Date:11/8/2007

LOS ALTOS, Calif., Nov. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- InteKrin Therapeutics, Inc., a privately-held clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel drugs for the treatment of diabetes and cardio-metabolic diseases, announced today that Alex M. DePaoli M.D. has joined the company as Chief Medical Officer. Dr. DePaoli will be a member of InteKrin's senior management team and will be responsible for the clinical development of the Company's pipeline of products.

"We are extremely pleased to have a seasoned world-class drug developer of Alex's caliber join the company," said Denny Lanfear, InteKrin Chief Executive.
