Immunology
Dupixent (dupilumab)
•The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Dupixent as an add-on maintenance treatment of adults with inadequately controlled chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and an eosinophilic phenotype. Dupixent is the first biologic medicine approved in the US to treat these patients. The National Medical Products Administration in China approved Dupixent as an add-on maintenance treatment for adults with uncontrolled COPD characterized by raised blood eosinophils. Specifically, the approval covers patients already on a combination of an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS), a long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA) and a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), or on a combination of a LABA and a LAMA if ICS is not appropriate. Dupixent for the treatment of COPD has now been approved in more than 30 countries worldwide, including the 27 countries in the EU.
•The FDA approved Dupixent as an add-on maintenance treatment for adolescent patients aged 12 to 17 years with inadequately controlled chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). This approval expands the initial FDA approval in CRSwNP from June 2019 for patients aged 18 years and older. The FDA evaluated Dupixent for this expanded indication under a priority review.
•The European Medicines Agency (EMA)’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) adopted a positive opinion recommending the expanded approval of Dupixent in the EU for eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) in children down to one year of age. The recommendation is for children aged one to 11 years who weigh at least 15 kg and who are inadequately controlled by, intolerant to, or who are not candidates for conventional medicinal therapy, supported by the two-part (Part A and B) EoE KIDS phase 3 study (clinical study identifier: NCT04394351). The European Commission is expected to announce a final decision in the coming months. Dupixent is already approved in the EU for certain adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older with EoE.
•Dupixent’s confirmatory LIBERTY-CUPID Study C phase 3 study (clinical study identifier: NCT04180488) met the primary and key secondary endpoints for the treatment of patients with uncontrolled, biologic-naïve chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) receiving background therapy with antihistamines. CSU is a chronic skin condition that causes sudden and debilitating hives and persistent itch, which can impact quality of life. This positive study confirms results from Study A, the first phase 3 study of Dupixent in this setting. Earlier this year, Japan was the first country in the world to approve and launch Dupixent for adult and adolescent CSU patients based on the results from Study A. The indication is under review in the EU based on results from Study A and Study B (patients uncontrolled on standard-of-care H1 antihistamines and refractory to omalizumab), and the new Study C data will support regulatory resubmission in the US by the end of the year.
•The LIBERTY-CPUO-CHIC Study A phase 3 study (clinical study identifier: NCT05263206) evaluating the use of Dupixent in adults with uncontrolled and severe chronic pruritus of unknown origin (CPUO) did not achieve statistical significance in its primary itch responder endpoint (despite favorable numerical improvements), but showed nominally significant improvements in all other itch endpoints. The Dupixent phase 3 study program in CPUO consists of Study A and Study B. Study B is planned to initiate as a subsequent pivotal study.
6
•Dupixent’s pivotal LIBERTY-BP phase 3 study (clinical study identifier: NCT04206553) in bullous pemphigoid (BP) met the primary and all key secondary endpoints evaluating its use in adults with moderate-to-severe disease. Dupixent was previously granted orphan drug designation by the FDA for BP, which applies to medicines intended for the treatment of rare diseases that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the US. This study will support regulatory submissions around the world in the first half of 2025. BP is a chronic and relapsing disease, characterized by intense itch and blisters, reddening of the skin, and painful chronic lesions. The blisters and rash can form over much of the body and cause the skin to bleed and crust, resulting in patients being more prone to infection and affecting their daily functioning.
Rezurock (belumosudil) The EMA accepted for review the regulatory submission of Rezurock for the treatment of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), third line (3L). The EMA granted an orphan designation in 2019 for the treatment of cGVHD, and Rezurock, first approved by the FDA in 2021, is now approved in 14 other countries, including China, the UK and Canada.
amlitelimab (OX40L mAb)
•The amlitelimab proof-of concept TIDE-Asthma phase 2 study (clinical study identifier: NCT05421598) in moderate-to-severe asthma has a 60-week double-blind placebo-controlled period, in which patients are dosed once every four weeks during the initial 24 weeks and once every 12 weeks for the subsequent 36 weeks. Sanofi anticipates the internal data availability of top-line results for the full and completed 60-week treatment and follow-up period to move over the year-end and into H1 2025.
