Date:9/5/2008

t of cancer prior to selecting EGEN-001 to be among the top ten most attractive oncology products available for strategic partnering.

As a selected company, Expression Genetics has been invited to present data on EGEN-001 TheraPlas(R) IL-12 oncology product at Windhover's Therapeutic Area Partnerships conference on November 3-5, 2008, in Philadelphia, PA.

About EGEN-001 TheraPlas(TM) Oncology Product

EGEN-001 is under development for the treatment of advanced recurrent ovarian cancer, as well as other local or disseminated solid tumors. The product is based on proprietary TheraPlas(R) delivery technology. It is composed of an interleukin-12 (IL-12) gene expression plasmid and a biocompatible delivery polymer. IL-12 is a potent cytokine which works by multiple mechanisms of action to enhance the body's immune system against cancer and inhibit tumor blood supply. EGEN-001 has completed a Phase I monotherapy trial with promising results and is currently in the final stage of a Phase IA trial designed to evaluate safety and preliminary efficacy of the drug when administered in combination with conventional chemotherapy treatment. EGEN-001 received Orphan Drug Status from the FDA in 2005 and a $1 million FDA Orphan Grant in 2007.
