Cleveland BioLabs recently announced the results of a study of the efficacy of Protectan CBLB612, one of its radiation protectors, in an animal bone marrow stem cell transplantation model. Peripheral blood from CBLB612-treated donors rescued 100% of lethally irradiated mice from bone marrow deficiency. The rescuing effect of the peripheral blood of the treated mice was equivalent to that of conventional bone marrow transplantation.

The Company has two lead compounds in late stages of development. Curaxin CBLC102 is an orally administered small molecule designed to kill tumor cells by simultaneously targeting two key regulators of apoptosis. The Company has an ongoing Phase II trial with CBLC102 in hormone refractory prostate cancer.

Cleveland BioLabs' other lead compound, Protectan CBLB502, is a modified protein of a microbe that protects cells from regulated cell death. The Company recently submitted CBLB502 to the Department of Defense in response to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for medical radiation countermeasures to treat gastrointestinal effects of acute radiation syndrome. The RFP award would provide funding for development of the countermeasure through FDA approval, as well as a commitment to purchase up to 500,000 doses, thereafter.

Cleveland BioLabs management will be available for meetings with investors on May 30 and 31 in New York.
