Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City, Tuesday, February 10th 2009 ARLINGTON, Va., Feb. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Doug Burkett, PhD, Principal Executive Officer of Champions Biotechnology, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: CSBR), a company engaged in the development of advanced preclinical platforms and tumor specific data to enhance the value of oncology drugs, will present at BIO CEO & Investor Conference Tuesday, February 10, 2009 at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City. The presentation will be held at 10:30am in the Jade Room. Dr. Burkett's presentation will focus on Champions' developing pipeline of value enhanced oncology drugs. Dr. Burkett will also highlight the company's Biomerk Tumorgraft(TM) platform, which pre-qualifies its pipeline to be those oncology drug candidates that offer the best opportunity, either singularly or in combination, for clinical success. About Champions Biotechnology, Inc. Champions Biotechnology, Inc. is engaged in the development of advanced preclinical platforms and predictive tumor specific data to enhance and accelerate the value of oncology drugs. The Company's Preclinical Platform is a novel approach based upon the implantation of primary human tumors in immune deficient mice followed by propagation of the resulting engraftments (Biomerk Tumorgrafts(TM)) in a manner that preserves the biological characteristics of the original human tumor. Early studies suggest that unlike traditional xenografts these Tumorgrafts closely reflect human cancer biology and their response to drugs is predictive of clinical outcomes in cancer patients. Champions Biotechnology leverages its preclinical platform to evaluate drug candidates and to develop a portfolio of novel therapeutic candidates through pre-clinical trials. As drugs progress through this early stage of development, the Company plans to sell, partner or license them to pharmaceutical and/or biotechnology companies, as appropriate. The Company also offers its predictive preclinical platform and tumor specific data to physicians for personalized patient care and to companies for evaluation of oncology drugs in models that integrate prognostic testing with biomarker discovery.
