The vaccine candidate, also known as AV7909, consists of BioThrax<sup>(R)</sup> (Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed) in combination with a novel immunostimulatoryoligodeoxynucleotide compound, CPG 7909, and is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1b clinical trial for safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity. The FDA&#8217;s Fast Track Development Program provides for expedited regulatory review of drugs and biologics that treat serious or life threatening diseases and that demonstrate the potential to address unmet medical needs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Comments expressed during tour of South African clinical trial site  where Emergent’s TB vaccine candidate is expected to complete enrollment  in April for its Phase IIb efficacy study</p>
<p>ROCKVILLE, Md., Feb 25, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) — Emergent BioSolutions  Inc. (NYSE:EBS) announced that a joint delegation of Members of the <a href="http://www.europarl.europa.eu/parliament/public/staticDisplay.do;jsessionid=C9BF3D9E775604246C560DAE43EF188F.node2?id=146">European Parliament</a> (MEPs) and representatives from the <a href="http://investing.businessweek.com/research/stocks/private/snapshot.asp?privcapId=47021049">Oxford-Emergent Tuberculosis Consortium</a> (OETC) today visited the trial site where MVA85A, the world’s most  clinically advanced tuberculosis (TB) vaccine candidate in development,  is being studied in a Phase IIb infant efficacy clinical trial. This  clinical trial in Worcester, South Africa is being conducted by the <a href="http://www.satvi.uct.ac.za/">University of Cape Town’s South African Tuberculosis Vaccine Initiative</a> (SATVI), in partnership with OETC and <a href="http://www.aeras.org/home/home.php">Aeras</a>.</p>
<p>“I am very anxious to see a new TB vaccine licensed and I am  delighted that this trial of this promising new vaccine candidate is  taking place,” said MEP Michael Cashman, Chairman of the South Africa  Delegation of the European Parliament. “It is vital for South Africa  that a new vaccine is developed as soon as possible, especially for  infants and those with HIV. If this trial is successful, South Africa  will benefit and so will the rest of the world. Too many lives are lost  to tuberculosis and I am pleased to see so many public and private  bodies coming together to deliver what could be the first new TB vaccine  in 90 years.”</p>
<p>“<a href="http://www.emergentbiosolutions.com/">Emergent BioSolutions</a> is proud to be part of OETC, a joint venture established with the  University of Oxford in 2008, to further develop the most clinically  advanced investigational TB vaccine,” said Allen Shofe, OETC Board  Member and Senior Vice President Corporate Affairs of Emergent  BioSolutions. “This collaboration is an integral part of a multi-pronged  approach to alleviating the global burden of tuberculosis. Through our  involvement in OETC, Emergent is given an opportunity to touch the lives  of many in fulfillment of our company mission – to protect life.”</p>
<p>The MEPs learned firsthand about the TB vaccine candidate and progress of the clinical trial from lead scientist and developer <a href="http://www.oxfordmartin.ox.ac.uk/people/290">Dr. Helen McShane from the University of Oxford.</a> “We are extremely pleased with the progress of the trial,” said Dr.  McShane. “We anticipate that the trial, which involves administering  MVA85A as a booster to the BCG vaccine, will reach the enrollment target  of 2,784 infants by the end of April 2011. The follow-up period and  study results are expected to be completed in 2012.”</p>
<p>The delegation also observed the vaccination of infants as part of the trial and visited the hospital facilities with <a href="http://www.satvi.uct.ac.za/index.php/201011095/Leadership.html">Dr. Hassan Mahomed, SATVI’s Principal Investigator</a> on the study.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>By Marjorie Censer</em></p>
<p>Monday, January 3, 2011</p>
<p>Fuad El-Hibri has lived in all sorts of exotic locales, working for Citicorp in Saudi Arabia, consulting for <a href="http://www.boozallen.com/">Booz Allen Hamilton </a>in Indonesia and establishing mobile telecommunications businesses in Russia, Venezuela and El Salvador.</p>
<p>But getting started in his current position as chief executive of Rockville-based pharmaceutical company <a href="http://www.emergentbiosolutions.com/">Emergent BioSolutions</a> took him to a far more mundane location. It was at a public auction in  Lansing, Mich., in 1998 that El-Hibri offered a $25 million package of  cash and commitments to privatize a government facility that was  producing an anthrax vaccine.</p>
<p>Since then, he’s built what is now known as Emergent into a local  pharmaceutical company that posted earnings of $31.1 million last year.</p>
<p>El-Hibri took an unusual path into the industry, spending much of his  career in telecommunications. Born to a Lebanese father and German  mother, he split his childhood between Lebanon and Germany before  attending <a href="http://www.stanford.edu/">Stanford University</a>. El-Hibri quickly moved on to a graduate degree, heading to <a href="http://www.mba.yale.edu/">Yale’s business school</a>.</p>
