Argos Therapeutics Presents Immunosuppression Data for Soluble CD83,at the American Society of Transplantation Congress 2007

DURHAM, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 4, 2007 - Argos Therapeutics today announced the presentation of data on the immunosuppressive properties of soluble CD83 at the 7th Joint American Transplant meeting to be held in San Francisco, May 5-9. The presentations will be made in collaboration with scientists at the University of Western Ontario.

"These data suggest that soluble CD83 is able to extend graft survival in transplantation, and that it can also act synergistically with other immunosuppressive agents," commented Dr. Stephen Brand, Director of Biotherapeutics at Argos Therapeutics. "sCD83 appears to be able to maintain antigen presenting cells in an immature state, and these immunologically tolerant cells favor regulatory T-cell generation because they are less effective in activating naive T and B cells."

"This emerging activity profile for sCD83, as well as its ability to suppress antibody production without systemic suppression, may provide advantages over currently available B-cell targeting therapies," said Dr. Charles Nicolette, Chief Scientific Officer and Vice President of Research and Development of Argos. "The extended graft survival that we have observed thus far indicates that sCD83 could potentially provide enhanced organ function, without immune rejection, and may serve to reduce the toxic profile associated with many commonly used immunotherapeutic agents. These data support Argos' plans to conduct additional studies with CD83 in transplantation and autoimmune models, which will provide important information as we develop a clinical strategy for this candidate."

Data will be discussed in the following presentations:

-- Abstract # 1697: "Soluble CD83 in combination with Rapamycin and anti-CD45RB monoclonal antibody induces long-term graft survival in a mouse cardiac transplantation model"

-- Abstract #116: "Soluble CD83 can inhibit B-cell activation and differentiati
