of FSHD. Losmapimod is currently being evaluated in a Phase 3 multi-center randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 48-week parallel-group study in people with FSHD (NCT05397470).

 

About FSHD

FSHD is a serious, rare, progressive and debilitating disease for which there are no approved treatments. It is characterized by fat infiltration of skeletal muscle leading to muscular atrophy involving primarily the face, scapula and shoulders, upper arms, and abdomen. Impact on patients includes profound decreases in the ability to perform activities of daily living, loss of upper limb function, loss of mobility and independence and chronic pain. FSHD is one of the most common forms of muscular dystrophy and has an estimated patient population of 30,000 in the United States alone.
