HASBROUCK HEIGHTS, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 18, 2007 - Nymox Pharmaceutical Corporation (NASDAQ: NYMX) announced today completion of a new 42 month follow-up study of NX-1207 for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The study evaluated symptomatic progress of U.S. patients involved in the Company's two Phase 1-2 studies initiated in 2003. Individuals in the study were assessed for symptomatic improvement, treatment outcomes, and durability of efficacy. Patients in the study were assessed 3 1/2 years after NX-1207 treatment. The Company expects to conclude analysis of the data in the next 1-2 weeks and will be reporting the results once they are completed.

NX-1207 has successfully completed three U.S. trials to date. The company's most recently reported trial, a Phase 2 double-blind, placebo controlled, randomized study, showed positive efficacy and safety results for NX-1207 after 3 months in patients with BPH. Overall, patients treated with NX-1207 showed after 3 months a mean improvement of 9.35 points in AUA Symptom Score values, the standard scale used to evaluate BPH drugs and treatments. This improvement compares favorably to the 3.5 to 5 points reported in published studies of currently approved drugs for BPH and reached statistical significance when compared to placebo. Subjects treated with NX-1207 also showed an overall significant reduction in mean prostate volume. The results of the trial demonstrated the excellent safety and side effect profile of NX-1207. Subjects treated with NX-1207 had no serious side effects. In particular, patients given NX-1207 had no (0%) significant sexual side effects.

BPH afflicts approximately half of men over age 50 and close to 90% of men by age 80. The disorder causes difficulties with urination associated with aging, such as urination at night, urge to void frequently, hesitancy, weak stream, and other problems.
