About Soligenix, Inc.
Soligenix is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on
developing and commercializing products to treat rare diseases
where there is an unmet medical need. Our BioTherapeutics business
segment is developing SGX301 as a novel photodynamic therapy
utilizing safe visible light for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell
lymphoma, our first-in-class innate defense regulator (IDR)
technology, dusquetide (SGX942) for the treatment of oral mucositis
in head and neck cancer, and proprietary formulations of oral
beclomethasone 17,21-dipropionate (BDP) for the
prevention/treatment of gastrointestinal (GI) disorders
characterized by severe inflammation including pediatric Crohn's
disease (SGX203) and acute radiation enteritis (SGX201).
Our Vaccines/BioDefense business segment includes active
development programs for RiVax®, our ricin toxin vaccine
candidate, OrbeShield®, our GI acute radiation syndrome
therapeutic candidate and SGX943, our therapeutic candidate for
antibiotic resistant and emerging infectious disease. The
development of our vaccine programs incorporates the use of our
proprietary heat stabilization platform technology, known as
ThermoVax®. To date, this business segment has
been supported with government grant and contract funding from the
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and
the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority
(BARDA).

This press release may contain forward-looking statements that
reflect Soligenix, Inc.'s current expectations about its future
results, performance, prospects and opportunities, including but
not limited to, potential market sizes, patient populations and
clinical trial enrollment. Statements that are not historical
facts, such as "anticipates," "estimates," "believes," "hopes,"
"intends," "plans," "expects," "goal," "may," "suggest," "will,"
"potential," or similar expressions, are forward-looking
statements. These statements are subject to a number of
risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual
events or results in future periods to differ materially from what
is expressed in, or implied by, these statements. Soligenix
cannot assure you that it will be able to successfully develop,
achieve regulatory approval for or commercialize products based on
its technologies, particularly in light of the significant
uncertainty inherent in developing therapeutics and vaccines
against bioterror threats, conducting preclinical and clinical
trials of therapeutics and vaccines, obtaining regulatory approvals
and manufacturing therapeutics and vaccines, that product
development and commercialization efforts will not be reduced or
discontinued due to difficulties or delays in clinical trials or
due to lack of progress or positive results from research and
development efforts, that it will be able to successfully obtain
any further funding to support product development and
commercialization efforts, including grants and awards, maintain
its existing grants which are subject to performance requirements,
enter into any biodefense procurement contracts with the US
Government or other countries, that it will be able to compete with
larger and better financed competitors in the biotechnology
industry, that changes in health care practice, third party
reimbursement limitations and Federal and/or state health care
reform initiatives will not negatively affect its business, or that
the US Congress may not pass any legislation that would provide
additional funding for the Project BioShield program. In addition,
there can be no assurance as to timing or success of the Phase 3
clinical trial of SGX942 (dusquetide) as a treatment for oral
mucositis in patients with head and neck cancer receiving
chemoradiation therapy or the Phase 3 clinical trial of SGX301
(synthetic hypericin) for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell
lymphoma. Further, there can be no assurance that RiVax®
will qualify for a biodefense Priority Review Voucher (PRV) or that
the prior sales of PRVs will be indicative of any potential sales
price for a PRV for RiVax®. These and other risk factors
are described from time to time in filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, including, but not limited to, Soligenix's
reports on Forms 10-Q and 10-K. Unless required by law,
Soligenix assumes no obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future
events.
