ess highlights.

The 2008 first-quarter net loss of $3.9 million (including a non-cash expense of $191,000 related to stock based compensation), or $0.33 per ordinary share. The first-quarter result compares with a net loss of $2 million (including a non-cash expense of $205,000 related to stock based compensation), or $0.23 per ordinary share, for the corresponding quarter of 2007.

"This has been a remarkable quarter for us at Rosetta Genomics on both the business and scientific fronts," said Amir Avniel, President and CEO of Rosetta Genomics. "We have continued the rapid advancements towards the launch of the first diagnostic tests based on our microRNA technology, and look forward to the exciting events that lay ahead of us in the following months."

On the business front, Rosetta Genomics recently announced that Columbia University Medical Center's Molecular Pathology Laboratory has submitted the first microRNA-based test based on the company's microRNA technology for regulatory approval to the New York State Department of Health. The test is designed to differentiate squamous from non squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is the first of three tests the company expects will be submitted for regulatory approval by CLIA certified labs in 2008.

In addition, the company recently announced an agreement with the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine to develop diagnostic tests based on Rosetta's proprietary microRNA technology.

On the scientific front, in a paper published in the April issue of Nature Biotechnology, Rosetta Genomics and collaborators demonstrated the significant potential of microRNAs to be used as biomarkers for diagnosing the primary tumor site in patients with cancer of unknown primary (CUP). The company expects a CUP test based on its microRNA technology to be submitted for regulatory approval by a CLIA certified lab by the end of 2008.
