Taysha Gene Therapies and Catalent expand strategic partnership to include future commercial manufacturing support of TSHA-102 gene therapy for Rett Syndrome. 08-03-2026 CAMBRIDGE, Mass. and DALLAS and TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Taysha Gene Therapies, Inc., (Nasdaq: TSHA) (Taysha), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based gene therapies for rare, monogenic diseases of the central nervous system, and Catalent, Inc., (Catalent), the leading global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) dedicated to helping people live better and healthier lives, today announced a commercial supply agreement for TSHA-102, Taysha's investigational gene therapy in pivotal development for Rett syndrome, under which Catalent will serve as Taysha's primary commercial manufacturer following potential U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval. Building on a partnership that has supported the development of TSHA-102 since 2020, the agreement secures long-term commercial manufacturing capacity and a scalable supply framework to support a potential commercial launch and future demand. Catalent will provide GMP manufacturing and commercial supply of TSHA-102 at its FDA-licensed commercial gene therapy facility in Harmans, Maryland, leveraging its experience across more than 90 gene therapy programs, including multiple commercial products. "As we continue to advance TSHA-102, establishing long-term commercial manufacturing capacity is a critical component of our launch readiness strategy," said Sean P. Nolan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Taysha. "Catalent's deep gene therapy expertise and proven commercial manufacturing capabilities make them an ideal partner as we expand our partnership to further strengthen our commercial infrastructure with a reliable, scalable supply framework. With BLA-enabling Process Performance Qualification activities underway, we believe we have established the manufacturing foundation necessary to support the strong demand we expect following the potential launch and commercialization of TSHA-102." "At Catalent, our priority is to support innovators who are redefining what's possible for patients with rare diseases," said David McErlane, Biologics Group President for Catalent. "Our partnership with Taysha brings together deep AAV expertise and a shared commitment to advancing a potential therapy for Rett syndrome - a condition with significant unmet need. We are proud to help enable the development and future supply of therapies that have the potential to make a meaningful difference for patients and their families." This partnership reflects Catalent's continued commitment to supporting innovators across the cell and gene therapy landscape, providing end-to-end solutions from development through commercialization to help bring transformative therapies to patients. About Rett Syndrome Rett syndrome is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations in the X-linked MECP2 gene encoding methyl CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2), which is essential for regulating neuronal and synaptic function in the brain. The disorder is characterized by loss of communication and hand function, slowing and/or regression of development, motor and respiratory impairment, seizures, intellectual disabilities and shortened life expectancy. Rett syndrome progression is divided into four key stages, beginning with early onset stagnation at 6 to 18 months of age followed by rapid regression, plateau and late motor deterioration. Rett syndrome primarily occurs in females and is one of the most common genetic causes of severe intellectual disability. Currently, there are no approved disease-modifying therapies that treat the genetic root cause of the disease. Rett syndrome caused by a pathogenic/likely pathogenic MECP2 mutation is estimated to affect between 15,000 and 20,000 patients in the U.S., EU, and U.K. About Taysha Gene Therapies Taysha Gene Therapies (Nasdaq: TSHA) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on advancing adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based gene therapies for severe monogenic diseases of the central nervous system. Its lead clinical program TSHA-102 is in development for Rett syndrome, a rare neurodevelopmental disorder with no approved disease-modifying therapies that address the genetic root cause of the disease. With a singular focus on developing transformative medicines, Taysha aims to address severe unmet medical needs and dramatically improve the lives of patients and their caregivers. The Company's management team has proven experience in gene therapy development and commercialization. Taysha leverages this experience, its manufacturing process and a clinically and commercially proven AAV9 capsid in an effort to rapidly translate treatments from bench to bedside.

Codis to acquire Catalent's Nottingham facility to create Europe's leading end-to-end spray drying capability. 08-Jul-2026 Codis, a global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) specializing in spray drying, amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs), and advanced particle engineering solutions, announced an agreement with Catalent Pharma Solutions to acquire Catalent's facility in Nottingham, UK. The acquisition, expected to close in Q3 of this year subject to customary closing conditions, will add oral solid dose (OSD) development and small-scale manufacturing capabilities and create Europe's leading single partner path for integrated spray dry solutions, from development through clinical supply and commercial intermediates, to final oral dose forms. The Nottingham site brings a highly experienced team and deep scientific expertise in formulation development and clinical supply, successfully delivering development-scale spray drying and OSD solutions for over two decades. Codis is excited to welcome the Nottingham team into the organization. This acquisition will strategically complement Codis' large scale commercial spray drying facility in Haverhill, UK, which is now undergoing significant expansion with a new GEA Pharma-SD(R) type PSD-4 commercial spray dryer scheduled to be validated in 2027. It will also augment Codis' current portfolio of bioavailability enhancement solutions with integrated development, analytical, and clinical and small-scale commercial manufacturing co-located at the site. "This strategic acquisition will further establish Codis as a leading European provider of comprehensive spray dry solutions," said Nicolas Fortin, CEO of Codis. "The close proximity of our Nottingham and Haverhill sites creates a unique advantage. Codis can now offer access to the best scientific expertise with a strong, integrated manufacturing capability within a single organization and quality system." Mr Fortin noted, "Most small-molecule drug candidates suffer from poor solubility, and spray-dried dispersions have become one of the primary approaches to improving bioavailability. Yet one of the greatest development risks remains the transfer from formulation to commercial-scale manufacturing. By bringing formulation development and GMP manufacturing together, we provide the fastest, lowest-risk path to unlocking a molecule's full potential."
