Sanofi SA said Friday that it intends to start a tender offer for the acquisition of U.S.-based biopharmaceutical company Principia Biopharma Inc.

The French pharmaceutical company said the offer to buy Principia in a deal that values the developer of a promising multiple sclerosis treatment at $3.68 billion is set to expire on Sept. 25.

Sanofi agreed to buy the U.S. company earlier in August.
