About RXi Pharmaceuticals Corporation

RXi Pharmaceuticals is a discovery-stage biopharmaceutical company pursuing the development and commercialization of proprietary therapeutics based on RNA interference (RNAi) for the treatment of human diseases. RXi has a comprehensive therapeutic platform that includes both novel RNAi compounds and advanced delivery methods that can potentially be applied for local and systemic applications, against targets that may be undruggable by other modalities. RXi uses its proprietary version of RNAi compounds -- rxRNA -- that provide an advanced alternative to conventional small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and define the next generation of RNAi technology. These include rxRNAoriTM, rxRNAsoloTM, and sd-rxRNATM (or "self delivering" RNA), which are distinct from, and potentially convey significant advantages over, classic siRNA's. RXi Pharmaceuticals believes it is well positioned to compete successfully in the RNAi therapeutics market based on the strength of its next generation therapeutic platform, experienced management team, accomplished Scientific Advisory Board, including Dr. Craig Mello, recipient of the 2006 Nobel Prize for his co-discovery of RNAi, and its broad intellectual property position in RNAi chemistry and delivery. http://www.rxipharma.com
