Oncology is the area of medicine that studies the cause, diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Since 1990, more than 18,000,000 Americans have been diagnosed with some form of cancer. The American Cancer Society estimates over to 1.3 million Americans will be diagnosed with cancer in 2005. Over half a million cancer patients will die this year.

Eximias’ lead oncology product, THYMITAQ® (nolatrexed), completed enrollment in a pivotal Phase III clinical trial for inoperable primary liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma or HCC) in April 2005. HCC is a rapidly fatal disease, and there is no FDA-approved treatment in the United States or in the European Union.

In August 2005, the Company announced that the Phase III clinical study evaluating THYMITAQ® in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (inoperable primary liver cancer) failed to achieve its primary endpoint, a survival benefit versus doxorubicin. Additional analyses have been conducted with the data from the Phase III study to better understand the results of the survival analysis and steer future activities.
