- 2. As more than 60% of new drugs fail in phase 2, we have chosen to focus our activities since 2000 on preclinical In Vivo Efficacy Studies to offer better predictability and anticipate clinical results. We are actively involved in optimizing efficacy study designs on animal models to improve the success rate in phase 2 and thus reduce the drug-to-market cost. With advanced techniques selecting specific biomarkers and func- tional exploration methods relying on strict procedures, trained people and appropriate animal models, our team of outstanding pro- fessionals look forward to assist our customers in evaluating the po- tential of their compounds.

- 3. Partner of large and medium drug discovery companies all around the world since 2000, our main activities consist in : DRUG EFFICACY STUDIES BIOAVAILIBILITY AND CNS-PK STUDIES We have developped and validated so far more than 15 disease models, and our flexible and human-sized organization can design and operate tai- lored experimental protocols to give you appropriate answers. Beyond sound science, our proactive approach combining pharmacological expertise, appropriate study design, relevant endpoints performed on relevant and complemental disease models, provide our clients the most relevant datas. Besides our premium services and track record of success, we pay especial attention to ethics, animal welfare, sustainable development and to the validation of up to date technics. IN SHORT 3

- 9. TESTIMONIALS We were looking for a few months for a company able to help us in making the right decision with our in house compounds. Our discussions with Syncrosome were very fruitfull and were always available to give us their feedback and suggestions. They are focus on in vivo efficacy studies for more than 10 years with a comprehensive background. In summary « good procedures for good science» allowed us to succed in phase 2. Very good guys, thank you ! M.T., Target Validation, CHIESI Farmaceutici S.p.a. We wanted to collaborate with a high level CRO capable of conducting in vivo studies in a good scientific manner, and to assist us in elaborating the study design and interpretation of results. We retained Syncrosome after visting their facilities that they fully own. We also audit their pro- cedures, SOP, training program etc… Everything was OK. We had very good relationship with the Study director and good discussions before, during and after the experiments ! C.P. Director Research and Preclinical, HELSINN 10
