rapidly progressive (eight and six months, respectively). Two other patients experienced stabilization of their disease, one with colorectal cancer and one with non-small cell lung cancer, each lasting three months.

Adherex is currently evaluating the synergy of ADH-1 in combination with chemotherapy in a Phase I trial of ADH-1 in three separate combinations: ADH-1 + docetaxel (Taxotere(R)), ADH-1 + carboplatin, and ADH-1 + capecitabine (Xeloda(R)). A Phase I study of ADH-1 in combination with melphalan for the treatment of melanoma is expected to initiate in the coming weeks. In addition to the European Phase Ib/II study of single-agent ADH-1 to be presented today, the Company has also completed patient enrollment in a North American Phase II study of single-agent ADH-1 and data from that trial is expected to be presented at an appropriate scientific venue in 2007.

About Adherex Technologies

Adherex Technologies Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the discovery and development of novel cancer therapeutics. We aim to be a leader in developing innovative treatments that address important unmet medical needs in cancer. We currently have multiple products in the clinical stage of development, including eniluracil, ADH-1 and sodium thiosulfate (STS). Eniluracil, an oral dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) inhibitor, was previously under development by GlaxoSmithKline for oncology indications. ADH-1, our lead biotechnology compound, selectively targets N-cadherin, a protein present on certain tumor cells and established blood vessels that feed solid tumors. STS, a drug from our specialty pharmaceuticals pipeline, protects against the disabling hearing loss that can often result from treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy drugs. With a diversified portfolio of unique preclinical and clinical-stage cancer compounds and a management team with expertise in identifying, developing and commercializing novel cancer therapeutics, Adherex
