About Agennix
Agennix AG is a publicly listed biopharmaceutical company that is focused on the
development of novel therapies that have the potential to substantially improve
the length and quality of life of critically ill patients in areas of major
unmet medical need. The Company's most advanced program is talactoferrin, an
oral immunotherapy that has demonstrated activity in randomized, double-blind,
placebo-controlled Phase II studies in non-small cell lung cancer and in severe
sepsis. Talactoferrin is currently in Phase III clinical trials in non-small
cell lung cancer, and a Phase II/III trial with talactoferrin in severe sepsis
is underway. Other clinical development programs include RGB-286638, a
multi-targeted kinase inhibitor in Phase I testing, and a topical gel form of
talactoferrin for diabetic foot ulcers. Agennix's registered seat is in
Heidelberg, Germany. The Company has three sites of operation: Planegg/Munich,
Germany; Princeton, New Jersey and Houston, Texas. For additional information,

This press release contains forward-looking statements, which express the
current beliefs and expectations of the management of Agennix AG. Such
statements are based on current expectations and are subject to risks and
uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause future
results, performance or achievements to differ significantly from the results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Actual results could differ materially depending on a number of
factors, and we caution investors not to place undue reliance on the
forward-looking statements contained in this press release. Even if the results
from our later stage trials with talactoferrin, including the ongoing FORTIS-M

studies or that such studies will yield results sufficient for approval.
