the result of age; (ii) avoid autoimmune reactions; and (iii) ensure that the antibodies generated do not interfere with the normal physiological functions of the Amyloid Precursor Protein. RECALL-VAX(TM) is specifically designed to address these challenges." Professor Chain, the brother of Dr. Daniel Chain, Intellect's Chairman and CEO, is the inventor of RECALL-VAX(TM) and a member of the Company's Scientific Advisory Board.

About Intellect's RECALL-VAX(TM) technology

The key to inactivation of the beta-amyloid toxin by vaccination is to stimulate a strong antibody immune response that specifically targets the toxin. The proprietary RECALL-VAX(TM) technology combines a short fragment of beta-amyloid with part of the tetanus toxoid, against which most people have been vaccinated, to provide B and T-helper epitopes, respectively, while specifically targeting the beta-amyloid toxin. This combination increases the likelihood of generating a robust immune response as a result of the memory imprint created by tetanus toxoid without the danger of contamination from potentially harmful human beta-amyloid T-cell epitopes. The short fragments of beta-amyloid used in RECALL-VAX(TM) ensure that only the toxin, and not the protein from which it is derived, is targeted by the antibodies, and because of their short length, the fragments are incapable of provoking an autoimmune response.

About Alzheimer's disease

Alzheimer's disease, the most common form of dementia, is characterized by progressive loss of memory and cognition, ultimately leading to complete debilitation and death. A hallmark feature of Alzheimer's pathology is the presence of insoluble protein deposits known as beta-amyloid on the surface of nerve cells, which results from the accumulation of soluble beta-amyloid in the brain. The effects of the disease are devastating to the patients as well as the caregivers, with significant associated health care costs. It is estimated that there are
