AVI BioPharma

AVI BioPharma is an emerging biopharmaceutical company and a pioneer in the development of therapeutic products based upon three platform technologies: - therapeutic cancer vaccines,

- gene-targeted drugs (antisense), and,

- drug delivery technologies.

The Company focuses its three platform technologies on two important clinical areas, cancer and cardiovascular disease. The Company is in late-stage development with Avicine, its cancer vaccine, which the Company believes may be applicable to many cancer types. The Company also has developed Neu-Genes(R), a patented class of antisense compounds, which may prove to be useful in the treatment of a wide range of human diseases. The Company has developed a new intracellular drug delivery technology, CytoPorter(TM), which may be useful with many FDA-approved drugs as well as with drugs in

development.