•The ASPIRION phase 2 study (clinical study identifier: NCT06557772) assessing efficacy and safety of subcutaneous injections of amlitelimab in adults with non-responsive celiac disease has commenced dosing its first patient.
lunsekimig (IL13xTSLP Nanobody® VHH)
A proof-of-concept phase 2 study (clinical study identifier: NCT06454240) assessing efficacy and safety of lunsekimig compared with placebo in adults with CRSwNP has commenced dosing its first patient.
Rare diseases
ALTUVIIIO (efanesoctocog alfa)
The New England Journal of Medicine published full results from the second pivotal phase 3 study, XTEND-Kids (clinical study identifier: NCT04759131), highlighting efficacy, safety, and the pharmacokinetic profile of ALTUVIIIO, as a first-in-class, high-sustained factor VIII replacement therapy, for adults and children with hemophilia A for routine prophylaxis and on-demand treatment to control bleeding episodes as well as for perioperative management (surgery). In May, FDA updated the label for ALTUVIIIO to include the results from the XTEND-Kids phase 3 study in children with hemophilia A.
fitusiran (RNAi targeting antithrombin)
Sanofi’s collaborator Siemens Healthineers has submitted for FDA review the INNOVANCE® Antithrombin Assay as a companion diagnostic that will measure antithrombin levels in people living with hemophilia who are prescribed fitusiran, a potential antithrombin-lowering medicine for the prophylactic treatment of people with hemophilia A or B, with or without inhibitors. The prescription drug user fee act (PDUFA) action date for fitusiran is March 28, 2025.
rilzabrutinib (BTK inhibitor)
During the quarter, a single-arm phase 2 study (clinical study identifier: NCT05002777) of rilzabrutinib in warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia read out positively with clinically meaningful outcomes on response rate and additional disease markers. Data are planned to be shared at a medical meeting later this year. The results of this study build on the successful phase 3 study in immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and reinforce its efficacy in autoimmune cytopenias.
losmapimod (p38α/β MAPK inhibitor)
Fulcrum announced that the losmapimod REACH phase 3 study (clinical study identifier: NCT05397470) assessing efficacy and safety in adults with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) did not meet the primary endpoint.
Cerdelga (eliglustat)
The CHMP adopted a positive opinion recommending the expanded approval of Cerdelga to include treatment of pediatric patients with Gaucher disease type 1 (GD1), who are six years and older with a minimum body weight of 15 kg, who have been previously treated with enzyme replacement therapy, and who are CYP2D6 poor metabolizers, intermediate metabolizers or extensive metabolizers. The EMA granted an orphan designation in 2007 for the treatment of GD1, and Cerdelga is approved in the US and EU for adults patients with GD1.

Neurology
tolebrutinib (BTK inhibitor)
Positive results from the HERCULES phase 3 study (clinical study identifier: NCT04411641) showed that tolebrutinib met the primary endpoint of improvement over placebo in delaying time to onset of confirmed disability progression (CDP) in people with non-relapsing secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (nrSPMS). Specifically, tolebrutinib delayed the time to onset of 6-month CDP by 31% (HR 0.69; 95% CI 0.55-0.88; p=0.0026). Further analysis of secondary endpoints showed that the number of participants who experienced confirmed disability improvement increased by nearly two-fold, 10% with tolebrutinib compared to 5% with placebo (HR 1.88; 95% CI 1.10 to 3.21; nominal p=0.021).
In the HERCULES study, nrSPMS was defined at baseline as having a SPMS diagnosis with an expanded disability status scale score between 3.0 and 6.5, no clinical relapses for the previous 24 months and documented evidence of disability accumulation in the previous 12 months. Preliminary analysis of liver safety was consistent with previous tolebrutinib studies.
