HOUSTON—November 5, 2015 – Bio-Path Holdings, Inc., (NASDAQ: BPTH) (“Bio-Path”), a biotechnology company developing a liposomal delivery technology for nucleic acid cancer drugs, today announced that Dr. Jorge Cortes, Deputy Chair of the Department of Leukemia at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and Chair of Bio-Path’s Scientific Advisory Board, will present data from Bio-Path’s Phase I and Ib clinical trials of its lead product candidate BP-100-1.01 (Liposomal Grb-2 antisense) in the treatment of blood cancers during a poster session at the 57^th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting in Orlando, Florida.

Details for the poster presentation are as follows:

Title: “Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy of BP-100-1.01 (Liposomal Grb-2 Antisense Oligonucleotide) in Patients with Refractory or Relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), Philadelphia Chromosome Positive Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML), Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL), and Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)”

Session Name: 616. Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Novel Therapy, excluding Transplantation: Poster III

Date: Monday, December 7, 2015

Presentation Time: 6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time

Location: Hall A, Orange County Convention Center

The poster will highlight results from Bio-Path’s Phase I and Ib clinical trials in patients with blood cancers, notably the complete remission (CR) of one patient with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who was treated with BP-100-1.01 in combination with low-dose cytarabine (LDAC) chemotherapy and another patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) who showed significant reduction (81 percent to 5 percent) in bone marrow blasts. The results suggest possible disease inhibition with BP-100-1.01 treatment.

About BP-100-1.01

BP-100-1.01 is a neutral-charge, liposome-incorporated antisense drug substance designed to inhibit Grb-2 protein expression. The protein Grb-2 is essential to cancer cell signaling because it is utilized by oncogenic tyrosine kinases to induce cancer progression. Suppressing the function or expression of Grb-2 should interrupt its vital signaling function and have a therapeutic application in cancer.
