- A 4-week preliminary toxicity study in rat, OSE230 being administered twice weekly at 3-30-300 mg/kg. This study will be performed at ERBC (France). PK and ADA analyses on those rats will be performed to investigate the potential impact of ADA on PK in rat (analyses will be done at OSE Immunotherapeutics, Nantes).
- A 13-week GLP toxicity study followed by a 6-week recovery period in rat. This study will be performed at ERBC (France).
#NAME?
- Additional 13-week GLP toxicity study followed by a 6-week recovery period in cynomolgus monkey, OSE230 being administered weekly at 300 mg/kg. This study will be performed at ERBC (France).

PK and ADA methods: - Development of PK and ADA methods in mouse up to 300mg/kg (not validated), developed for sample analysis of the 4-week preliminary study in mouse completed at OSE Immunotherapeutics (Nantes).
- Development of PK and ADA methods in rat up to 300 mg/kg (not validated), developed for sample analysis of the 4-week preliminary study in rat completed at OSE Immunotherapeutics (Nantes).

- On skin biopsies (after in vivo challenge with LPS in Healthy Volunteers): IHC (3 panels: neutrophils, macrophages and NETosis (e.g. CITH3)). Validation needed. The panel should be discussed with the vendor depending on their routine staining and additional markers we want to explore. The setup of the method will be ...
RNA seq (3 gene expression signatures product-related available in human on whole blood, neutrophils and macrophages; 3 gene expression signatures linked to the mechanism of action: IL10 signatures, M1-M2 signatures and neutrophils activation). Those signatures were identified in studies performed in monkeys (internal ...

- On skin exudates from blister suctions (after LPS challenge in Healthy Volunteers): NETosis (validation needed). Those methods are already developed and validated by Volition (Belgium) in the plasma, but never tested in the exudates therefore requiring a pre-validation step.
Multiplex cytokines (no validation needed). Those methods are developed by OSE and could be performed by Active Biomarkers (France).
Vendor qualified explored CHDR (Netherlands); 2022 publication (Butters et al 2021 / CHDR LPS Challenge document).

- Analytical method transfer and partial validation of methods for Drug Product (DP) release (Catalent Limoges);
- Manufacturing and release (DP specifications available in the dataroom) of a GMP DP batch (Catalent Limoges);
- Stability studies for the GMP DP batch (Catalent Limoges);
- Compatibility & In-use stability study (Catalent Limoges); study design to be defined depending on clinical study use;
- Manufacturing and release of a placebo batch (Catalent Limoges).
Workplan Table for OSE230
All assays/Third Party Providers cited below are only proposals and can be subject to discussion with AbbVie.
Any tech transfer to a different CRO/CMO/facility than proposed by OSE could impact overall timelines (of note, today DP manufacturing is planned at Catalent Limoges and in case of a transfer to a US site, duration and cost have not been evaluated by OSE).
Reports and datasets supporting each work package will be delivered to AbbVie (or caused to be delivered to AbbVie) by OSE:
