( . The day 90 median change from baselin...)DP-b99 Phase IIb Trial Results to be Presented at the European,Stroke Conference,Health

The trial enrolled patients within the first 9 hours following appearance of stroke symptoms. The data indicate that the effect of DP-b99 on recovery was uniform across the full 9h window, confirming the wide therapeutic window for DP-b99.

The favorable safety and tolerability profile of DP-b99 was confirmed and is in line with D-Pharm's previous clinical experience from the Phase I and IIa studies. There were no significant differences in the number or type of serious adverse events, mortality rate or death causes between the DP-b99 and placebo groups.

These results show that DP-b99 doubled the chances to recover from ischemic stroke, has at least a 9hr therapeutic window and is safe. D-Pharm is planning to commence a pivotal Phase III study of DP-b99 in 2008.
