October 6, 2008 9:01 AM EDT

CombinatoRx, Incorporated (NASDAQ: CRXX), today announced preliminary top-line results from COMET-1, the Company's Phase 2b clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Synavive in subjects with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis.

While there was a trend in favor of Synavive, and an observed dose-response relationship, the combination did not demonstrate statistical significance compared to placebo for WOMAC question #1 measuring pain while walking on a flat surface (the primary endpoint), nor when compared to prednisolone alone. Analyses of the full dataset from the study remain ongoing.

CombinatoRx, Incorporated, a biopharmaceutical company, develops synergistic combinations of approved drugs, with a portfolio of product candidates in Phase II clinical development, using its proprietary combination high throughput screening (cHTS) technology.
