Odiparcil – MPS
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are devastating diseases with high unmet medical need MPS is a group of inherited lysosomal storage disorders Autosomal recessive disorders characterized by accumulation of glycosaminoglycan(s) (GAGs) due to deficient lysosomal enzymes Seven distinct clinical types based on the enzyme affected: odiparcil could be the first substrate reduction therapy for five forms of MPS with the following incidences: – MPS I: 1/100,000(1) Kathleen (MPS I) – MPS II: 1/100,000(1) – MPS IV type A: 1/40,000 to 1/200,000(1) – MPS VI: 1/240,000 to 1/400,000 (1) – MPS VII: very rare (1) MPS has devastating clinical consequences: example MPS I, II and VI Consequences MPS I MPS II MPS VI Scotty (MPS II) Mental retardation Coarse facies, short stature Dysostosis multiplex Joint stiffness Spinal cord compression Organomegaly Poor vision (corneal clouding) (1) Hearing loss Cardiac/respiratory disease Karima (MPS VI) (1) Retinal degeneration with no corneal clouding Pebbled skin Odontoid hypoplasia Diarrhoea Kyphoscoliosis, genu valgum Source: (1) Source: Rheumatology 2011 Therapy for mucopolysaccharodises; Vassili Valayannopoulos and Frits A.

Odiparcil: an orally available small molecule substrate reduction therapy to treat several forms of MPS Decreases lysosomal accumulation of GAGs by modifying how DS and CS are synthesised – promotes formation of soluble DS / CS which can be excreted in the urine, rather than accumulating in cells Oral administration Widely distributed in tissues that are poorly penetrated by enzyme replacement therapy Activity Odiparcil-mediated reduction of intracellular GAG accumulation demonstrated in in vitro and in vivo models US biomarker study finalized and Phase IIa study in MPS VI initiated - data expected H2 2019 Potential to be prescribed in combination with ERT and also as potential monotherapy Low toxicity in vivo Safety Favorable safety and tolerability profile in multiple Phase I and Phase II clinical studies in unrelated indication(1) (administered to >1,800 subjects) allowing the commencement of a POC study in MPS VI patients Method of use patent filed in 2013 and granted in EU (Nov. 2015) and the US (Feb. 2017): LOE(2) 2039 including 5-year extension IP MPS VI Orphan Drug Designation granted in the US and in the EU Rare Pediatric Disease Designation in MPS VI granted in the US (1) Trial conducted by GSK prior to Inventiva’s founding (2) LOE: Loss of exclusivity Corporate Presentation | 2019 Non-confidential – Property of Inventiva │ 30

LeukoGAG biomarker for MPS VI demonstrates the incomplete impact of ERT and opportunity for odiparcil Leukocytes are promising cells: easy to collect; intracellular GAG levels are seen to be increased in animal model of MPS where odiparcil decreases intra-cellular GAG content Objectives of Inventiva’s non-interventional study: develop a robust quantification method to measure intracellular HS, CS and DS in leukocytes and an activity biomarker to be used in clinical trials Population: 6 MPS VI patients on ERT and 6 age matched control subjects not affected with MPS Investigational site: Dr. Paul Harmatz (PI), UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital in Oakland (CA, USA) ARSB(1) activity in leukocytes is MPS VI patients treated with MPS VI patients treated with ERT have increased by 8 fold after ERT ERT have increased CS (and DS increased CS and DS levels in urine infusion levels) in leukocytes CS DS 200 60 7-15y >16y 10 10.0 10 creatinine) creatinine) 150 8 (nmol/hr/mg) (nmol/hr/mg) 40 (mg/mol creatinine) 8 (mg/mol creatinine) 7.5 6 6 100 (mg/mol 5.0 4 4 (mg/mol 20 50 2.5 2 2 0.0 0 0 0 0 control MPS VI control MPS VI control MPS VI control Pre- control Pre- 1 h post- 1 h post- subjects patients subjects patients subjects patients receiving ERT receiving ERT receiving ERT subjects infusion infusion subjects infusion infusion MPS VI patients MPS VI patients receiving ERT receiving ERT MPS VI patients treated with Naglazyme maintained a high level of intracellular DS and CS levels in leukocytes compared to age matched healthy volunteers suggesting the possibility to further reduce this level with odiparcil (1) Arylsulfatase B, which is involved in the breakdown of GAGs Corporate Presentation | 2019 Non-confidential – Property of Inventiva │ 39
