EDMONTON, July 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - BioMS Medical Corp. (TSX: MS), a leading developer in the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS), today announced financial and operational results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.

"The pivotal phase III MAESTRO-01 trial has completed the last patient last visit, and we are expecting results from this study within the second half of this year. This is the first of our two pivotal trials evaluating dirucotide in patients with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis and with a positive outcome, our drug could represent a valuable new treatment for MS patients," said Kevin Giese, President and CEO of BioMS Medical.

Currently, BioMS is conducting two pivotal clinical trials and one open-label follow-on trial of dirucotide for the treatment of secondary progressive MS (SPMS):

    -   MAESTRO-01: This pivotal phase III trial is being conducted in Canada
        and Western Europe, involving 611 SPMS patients at 47 trial sites in
        ten countries. The primary clinical endpoint for MAESTRO-01 (and
        MAESTRO-03) is defined as a statistically and clinically significant
        increase in the time to progression of the disease as measured by the
        Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS), in patients with HLA-DR2
        and/or HLA-DR4 immune response genes.

    -   MAESTRO-02: Eligible patients who have successfully completed
        MAESTRO-01 may choose to receive dirucotide on an un-blinded basis in
        this open-label follow-on study regardless of whether they were
        previously on placebo or drug. To date, approximately 95% of the
        eligible patients who have successfully completed the MAESTRO-01
        trial have enrolled in this follow-on study.

    -   MAESTRO-03: Enrollment was initiated in June 2007 and completed on
        August 1, 2008 for this pivotal U.S. phas
