PRESS RELEASE

AB SCIENCE PROVIDES AN UPDATE ON THE APPLICATION FOR CONDITIONAL MARKETING AUTHORISATION OF MASITINIB IN THE TREATMENT OF AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS

Paris, 29 May, 2024, 6pm CET

AB Science SA (Euronext - FR0010557264 - AB) today announces that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a trending toward a negative opinion on the application for conditional marketing authorisation of masitinib in the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), following an oral explanation held at the 28 May meeting of the CHMP.

The CHMP is expected to adopt a formal opinion on the MAA at its next meeting, which will be held June 24-27, 2024. AB Science will continue to work with the CHMP to determine the appropriate pathway forward, including a possible request for re-examination.

AB Science will host a live webcast on Thursday May 30, 2024, from 5.30pm to 6.30pm CET.

The agenda of this live webcast will be to explain the main clinical objections leading the CHMP not to consider approving at this time masitinib for treatment of ALS, and the arguments potentially justifying a request for re-examination.

The presentation will be followed by a Q&A session.

AB Science has asked Euronext to suspend the listing of its shares on the Euronext market, with effect from the publication of this press release, pending the publication of the press release summarizing the webcast.
