Cogane Data Presented at ‘11th International Congress of,Parkinson’s Disease and Disorders’

GODMANCHESTER, England - (5 June 2007) - Phytopharm plc (LSE: PYM) ("Phytopharm" or the "Company") announces today pre-clinical data showing that Cogane(tm) reverses the changes in the area of the brain involved in Parkinson's disease. This data will be presented by Dr Jonathan Brotchie, an internationally recognised expert on Parkinson's disease at 'The 11th International Congress of Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders' 5 June in Istanbul, Turkey and published in The Movement Disorders Society's journal*.

Cogane(tm) reverses the changes in area of the brain involved in Parkinson's disease by inducing the production of neurotrophic factors. These growth factors promote the growth and connectivity of neurones and reverse the atrophy of this area of the brain. This latest study was partly funded by The Cure Parkinson's Trust.

Commenting, Tom Isaacs, co-founder of The Cure Parkinson's Trust said: "Cogane's ability to induce a person's own neurotrophic activity offers a very real prospect of a better treatment for Parkinson's disease. As a patient led organisation, The Cure Parkinson's Trust is very excited about the potential of this product to completely restore motor function to those with the condition. We are delighted our targeted fund allocation in this area of research has been directly involved in these latest findings."

Commenting, Dr Daryl Rees, Chief Executive Officer of Phytopharm, said: "There is an urgent need for new therapeutic approaches to Parkinson's disease. Pre-clinical studies with Cogane(tm), an orally bioavailable neurotrophic factor inducer, have been highly encouraging in reversing the changes in the area of the brain involved in Parkinson's disease, providing hope that Cogane(tm) could restore normal control of movement."
