DNAPrint Genomics Enters Into Research Agreement With Harvard Affiliate Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Company Moving Forward in Development of PT-401 Lead Drug Product SARASOTA, FL -- (MARKET WIRE) -- July 18, 2006 -- DNAPrint Genomics, Inc. (OTCBB: DNAG) today announced that it has entered into a Sponsored Research Agreement with the Harvard Medical School's Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) for research on a new, more potent and longer-acting form of the anemia drug Erythropoietin (EPO). "Beth Israel Deaconess will determine the pharmacokinetic and pharmacological properties of our PT-401 lead drug that we have in our product pipeline," stated Hector J. Gomez, M.D., Ph. D., Chairman and Chief Medical Officer of DNAPrint Genomics and Company's DNAPrint Pharmaceuticals subsidiary. "We expect that the research will provide data that will be included in the Company's anticipated future filings with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for PT-401, a 'Super EPO' that is a more powerful version of the existing drug." Under the terms of the agreement, DNAPrint Genomics will provide Beth Israel Deaconess $600,000 in funding for the research. One half of the amount has already been paid with $150,000 due Jan. 1, 2007. The balance is to be paid upon completion of the research. In April 2005, DNAPrint Genomics announced that it had received an exclusive worldwide license from BIDMC to develop PT-401. The EPO market is growing at an average annual rate of 21%. Leading participants in the existing monomer EPO market include Amgen, Johnson & Johnson and Roche. "Through our ongoing working relationship with BIDMC, we are continuing to make advances in the development of PT-401," stated DNAPrint President and Chief Executive Officer Richard Gabriel. "Erythropoietin is currently produced by major pharmaceutical companies and targets a $10 billion worldwide market. We anticipate making inroads into this market with PT-401." About Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center is a patient care, research and teaching affiliate of Harvard Medical School and ranks fourth in National Institutes of Health funding among independent hospitals nationwide. BIDMC is clinically affiliated with the Joslin Diabetes Center and is a research partner of the Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center. BIDMC is the official hospital of the Boston Red Sox.
