Investigators Report Genta's Antisense Drug Combined With Standard Chemotherapy Cures Human Lymphomas
and Breast Cancers in Mouse Models



Results with G3139 Support Ongoing Clinical Program

LEXINGTON, Mass., April 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Genta Incorporated
(Nasdaq: GNTA) announced that scientists reported the results of preclinical
studies with Genta's lead product in development, G3139, at the recently
concluded 90th annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research
(AACR) held in Philadelphia, Pa.
G3139 was designed to reduce the Bcl-2 protein level in cancer through an
"antisense" mechanism that specifically targets the bcl-2 gene product. In
several human cancers, the protein produced by the bcl-2 gene is believed to
be a major factor in resistance to treatment with many anticancer drugs. (snip)

In the interim, of course, we've learned that the cold antibody trial will be a part of the CLTR NDA submission. Thanks again for your efforts.
