Team Communication

The joint development team expects to have biweekly teleconferences and bimonthly face to face meetings or others as deemed necessary. A meeting agenda will be agreed to and provided prior to each meeting. Meeting slides and data will be provided prior to each meeting as needed. Meeting action items

Exhibit C-1

and follow up will be provided following each meeting as needed. The team will utilize a joint shared repository site to store project documents.

Requirements & Scale

Demonstration Scale: 2 - 5g or as determined appropriate by process requirements and equipment limitations.

For both process and product requirements, it is assumed that the characteristics and quality of the huB4 antibody will be equivalent to the antibody currently in use for the phase I process.  Any changes to the antibody manufacturing process that could compromise meeting the targeted Phase IIb specifications will not be implemented during the term of this study without mutual consent.

Process Requirements: The process used to generate the final 2 x 2 — 5g batches should meet the following requirements:

1) Small molecule clearance (DMA, XxXX, PBA, NHS, DM4)

2) Process scalability:

a) Initial target is a 200 — 500g (starting antibody) process, scalable to 1 — 2kg

b) Buffer volume optimized

c) Impact of materials of construction understood, removal of halides

d) Process kinetics

i) Modification and conjugation durations

ii) Hold times (to allow for manufacturing flexibility)

3) Overall process yield should be ~ 80% (current ~ 70%) if possible

Product Requirements: The conjugate drug substance should be comparable to the Phase I material, with the exception of:

1)	SDS PAGE. sanofi-aventis may implement a quantitative test
2)	SEC. Target for monomer increased from > 90.0% to > 95.0%
3)	Target concentration increased from 1.0 mg/mL +/- 20% to 5.0 mg/mL +/- 10%
4)	Target D/A 3.7 +/- 0.5 for specification; Process target is 3.7 +/- 0.3
5)	Target free drug lowered from < 0.15% (as % of total protein, equivalent to < 8% relative to total drug) to < 0.10% (as % of total protein, equivalent to < 5% relative to total drug) for specification. Target for process is < 0.02% (as % of total protein, equivalent to < 1% relative to total drug) at t0 by release assay.
6)	Target for binding assay to be narrowed. Parties will agree on new specifications, which will be adapted during course of process and assay development.

For SEC, concentration, D/A and Free Drug, evaluation will be performed using existing assays. Sanofi-aventis will be responsible for development (as necessary) and performance of the binding assay and may also develop assays for additional attributes, e.g. solvents (in addition to DMA); naked antibody; charge heterogeneity; and unreacted linker. As such assays are developed, sanofi-aventis should use them to test representative samples from the process development work. See Table 1 at the end of this document for additional breakdown of proposed analytical responsibilities.

STAGE I: Replace four step process with three step process

Purpose: To demonstrate feasibility of removing the purification step for modified antibody that is part of the current (Phase 1) process.

Exhibit C-2

Activities:

1)	Evaluate available in process assays (e.g. free drug, NHS, PBA, XxXX, free linker), further develop if necessary
2)	Investigate pH/temperature/antibody concentration/solvent concentration for modification and conjugation reactions.
3)	Investigate kinetics of linker degradation, assess impact of degradation products
4)	Investigate kinetics of DM4 degradation, assess impact of degradation products
5)	Determine amounts of SPDB and DM4 required
6)	Perform 2 x 1g scale up runs to assess feasibility of three step process & preliminary impact on stability (test particles at t=0)
7)	Compare material produced by three and four step processes

Deliverables:

S-A:	15 g antibody
	1 g DM4
	0.5 g SPDB
	Analytical testing beyond IMGN responsibility as described in Table 1
IMGN:	Identified process steps
	2 x 1g batches
	Weekly to biweekly update reports
	Summary chart on 3-step process
	Preliminary development report (delivered at end of month 4)

Duration: 3 months.  This assumes that the analytical results from sanofi-aventis are available in a timely manner.  Unless otherwise agreed in the biweekly meetings, timely execution will be defined as ten (10) business days for receipt of the data by ImmunoGen.

IMGN FTE: Average of 4 FTE’s in Process and 2 FTE’s in Analytical (may not be evenly distributed over duration of this phase of project)

Go / No Go decision on further optimization of this process will be taken based on comparability data of 1g demo batches with Ph I reference material. In case material is not comparable, parties will meet to decide how development program could be modified to meet the objective.

STAGE II: Process siting

Purpose: To define siting requirements for the pivotal/commercial manufacturing facility. This includes the initial definition of the process operating parameters that impact the facility footprint and long lead time equipment to be purchased by the commercial CMO.

