ThromboGenics and BioInvent Start Phase II Trial of TB-402, a Novel, Long Acting Anticoagulant for Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Prophylaxis
Date:2/23/2009

escalating doses of TB-402. It is anticipated that the study will conclude by the end of 2010.

Patrik De Haes, CEO of ThromboGenics, commented on today's news "We are very excited about the start of the Phase II trial for TB-402. Our work to date suggests that this novel agent could represent a major advance in anti-coagulant therapy, given our expectation that it will cause fewer unwanted bleeding events and will require no monitoring of patients. This combined with its ability to be used as a "one-off" treatment could make TB-402 the anti-coagulant of choice to prevent DVT in patients undergoing surgery. Given the size of the market opportunity for TB-402 and the sales reach that will be needed to engage with the potential prescribers of TB-402, it is our intention to seek a partner to undertake the later stage development and commercialisation of this exciting new agent."

Svein Mathisen, CEO of BioInvent, also commented, "The initiation of this Phase II trial is another successful step forward in the clinical development of our antibody product development portfolio. TB-402 addresses a broad market and has potentially significant advantages over existing anti-coagulants. We are hopeful it will have application in a number of clinical settings."

About Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)

DVT is caused when a blood clot forms in a deep vein, most commonly in the deep veins of the lower leg. DVT is a major public health issue and it is estimated that in the U.S. alone, more than 350,000 individuals are affected by DVT or pulmonary embolism (PE) each year. Moreover, DVT and PE together may be responsible for more than 100,000 deaths in the U.S. each year.(1)

It is estimated that by 2015, 1.4 million patients will undergo knee replacement and 600,000 patients will undergo hip replacement in the U.S. if current trends persist.(2) Patients undergoing hip replacement or knee surgery are p
