ZADAXIN PRODUCES SUSTAINED RESPONSES
IN MOST DIFFICULT TO TREAT HEPATITIS B PATIENTS

San Mateo, CA, July 16, 2002 - SciClone Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: SCLN) announced the results of a new study demonstrating that ZADAXIN® (thymalfasin, thymosin alpha 1) helps clear the hepatitis B virus in the most difficult to treat patients, those in the immune tolerant phase of this viral infection. Until this ZADAXIN clinical trial, virtually no treatment has been able to effectively cure hepatitis B in patients in the immune-tolerant phase of the viral infection.

At the end of the 26 weeks of therapy and 52 weeks of follow-up observation, 15.6% of 32 hepatitis B immune-tolerant patients demonstrated a complete response to ZADAXIN therapy in combination with the nucleoside analogue famciclovir. By comparison, there were no responders among the 32 patients in each group that received either famciclovir monotherapy or placebo.

OK....one more round from $2......
