IDM Pharma Provides Update of Product Pipeline and Announces Plans to Evaluate Strategic Alternatives for the Company
Date:12/14/2007

nd to all of the questions and requests for additional information received from FDA, the Company now anticipates it will likely take until the second half of 2008 to prepare the amendment to the new drug application (NDA) for L-MTP-PE.

Given the significant additional time and cost that would need to be incurred in order to collect the patient data and respond to regulatory agency comments on the filings for L-MTP-PE, the Company's board of directors authorized management to work with the Company's investment bank, JMP Securities, to evaluate the Company's research and development programs, including related assets and costs, and strategic alternatives available to the Company.

"We, along with key opinion leaders in the United States and Europe, continue to strongly believe in the survival benefit offered by L-MTP-PE in osteosarcoma patients, a devastating disease where there hasn't been a treatment advance in more than 20 years," said Timothy P. Walbert, president and chief executive officer, IDM Pharma. "Based on the current status of the lead program and an evaluation of the timing, potential costs and risks involved in continuing with current clinical plans, we believe it is prudent to manage our cash burn at this time and to pursue strategic alternatives that would potentially preserve the value of our lead program assets without undue risks."

The study is designed to enroll 82 patients at sites in the United States and Eur
