ICAAC Meeting

CHICAGO and GAITHERSBURG, Md., Sept. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Iomai Corporation (Nasdaq: IOMI) today announced that travelers who received the company's patch-based travelers' diarrhea vaccine were significantly less likely to be sickened as compared with travelers who receive a placebo, according to research presented today by Chief Scientific Officer Gregory Glenn, M.D. at a late-breaker presentation during the "Vaccines and Pediatric Infections" session of the 47th Interscience Conference on Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy being held in Chicago.

These are clinically significant results that suggest that the patch vaccine will address the most significant unmet need for travel medicine: prophylaxis for travelers' diarrhea."

One of the 59 volunteers in the vaccine group reported severe diarrhea, compared with 12 of the 111 in the placebo group, an 84 percent reduction (p=0.033).