<p>Though he wanted to start his own business, El-Hibri wanted to gain  experience first. After marrying, he and his wife moved to Saudi Arabia  so El-Hibri could work for Citicorp. After several years, he moved to  consulting giant Booz Allen Hamilton and spent about three years in  Jakarta, Indonesia. In one instance, he helped a state-owned petroleum  company in Malaysia open up mini-convenience stores alongside its gas  stations.</p>
<p>By the late 1980s, El-Hibri was ready to return to the United States,  where he opened his own Potomac-based consulting firm. He quickly began  working with the Moscow City Telephone Network and helped the company  build and implement a mobile telecommunications network that’s still in  use today. Partnering with his father — who had worked in  telecommunications — El-Hibri eventually sold his interest in the firm  and reinvested in a Venezuelan mobile network. He repeated the work in  El Salvador.</p>
<p>What made El-Hibri different from other entrepreneurs was his  interest in not just making money but also integrating the business into  the local economy, said Brian Kim, whose company invested with El-Hibri  in both his Venezuelan and El Salvadoran enterprises.</p>
<p>“He had a real sense that the company had [to do] something else —  other than creating value for its shareholders,” Kim said. “He took a  very local approach.”</p>
<p>Not long after, El-Hibri got involved with a business venture to sell  $50 million worth of anthrax vaccine to the Saudi Arabian government,  which was worried about its troops. He immediately took an interest in  the field, and, after leading a management buyout of a biotechnology  firm in Britain, El-Hibri set out to purchase the only facility  producing a <a href="http://www.fda.gov/">Food and Drug Administration</a>-licensed anthrax vaccine in the United States.</p>
<p>He headed to Lansing, where the governor had announced the state  would privatize its facility, which also had a licensed rabies vaccine,  among others. El-Hibri and his partners submitted the winning bid and  began renovating the facility, which was relicensed in 2001.</p>
<p>Emergent, which has its corporate headquarters in Rockville, soon  added locations, which now extend from Seattle to Munich to Singapore.  Best known for its anthrax vaccine, for which it received in July a  contract worth up to $107 million, Emergent is also working on a  pandemic flu vaccine and a tuberculosis vaccine.</p>
<p>The most recent contract, from the Department of Health and Human  Services Office of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development  Authority, is meant to ready the vaccine for large-scale manufacture.</p>
<p>But El-Hibri doesn’t plan to end his career with pharmaceuticals and  said he’d next like to work in the environmental field. (In 2001,  El-Hibri launched the <a href="http://www.elhibrifoundation.org/">El-Hibri Charitable Foundation</a>, which focuses on interfaith dialogue and peace education.)</p>
<p>Roberto Smith-Perera, a former minister of transport and  communications in Venezuela who partnered with El-Hibri on both the  Venezuelan and El Salvadoran cellular businesses, credited El-Hibri’s  geographically and culturally diverse background with teaching him how  to handle virtually any kind of business.</p>
<p>He’s the kind of person “that specializes in not . . . being a  specialist,” said Smith-Perera. “He’s the ultimate project developer.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>ROCKVILLE, Md., Dec 27, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) — Emergent BioSolutions  Inc. (NYSE:EBS) today announced the initiation of a Phase I clinical  trial for NuThrax<sup>TM</sup> (Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed with CPG 7909  Adjuvant), also known as AV7909, with the dosing of the first subject.  The product candidate, a third generation vaccine being developed as  part of Emergent’s anthrax franchise, consists of BioThrax<sup>(R)</sup> (Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed) in combination with a novel immunostimulatory compound, CPG 7909.</p>
<p>“Emergent is pleased to commence this clinical trial in support of  the U.S. government’s multiple product strategy to strengthen the  nation’s biodefense capabilities,” said Daniel J. Abdun-Nabi, president  and chief operating officer of Emergent BioSolutions. “We believe this  third generation anthrax vaccine has the potential to exhibit advanced  characteristics such as requiring fewer doses, generating an enhanced  immune response, and having a favorable shelf life. If successful, this  could be an attractive candidate for the government’s growing arsenal of  medical countermeasures.”</p>
<p>The Phase I clinical trial, a parallel arm dose-ranging study, is  designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the  vaccine candidate. The study is being conducted in multiple sites  within the U.S. and involves 105 healthy volunteers. Preliminary data  from this study is expected to be available in the third quarter of  2011.</p>
