Orcrist Bio Inc. Files with European Competent Authority for a Phase I, Open-label, Single-ascending-dose, Safety Study of HYC750
Date:2/9/2009

CALGARY, Feb. 9 /PRNewswire/ - Orcrist Bio Inc. (ORC) a biotech company developing stem cell-mobilizing pharmaceuticals, announced today that it has filed with the European Competent Authority in Seville, Spain, a Phase I, open-label, single-ascending-dose, safety study of HYC750 in healthy male volunteers. The goal of the study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (induction of hematopoiesis) of HYC750, a patent-protected formulation of hyaluronan. ORC utilized the regulatory expertise and experience of Kinesis Pharma BV (Breda, Netherlands) to develop the clinical trial submission. The planned study is to be conducted by InPEC BV (Breda, Netherlands) at their clinical trial site in Malaga, Spain.

Dr. Thomas Ichim, Chairman of ORC's Scientific Advisory Board commented "HYC750 possesses a very favourable pharmacological and pharmaceutical profile and is an excellent candidate for aggressive and rapid clinical development."

"Filing the requisite regulatory documentation with the European authorities to initiate our Phase I clinical trial was a major accomplishment for our company and represents Orcrist's most important milestone thus far," said Dr. Brett Schönekess, President and CEO of Orcrist. "We are thrilled with the expertise and professionalism provided by both Kinesis and InPEC, and are very excited to see the HYC750 clinical program move forward. Our clinical goal is to confirm the safety profile of HYC750 and to see a clear illustration of its stem cell mobilization properties, which would support its future development as a treatment for chemotherapy-related blood cell depletion."

"We are very honored to be chosen by Orcrist to coordinate and perform their Phase I study with HYC750 and we look forward to the future initiation of the trial" commented Dr. Ronald van der Geest, Chief Business Officer of InPEC BV. "Orcrist, Kinesis, and InPEC have worked as a team on this project, and I beli
