2001 OCT 3 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) --

AltaRex Corp. (AXO), a developer of antigen-targeted antibody-based cancer therapeutics, reported a net loss of $7.5 million or $0.28 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2001 compared with a net loss of $4.2 million, or $0.27 per share, for the same period in 2000. All dollars reported are Canadian.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2001, the company recorded a net loss of $13.8 million, or $0.54 per share, compared with a net loss of $8.1 million, or $0.55 per share for the same period in 2000.

The increased net loss is due primarily to the increased spending in manufacturing and clinical development for the company's lead product, OvaRex MAb (oregovomab) for ovarian cancer. The company is scaling up OvaRex production under a development and commercial supply agreement with Abbott Laboratories. The antibody is in the final stages of clinical development prior to the company's filing with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for accelerated approval of OvaRex MAb.

AltaRex's second quarter progress was highlighted by:

* Important clinical findings with its lead product OvaRex MAb

* Issuance of its cornerstone "multiepitopic" patent in the United States for OvaRex MAb
