    -- "Measuring Reverse Cholesterol Transport and Insulin-Mediated Glucose

       Utilization In Vivo in Animal Models and Humans: Pathway Fluxes as

       Therapeutic Targets". This presentation reviewed the role of

       critical pathways, including RCT, in drug discovery and development.

Dr. Hellerstein stated, "The importance of measuring changes in RCT in the intact animal or patient is highlighted by recent clinical failures in the HDL/atherosclerosis field, which have left a therapeutic void. KineMed's technology can become an integral part of efforts to discover and develop promising agents that treat and reverse atherosclerosis, thereby positioning KineMed as a leader in this field."

RCT is one of the many pathways for which KineMed has the unique technology and IP to measure in intact animals and patients. The RCT technology is currently being used by KineMed and its Pharma partners in preclinical studies as a target for screening candidate compounds, validating target activity, selecting among leads, and optimizing treatment regimes. The Company is also working with Pharma partners in clinical trials to rapidly demonstrate on-mechanism therapeutic effect in patients.
