CytoGenix Announces Successful Completion of Pre-Clinical Anti-Herpes Safety Studies.

Houston, TX (August 3, 2004) CytoGenix, Inc. (CYGX: OTC: BB) ) announced the successful completion of pre-clinical animal safety studies. These standard studies show that the company?s lead DNA anti-herpes topical compound is safe in three species of animals. A third party laboratory conducted the tests operating under FDA Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) regulations and following United States Pharmacopeia (USP) testing standards for topical products.

Dr. Malcolm Skolnick, CytoGenix, Chairman and CEO, states ?We are keenly aware of the urgent need for this product. This accomplishment brings us one-step closer to obtaining FDA authorization to conduct clinical trials of our anti-herpes cream. Rarely does a week go by without receiving an email or telephone call from a herpes sufferer contacting us about the availability of this product. Our anti-herpes cream is designed to be effective against both labial (cold sores) and genital herpes.?

Genital herpes is an epidemic in the US and other parts of the world reports the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) ?Genital herpes?herpes simplex virus type two (HSV-2)?is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases in the United States, with as many as one million people becoming infected each year. While genital herpes continues to spread across all social, economic, racial and ethnic boundaries, prevalence of infection increased most dramatically in teens and young adults. The disease is potentially fatal in newborns and is a major cause of infant blindness. Herpetic infections increase the risk of contracting HIV and can be particularly severe in people with HIV infection. HSV-2 infection is more common in women (approximately one out of four women) than in men (almost one out of five).?
