Sangamo BioSciences Announces Presentation of Phase 1b ZFP Therapeutic Data at American Diabetes Association Meeting
Date:6/8/2008

ved a single treatment in both legs of either placebo (12 subjects) or SB-509 (12 subjects who received 60 mg total dose, 30 mg per leg). All of the subjects completed 6-month follow-up testing. SB-509 was well tolerated and no drug-related severe adverse events were observed. Clinically relevant and statistically significant improvements were seen in neurologic examination using the Neurological Impairment Score - Lower Limbs (NIS-LL) and quantitative sensory testing (QST) which quantifies perception of vibration. In addition, there was a trend towards improvement in nerve conduction velocity (NCV), a measure of the ability of a nerve to transmit an applied electrical signal, in both sensory and motor nerves.

Specifically, improvement in neurologic evaluation by NIS-LL in SB-509-treated subjects was measured as a statistically significant, clinically relevant improvement of 1.9 point change from baseline levels compared to a 0.7 point worsening in the placebo group (a delta in NIS-LL of 2.6, p=0.043). In addition, there was a 25.3% improvement in detection of mechanical sensation compared to baseline, as measured by QST testing, in SB-509-treated patients compared to a 5.1% worsening in the placebo group (a delta in QST of 30.4%, p=0.02). The mean improvement in sensory (sural) NCV measurements 180 days post treatment was 1.2 Meters/sec with SB-509 treatment compared to -0.4 Meters/sec with placebo (a delta in NCV of 1.6 Meters/sec). The mean sum of improvement of all lower extremity motor NCV measurements 180 days post treatment was 0.8 Meters/sec with SB-509 treatment compared to -0.9 Meters/sec with placebo (a delta in NCV of 1.7 Meters/sec).

While the primary end-point of Sangamo's Phase 1b study (SB-509-401) was safety, data were also collected that were designed to measure changes in neurological health. Quantitative sensory testing (QST) using the Vibratron II is used as a method of assessing a subject's change in vibration sensitivity. Direct
