Nymox Application Validated:

HASBROUCK HEIGHTS, N.J., Sept. 14, 2017 -- Nymox Pharmaceutical Corporation (NASDAQ:NYMX) is pleased to announce today that the European Member States for Nymox's Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) for Fexapotide Triflutate for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH, prostate enlargement) have accepted the Company’s MAA. With this validation, the Nymox application is complete and regulators from the member countries formally acknowledge that the Company has provided the requested documentation necessary for the MAA to be reviewed.

"With the acceptance of the MAA, the Member States officially acknowledge that the Company has provided all the required information and documentation necessary for the formal review process. The acceptance of this MAA is an important milestone in our goal to bring this first in class treatment candidate to countless men suffering from the symptoms of BPH. Nymox looks forward to working with European regulators to help patients with BPH attain the benefits that treatment with Fexapotide Triflutate may offer." said Dr. Paul Averback, CEO of Nymox.

Fexapotide Triflutate is Nymox's first in class injectable treatment candidate for BPH and low grade localized prostate cancer. The drug is given as a virtually painless injection with no anesthesia, analgesia or catheterization, and is an office procedure which takes a few minutes to administer.

Fexapotide has been in development for over a decade and has been found in trials to not only show clinically meaningful and durable relief of BPH symptoms, but also to show a major reduction in the incidence of prostate cancer, compared to placebo and compared to the known and expected normal incidence of the disease. The clinical program has also shown in long-term studies >80% reduction in the number of crossover Fexapotide treated patients who required surgery for their BPH as compared to patients who received crossover conventional approved BPH treatments. Fexapotide led to long-term improvement in sexual function as reported by first-line patients who received the new drug.

BPH is extremely common and afflicts middle aged and elderly males, affecting millions of men worldwide with chronic lower urinary tract symptoms, and often requires surgical treatments.