<p>This Phase I trial is being conducted with support from a development  contract that is jointly administered under contract number  HHSN272200800051C by the <a href="http://www.niaid.nih.gov/Pages/default.aspx">National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases</a> (NIAID), a component of the <a href="http://www.nih.gov/">National Institutes of Health</a> (NIH), and the Office of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) of the <a href="http://www.hhs.gov/">Department of Health and Human Services</a> (HHS).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>ROCKVILLE, MD, September 17, 2010</strong> – Emergent  BioSolutions Inc. (NYSE:EBS) announced today that it has signed a  contract, valued at up to $186.6 million, with the Biomedical Advanced  Research and Development Authority (BARDA) of the Department of Health  and Human Services (HHS), for the development of a recombinant  protective antigen (rPA) anthrax vaccine.  This five year cost plus  fixed fee development contract consists of a two-year base period of  performance valued at approximately $51 million, three successive  one-year option periods valued at approximately $126 million and funding  for optional non-clinical studies valued at approximately $9 million.</p>
<p>“We applaud the U.S. Government’s commitment to the biodefense  industry and to the development of additional medical countermeasures  using multiple technologies and additional sites to address the  acknowledged anthrax threat,” said <a href="http://investors.emergentbiosolutions.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=202582&amp;p=irol-govBio&amp;ID=158319">Fuad El-Hibri</a>,  chairman and chief executive officer of Emergent BioSolutions.  “This  award solidifies Emergent’s anthrax franchise and reaffirms our position  as a leading supplier to, and developer for, the U.S. government of  anthrax biomedical countermeasures. We are enthusiastic about the role  we serve in addressing this need and in creating jobs and expanding  economies within the local communities where we operate.”</p>
<p>Under the contract, the base value will fund activities related to  process characterization and assay validation, as well as formulation  and stability studies.  Milestone-based options include completion of a  Phase II clinical study and non-clinical efficacy studies, process  validation, as well as consistency lot manufacture<strong>.</strong> Emergent has developed this comprehensive plan as a foundation to  advance its rPA anthrax vaccine candidate in preparation for pivotal  studies that would potentially lead to licensure application with the  U.S. Food and Drug Administration.</p>
<p>The company anticipates recognizing revenues from this award in the  fourth quarter of 2010 of approximately $2 million with no major impact  on pretax earnings.</p>
<p>Emergent’s rPA anthrax vaccine candidate is a purified recombinant  protective antigen protein formulated with an alum adjuvant and is  designed to induce antibodies that neutralize anthrax toxins.  It is  based on the pioneering work of the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute  of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) and has been the subject of two  research and development grants totaling approximately $100 million by  the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Key news developments will affect shares of these two companies who help meet the critical needs of the United States and its allies by developing and commercializing medical countermeasures against biological and chemical weapons.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The two companies which waited until late after hours on Monday to announce that the Biomedical Research and Development Authority had informed them of some negative news.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After hours on Monday, PharmAthene, Inc. (NYSE Amex: PIP) a biodefense company specializing in the development and commercialization of medical countermeasures against chemical and biological threats, announced that the Department of Health and Human Services Biomedical Research and Development Authority (BARDA) has canceled its request for proposal (RFP) for Recombinant Protective Antigen Anthrax Vaccine for the Strategic National Stockpile (RFP BARDA 08-15).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">PharmAthene was informed of BARDA&#8217;s decision during a meeting late Monday afternoon with BARDA representatives.  BARDA issued a press release after the close of the securities markets announcing that it will cancel RFP BARDA 08-15 because it did not believe vaccine developers submitting proposals in response to the request for proposal (RFP) could have product ready for FDA licensure within 8 years.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In similar news&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Emergent BioSolutions Inc. (NYSE:EBS) announced today that it has been advised by the Office of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) that the Request for Proposal (RFP) for the procurement of rPA vaccines has been cancelled in favor of a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for rPA vaccine development. According to BARDA officials, BARDA took this action after a technical evaluation panel determined that none of the vaccine developers submitting proposals could meet the Project BioShield statutory requirement of having a product ready for licensure within 8 years.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Simultaneously, BARDA issued an amendment to BAA 09-34 to enable companies to submit proposals to obtain development funding for rPA vaccine candidates. The due date for all proposals is February 1, 2010. During a meeting with company officials today, BARDA strongly encouraged Emergent to submit a proposal to this BAA. Emergent intends to submit its proposal by the end of this year.