Here was the Nov. '99 Press report - before the more rigid standards were used.

SYNSORB Biotech Inc. Announces Company Receives Final
Interim Analysis Report for SYNSORB Cd(R) Phase II
Clinical Trial
NOVEMBER 1, 1999

CALGARY, ALBERTA-- Company also reports on progress of SYNSORB Cd(R) clinical
development plan

SYNSORB Biotech Inc. ("SYNSORB") (TSE: SYB, Nasdaq: SYBB) after
receiving the final report on the interim analysis of the SYNSORB
Cd(R) Phase II clinical trial, reports on the Company's recent
progress in the development of SYNSORB Cd(R) for the treatment of
recurrent Clostridium difficile Associated Diarrhea (CDAD).

The primary objective and expectation of the Phase II trial was to
determine whether SYNSORB Cd(R) could reduce the recurrence rate
in CDAD patients by 50%. In fact, the final report on the interim
analysis of the first 103 patients has confirmed that the group
receiving a 16g/day dose of SYNSORB Cd(R) experienced a very
significant 80% reduction in the rate of recurrence compared to
the group who received the placebo.