Results from the GEMINI 1 and 2 phase 3 studies (clinical study identifiers: NCT04410978/NCT04410991, respectively) evaluating tolebrutinib did not meet the primary endpoint of reducing annualized relapse rate, compared to Aubagio, a standard of care treatment, in people with relapsing MS (RMS). However, analysis of the key secondary endpoint of pooled 6-month CDW data showed a considerable delay in time to onset, which supports the CDP data observed in HERCULES. These results were presented at the European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ECTRIMS) conference 2024 in Copenhagen, Denmark. Sanofi expects making regulatory submissions in SPMS starting this quarter.
frexalimab (CD40L mAb)
New efficacy and safety data at 18 months from the phase 2 open-label extension study of frexalimab (clinical study identifier: NCT04879628), for the treatment of RMS, demonstrated sustained reduction of disease activity as measured by MRI, with stable clinical surrogate endpoints. Frexalimab remained well tolerated with no new safety signals. These results were also presented at ECTRIMS 2024 and support the ongoing clinical development with two phase 3 studies in RMS and one phase 3 study in nrSPMS.
oditrasertib (RIPK1 inhibitor)
The K2 phase 2 study (clinical study identifier: NCT05630547) evaluating safety and the efficacy of oditrasertib on serum neurofilament light chain levels in patients with MS was discontinued based on not meeting the primary and key secondary endpoints.
Oncology
Sarclisa (isatuximab)
•The FDA approved Sarclisa in combination with bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRd) as a first-line treatment option for adult patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are not eligible for autologous stem cell transplant (NDMM, TI). Sarclisa is the first anti-CD38 therapy in combination with standard-of-care VRd to significantly reduce disease progression or death (by 40%, HR 0.60; 95% CI: 0.44 to 0.81, p=0.0009) compared to VRd alone for patients with NDMM not eligible for transplant. Other regulatory submissions based on the IMROZ phase 3 study (clinical study identifier: NCT03319667) in this third indication for Sarclisa are currently under review in the EU, Japan, and China.
•New results from the two-part, double-randomized, German-speaking Myeloma Multicenter Group (GMMG)-HD7 phase 3 study (clinical study identifier: NCT03617731) showed that Sarclisa in combination with lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (RVd) during induction therapy in NDMM, transplant-eligible (TE), significantly prolonged progression-free survival from first randomization, resulting in a statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction in disease progression or death, compared to RVd induction regardless of the maintenance regimen. Full results will be submitted for presentation at a forthcoming medical meeting with regulatory submission later this year in the EU.
Vaccines
Beyfortus (nirsevimab)
New data from the HARMONIE phase 3b study (clinical study identifier: NCT05437510) demonstrated that Beyfortus consistently reduced respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) hospitalizations by 82.7% (95% CI: 67.8% to 91.5%) through six months (180 days) with no evidence of waning protection after dosing compared to no intervention. Beyfortus also reduced RSV lower respiratory tract disease in infants by 87.2% (95% CI: 81.7% to 91.1%), regardless of the healthcare setting (outpatient, emergency department or inpatient) compared to no RSV intervention, according to new real-world
8
evidence from the Beyfortus Effectiveness Against medically attended RSV events in infants (BEAR) study following 31,900 US healthy infants in their first RSV season. These findings confirm the significant positive efficacy and safety profile that Beyfortus demonstrated in multi-country, real-world conditions over a long period of time.
MenQuadfi (quadrivalent meningococcal vaccine)
The FDA accepted for review the supplemental biologics license application for MenQuadfi (clinical study identifier: NCT03547271) for the potential extension of the indication to include children aged six weeks to 23 months through active immunization for the prevention of invasive meningococcal disease caused by Neisseria meningitidis serogroups A, C, W, and Y. The PDUFA date is May 23, 2025.
NVX-CoV2705 (COVID-19 vaccine)
The EMA approved and the FDA authorized for emergency use the updated Novavax protein-based COVID-19 vaccine. The vaccine has been refined to also target the JN.1 parent strain of the COVID-19 virus. A regulatory submission for full approval in the US is being prepared. In 2025, Sanofi will take on the commercialization from Novavax.

