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 Specialized
BioTherapeutics business segment is developing and moving toward
potential commercialization of HyBryte™ (SGX301 or synthetic
hypericin sodium) as a novel photodynamic therapy utilizing safe
visible light for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma
(CTCL). With a successful Phase 3 study completed, regulatory
approval is being sought and commercialization activities for this
product candidate are being advanced initially in the U.S.
Development programs in this business segment also include
expansion of synthetic hypericin (SGX302) into psoriasis, our
first-in-class innate defense regulator (IDR) technology,
dusquetide (SGX942) for the treatment of inflammatory diseases,
including oral mucositis in head and neck cancer, and (SGX945) in
Behçet's Disease. The Company also is developing proprietary
formulations of oral beclomethasone 17,21-dipropionate (BDP) for
the prevention/treatment of gastrointestinal (GI) disorders
characterized by severe inflammation such as pediatric Crohn's
disease (SGX203).
Our Public Health Solutions business segment includes active
development programs for RiVax®, our ricin toxin vaccine
candidate, as well as our vaccine programs targeting filoviruses
(such as Marburg, Sudan and Ebola)
and CiVax™, our vaccine candidate for the prevention of COVID-19
(caused by SARS-CoV-2). 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), the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) 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, and include the
expected amount and use of proceeds from the offering and the
expected closing date of the offering. 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 U.S. 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 U.S. 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 the timing or success of any of its clinical/preclinical
trials. Despite the statistically significant result achieved in
the HyBryte™ (SGX301) Phase 3 clinical trial for the treatment of
cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, there can be no assurance that a
marketing authorization from the FDA or EMA will be successful.
Notwithstanding the result in the HyBryte™ (SGX301) Phase 3
clinical trial for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma and
the Phase 2a clinical trial of SGX302 for the treatment of
psoriasis, there can be no assurance as to the timing or success of
the clinical trials of SGX302 for the treatment of psoriasis.
Despite the positive efficacy results demonstrated in the Phase 2
and 3 clinical studies of SGX942 for the treatment of oral
mucositis due to chemoradiation therapy for head and neck cancer,
there can be no assurance as to the timing or success of the
clinical trials of SGX945 for the treatment of Behçet's Disease.
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®. Also, no assurance can be provided
that the Company will receive or continue to receive non-dilutive
government funding from grants and contracts that have been or may
be awarded or for which the Company will apply in the future. These
and other risk factors are described from time to time in filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), 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.
