***************************************

Lehman Brothers analyst, Dr. Eric Ende, said favorable
results for the two drugs have only been seen in mice and not
in people, making it far too early to bank on EntreMed's discoveries.

Ende, noting that the drugs are supposed to reduce the size
of tumors, said the NCI report merely indicated that endostatin
inhibited tumor growth. "Inhibition does not equal regression," he said.

"I wouldn't touch this thing (EntreMed shares) until this
stuff not only goes into humans, but shows effectiveness inhumans."

On Tuesday, the stock crumbled after EntreMed's angiostatin
development partner Bristol-Myers said it could no longer
finance development of the drug because it was too difficult to
produce in large enough quantities to conduct clinical trials.

But Bristol-Myers said it retains an option to come back
and help develop angiostatin if EntreMed can produce enough
stable product to be commercially useful.