Opella sales were €1,271 million and increased by 7.9%. Growth was enhanced by the acquisition of Qunol (c.5%), organic sales growth (c.3%), and industrial sales transferred from Biopharma in January 2024 (c.2%) but tempered by divestments (c.2%). In North America, growth benefited mainly from the Qunol acquisition with some impacts from lower demand in the Seasonal symptoms & pain relief category, more specifically in allergy. Europe delivered steady sales with improving in-market performance supported by price, offset by negative volume impact. In the Rest of World, sales were driven by the Wellness category. In YTD 2024, sales increased by 8.8%, driven by Qunol (c.6%), organic growth (c.3%) and industrial sales (c.2%). This momentum was partially offset by the negative effect of divestments linked to strategic portfolio rationalization (c.2%).
Opella business operating income
In Q3 2024, Opella BOI was €287 million and increased by 1.1% (12.0% at CER). The ratio of BOI to net sales was 22.6% and decreased by 0.2pp (23.7% at CER, up by 0.9pp). This development was mainly driven by a higher gross margin, lower R&D expenses, and higher other operating income partly offset by higher SG&A expenses. In YTD 2024, BOI was €1,026 million and decreased by 9.5% (increased by 1.7% at CER). The ratio of BOI to net sales was 25.0% and decreased by 3.6pp (26.7% at CER, down by 1.9pp).
For future Opella reporting and accounting, please refer to the separate press release from October 21, 2024.

Living wage pledge
In many countries, minimum wages are insufficient to guarantee that workers and their families can meet basic needs. Sanofi is proud to go beyond the minimum by committing to a living wage for all employees.
Since 2023, Sanofi has adopted the Fair Wage Network’s methodology to ensure every employee earns above their respective local living wage benchmarks. Providing a living wage not only improves employees’ health and well-being but also strengthens local economies.
As a Living Wage employer and a proud signatory of the UN Global Compact’s Forward Faster initiative, Sanofi is setting a new standard.
Sanofi’s commitment to fair wages extends beyond the workforce, and the company will continue to advocate for living wages across key supply chain partners.

“Cancer & Work: Acting Together": a holistic approach to care for Sanofi employees
”Cancer & Work: Acting Together" has been rolled out internationally since early 2024. It is a holistic approach that is based on three pillars: a human resources policy that offers a high degree of social protection, an international network of employees trained in counseling who run confidential listening and exchange spaces for personalized support, and active communication that sheds light on the issues of cancer and other critical illnesses.
•Since January 1, 2024, the program's flagship measure - 12 months' salary, social protection and employment guarantee - has been in place for all employees affected by cancer, regardless of their geographical location. In the interests of fairness and inclusion, Sanofi has also extended this coverage to other serious illnesses.
•To date, the international network has 113 Sanofi employees in 36 countries, all of whom have completed a 10-hour training program in ”Cancer & Work” counseling. The network is structured geographically to offer locally-adapted actions and support, and is also connected globally on a monthly basis to develop its knowledge and practices.
•Finally, a worldwide awareness campaign has been launched in October to raise awareness amongst employees on the challenges of prevention, screening and “Cancer & Work” support, to promote the program and to develop an inclusive culture.

Company sales at constant exchange rates (CER)

Free cash flow
Free cash flow is a non-IFRS financial indicator which is reviewed by management, and which management believes provides useful information to measure the net cash generated from Sanofi’s operations that is available for strategic investments1 (net of divestments1), for debt repayment, and for capital return to shareholders. Free cash flow is determined from the Business net income adjusted for depreciation, amortization and impairment, share of profit/loss in associates and joint ventures net of dividends received, gains and losses on disposals, net change in provisions including pensions and other post-employment benefits, deferred taxes, share-based expense and other non-cash items. It comprises net changes in working capital, capital expenditures and other asset acquisitions2 net of disposal proceeds2, and payments related to restructuring and similar items. Free cash flow is not defined by IFRS and it is not a substitute measure for the IFRS aggregate net cash flows in operating activities.
1 Amount of the transaction above a cap of €500 million per transaction (inclusive of all payments related to the transaction).
2 Not exceeding a cap of €500 million per transaction (inclusive of all payments related to the transaction).
