CEL-SCI Presents Long-Term Cancer Survival Data With Multikine

Multikine Improves Overall Survival by 33% 3.5 Years Post Surgery

VIENNA, Va., May 21, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CEL-SCI CORPORATION announced today that its cancer drug Multikine(R) was shown to significantly increase long term overall survival in a Phase II study of head and neck cancer patients. The data were presented on May 20, 2007 at the First International Congress of the International Association of Oral Oncology in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, by Dr. Eyal Talor, Senior VP of Research and Manufacturing at CEL-SCI Corporation.

Dr. Talor's presentation focused on the results obtained in CEL-SCI's final Phase II clinical trial of Multikine that was conducted in patients with head and neck cancer (oral squamous cell carcinoma -- OSCC). This final Phase II clinical trial was designed to assess thoroughly the positive safety and efficacy observations made in patients treated with Multikine in CEL-SCI's early Phase II trials. In the trial Multikine was given prior to standard care to recently diagnosed and not yet treated cancer patients.

The addition of Multikine to the first treatment (standard of care) of these patients resulted in a 33% improvement in the median overall survival at 3-1/2 years post-surgery, when compared to the survival results reported in 55 OSCC clinical trials published in the scientific literature between 1987 and 2007.

Multikine first-line treatment also resulted in an improvement of the 2- year local regional over the published local regional control rate. It is clinically recognized that recurrence of disease in head and neck cancer is associated with a very poor prognosis. Multikine treatment did not result in any severe adverse events (SAE) in this Phase II clinical trial and no SAEs related to Multikine have been reported in other trials conducted with Multikine either.

CEL-SCI received clearance from the United States Food and Drug Administration
