NORTH BRUNSWICK, N.J.--(Business Wire)--
CEO Thomas A. Moore ofAdvaxis, Inc., (OTCBB: ADXS), the live, attenuated
Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) biotechnology company, will present at the 8th
Annual BIO Investors Forum at the Grand Hotel in San Francisco, CA. 

The presentation will be webcast with a replay available beginning one-hour

About the Company

Based in North Brunswick, New Jersey, Advaxis is developing proprietary Listeria
monocytogenes (Lm) cancer vaccines based on technology developed by Dr. Yvonne
Paterson, professor of microbiology at the University of Pennsylvania and
chairperson of Advaxis` scientific advisory board. Advaxis is developing
attenuated live Lm vaccines that deliver engineered tumor antigens, which
stimulate multiple simultaneous immunological mechanisms to fight cancer. 

In a recent Advaxis Phase I clinical trial, a live Lm vaccine directed against
the tumor-associated antigen HPV-16-E7 was safely administered to fifteen (15)
women with recurrent, advanced, metastatic cancer of the cervix. Although this
first trial of an Lm vaccine in humans was not designed or powered to prove
efficacy, Advaxis believes an efficacy signal was observed that will be further
explored in two (2) planned Phase II trials in the US and India in cervical
cancer and its predecessor condition, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN).
Advaxis now has nine (9) distinct cancer fighting constructs in various stages
of development, both directly and with academic collaborators. For further
