>>OXFORD, UK, Dec. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Oxford GlycoSciences Plc (LSE: OGS; Nasdaq: OGSI) announced today that Pfizer Inc (NYSE: PFE - news) has extended its research agreement.

Pfizer has agreed to extend the research agreement with OGS, which was renewed in December 2000, and provide additional research funding for a further year. OGS will continue to apply its industrial scale proteomics technology to the discovery and utility of biomarkers in the area of atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease and certain other undisclosed targets and indications. The programme will also focus on refining the use of the biomarkers.

The terms of the December 2000 agreement will continue to apply, under which OGS has the right to commercialise any diagnostic products arising from the collaboration. As part of the extension, Pfizer has renewed its licenses to the OGS human serum and cerebrospinal fluid expression databases and to PC Rosetta(TM), the OGS proprietary data analysis software tool.

Michael Kranda, OGS' Chief Executive Officer said, ``We are particularly pleased with the extension of our proteomics agreement with Pfizer. It confirms the positive outcome of our long-term collaboration''.<<