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">While the decision by BARDA has no impact on the company’s $400 million procurement contract with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for the manufacture and delivery of 14.5 million doses of BioThrax® into the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS). Investors are still likely to react negatively to the news.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After selling dies down, there may be a bounce trade opportunity for EBS followers since the company feels that &#8220;BioThrax remains a critical and long-term countermeasure for the US government,” said <a href="http://fuadelhibri.jaiku.com">Fuad El-Hibri</a>, chairman and chief executive officer of Emergent BioSolutions. “In addition, based upon encouragement by the USG, we believe our rPA vaccine is well-positioned to obtain a development contract under this BAA. Our anthrax franchise solidifies Emergent as a leader in the development and supply of anthrax medical countermeasures.”</p>

<div style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://cms.newsinator.com/system/datas/1146/original/El-Hibri_Fuad.jpg"><img src="http://cms.newsinator.com/system/datas/1146/original/El-Hibri_Fuad.jpg" alt="El-hibri_fuad" width="150" /></a><a href="http://fuadelhibri.tumblr.com"></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://fuadelhibri.tumblr.com">Fuad El-Hibri</a></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The Office of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority has advised Emergent BioSolutions that while BARDA&#8217;s Request for Proposal has been canceled, Emergent is encouraged to submit a proposal for the office&#8217;s Broad Agency Announcement.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">BARDA canceled the RFP for the procurement for rPA vaccines after a technical evaluation panel determined that no proposals submitted by vaccine developers could meet the ProjectBioShield statutory requirement of having the product ready for licensure within eight years.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">An amendment issued by BARDA to BAA 09-34 at the same time, however, enable companies to submit proposals to obtain development funding for rPA vaccine candidates, which Emergent has been strongly encouraged to do by BARDA.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Emergent plans to submit its proposal to the BAA by the end of this year, in front of the due date of February 1, 2010 for the proposals.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This announcement also does not impact Emergent&#8217;s $400 million procurement with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to manufacture and deliver 14.5 million doses of BioThrax for the Strategic National Stockpile.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“With this action, BioThrax remains a critical and long-term countermeasure for the US government,” Fuad El-Hibri, chairman and chief executive officer of Emergent BioSolutions, said. “In addition, based upon encouragement by the USG, we believe our rPA vaccine is well-positioned to obtain a development contract under this BAA.  Our anthrax franchise solidifies Emergent as a leader in the development and supply of anthrax medical countermeasures.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">BioThrax is currently being delivered under this contract with an expected completion of deliveries by September 2011. BioThrax is the only FDA licensed vaccine for the prevention of anthrax diseases.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“We believe that BioThrax will remain a premier product based on its recent enhancements, such as four-year dating, a reduced vaccination schedule and intramuscular route of administration, together with the potential for a further reduction in the vaccination schedule to a 3-dose primary series with a 3-year boost,&#8221; Daniel J.Abdun-Nabi, president and chief operating officer of Emergent BioSolutions, said. &#8220;BioThrax continues to be the product of choice for the USG and other customers seeking to address the anthrax threat.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">BARDA and Emergent are also in separate talks for a contract that would see BARDAA fund scale-up and related activities to obtain FDA licensure for large-scale production of BioThrax at Emergent&#8217;s new 50,000-square-foot Lansing, Mich., manufacturing facility.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;I am proud that Lansing remains home to America&#8217;s first line of defense against what experts say is the single biggest bioterror threat, anthrax,&#8221; U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers, MI-08, said. &#8220;The good news about the cancellation of this particular proposal is HHS recommitted itself to the Lansing-made anthrax vaccine and has opened a new proposal for a next-generation anthrax vaccine for which Emergent has indicated it will compete.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;Rest assured, I will continue working to strengthen our nation&#8217;s existing bioterror preparedness measures and protect national security jobs in Lansing.&#8221;</p>