Activities:

1)	Complete assessment of in process assays, provide analytical support to process
2)	Buffer requirements — IMGN will identify buffer composition and volume requirements. Factors that will be considered include protein concentration, solvent concentration, buffer volume and removal of halides (stainless steel compatibility)
3)	Optimization of SPDB and DM4 amounts
4)	Optimization of reaction time, solvent concentration, temperature and pH (for modification and conjugation reactions)

Exhibit C-3

5)	TFF assessment — IMGN will perform the necessary studies to optimize TFF steps (currently expected to be used for initial processing of antibody prior to modification and for final formulation step). Factors evaluated will include
	a) Determine C bulk, TMP, Feed Flow Rate, membrane type and size.
	b) Product aggregation profile — Assess if aggregation occurs during processing and minimize as feasible. Demonstrate small molecule removal that is consistent with a robust process.
6)	Chromatography assessment — IMGN will perform the necessary steps to optimize the chromatography step expected to be used for purification of conjugate, especially with respect to load, yield, purity (removal of conjugate aggregates and low molecular weight species).
7)	Process Kinetics- to broadly understand impact of addition rate and mixing.
8)	Hold times — define acceptable in process hold times to enhance operational flexibility
9)	All filtration steps will be appropriately sized
10)	TFF & chromatography reuse will be tracked.

Deliverables:

S-A:	100g antibody
	6 g DM4
	3.5 g SPDB
	Preliminary formulation, minimally base buffer (by month 4)
	Analytical testing beyond IMGN responsibility as described in Table 1

	Initial Process Transfer Document (PTD)
	Reports on development and performance of in process assays
	Process performance and product quality data demonstrating that process and product meet requirements as indicated in the requirements and scale section.
Duration:	8 Months. This assumes that the analytical results from sanofi-aventis are available in a timely manner. Unless otherwise agreed in the team meetings. timely execution will be defined as ten (10) business days for receipt of the data by ImmunoGen.
IMGN FTE:	Average of 4 FTE’s in Process and 1 FTE’s in Analytical (may not be evenly distributed over duration of this phase of project)

STAGE III:  Demonstration Batches

Purpose: To demonstrate the reproducibility of the process using target reaction conditions, target chromatography conditions and target TFF conditions.  A protocol for the demonstration batches will be formally approved to insure that the requirements for a scaleable process have been met.  During the time required for this evaluation and protocol approval, the “clock will stop” on the ten month time frame for delivery of the success milestone.  The milestone timing will resume once the demonstration batch manufacture is initiated.

Exhibit C-4

Activities:
	1) Perform 2 x 2-5 gram batch runs
Deliverables:
S-A:	4 - 10 g antibody
	0.5 g DM4
	0.5 g SPDB
	All materials generally representative of Phase II quality
	Analytical testing beyond IMGN responsibility as described in Table 1
IMGN:	Process Transfer Document
	Process Flow Diagram
	Development report summarizing Stages I-III (delivered at end of month 12)
	2 month accelerated stability summary of demo batches (delivered at end of month 13)

Duration: 2 months.  This assumes that the analytical results from sanofi-aventis are available in a timely manner.  Unless otherwise agreed, timely execution will be defined as ten (10) business days from receipt of samples for testing to receipt of the analytical data by ImmunoGen.

IMGN FTE: Average of 1.5 FTEs in Process and 1 FTEs in Analytical (may not be evenly distributed over duration of this phase of project)

Go / No Go decision on the continuation of the development program will be taken based on comparability data of 2-5g demo batches with Ph I reference material, as set forth in Table 2. In case material is not comparable, parties will meet to decide how development program could be modified to meet the objective.

Success Milestone:  A demonstration batch of at least 2g scale which meets the targets and specifications described in the “Requirements and Scale” section above, unless process development data justifies an exception, will be the basis for a milestone payment of $500,000 if this is accomplished within ten months of the initiation of Stage 1 work with the projected number of FTEs.  ImmunoGen will provide formal notification of initiation of Stage 1 work within 4 weeks of execution of the Amendment.  If the demonstration batch is delayed due to factors controlled by sanofi-aventis, such as not receiving the needed materials or analytical data from sanofi-aventis, this date may be modified by mutual agreement.

STAGE IV: Process transfer to CMO

Purpose: To transfer the commercial process from IMGN to the commercial CMO.

Activities:

IMGN: Provide documentation and answer questions from sanofi-aventis and CMO (including: batch records and relevant SOP’s from current cGMP process; process flow diagram; process transfer document; in process test methods)

Technology Transfer to CMO during the Demonstration Batches if required

Participate in tech transfer visit(s) to CMO if required

Exchange and analysis of samples and technical information with CMO (during CMO’s initial scale-up runs and engineering runs)
