Excellent Results Received from GeoVax's Full-Dose HIV/AIDS Vaccine Trial
Date:11/2/2007

ATLANTA, Nov. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- GeoVax Labs, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: GOVX), an Atlanta based biotechnology company, announced today excellent safety and immunogenicity data from its full-dose HIV/AIDS vaccine human trial which began in September 2006.

This full-dose trial is the second in a series of four Phase 1 human trials designed to test the safety and immunogenicity of the GeoVax HIV/AIDS vaccines. Involving 36 participants of which 30 received vaccine and 6 received placebo, this trial protocol included vaccination with two full-doses of GeoVax's DNA vaccine to prime the immune response followed by two full- doses of GeoVax's MVA vaccine to boost the immune response. GeoVax's DNA and MVA vaccines express over 50% of the AIDS virus (HIV-1) protein components in order to stimulate a broad anti-HIV immune response. The vaccines cannot cause AIDS because they do not include complete virus. A Phase 1 human trial, started in April 2006, evaluated the delivery of only 1/10th of the full dosage and utilized the same vaccine regimen evaluated in the full dose trial.

From data collected from the 26 participants who completed the trial, the following positive conclusions were observed:

-- GeoVax HIV/AIDS vaccines, both DNA and MVA, continue to demonstrate that they are quite safe and immunogenic following the delivery of the four full-doses (two of each vaccine) used in the trial's protocol

-- The full-dose regimen of GeoVax vaccines continues to be well tolerated without any type of reaction, mild or systemic, in the majority of participants

-- CD4 T-cell and CD8 T-cell responses are very evident both in the 1/10th dose and full-dose vaccine recipients

-- Antibody responses to the envelope glycoprotein (Env) increased following the fourth vaccination, and were present in 88% of the full-dose participants

-- Delivery of the fourth vaccination increased the frequency and magnitude of the CD8 T-cell and Antibody
