LLSR News:

July 15 - Lantis' OCT Dental Imaging System Featured in Report on Light-Based Diagnostic Modalities for Early Decay

Lantis Laser Inc. (OTC: LLSR | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) (www.lantislaser.com) issued a statement drawing attention to a recent significant report on a leading professional dental website, www.DrBicuspid.com, highlighting the status of light-based diagnostic modalities for the early detection of decay.

Early detection of decay is an important part in the practice of minimally invasive dentistry and the "medical model" of finding disease early and treating it early with topical or chemical means to avoid surgical intervention.

Lantis' OCT Dental System is addressed in Part III.

The report was published on the Internet in three parts, with the last, Part III, titled:

"Beyond x-rays: Part III - OCT brings early decay to light" www.drbicuspid.com/index.aspx?sec=sup&sub=img&pag=dis&ItemID=300735&wf=3 4

Links to Part I and Part II, which discuss currently available diagnostic products, are accessible at the end of Part III.

Lantis' OCT Dental Imaging System is based on novel, light-based bio-medical imaging technology, Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), that enables the dentist to do diagnostic imaging, chairside and in real-time. Images can be captured at a resolution of up to 10 times that of x-ray, enabling early detection of decay and detailed examination of microstructural defects. As the power source is light-based, unlike x-ray there is no harmful radiation.

ABPI News:

July 17 - Biovest Reports Results for Patients Treated with Anti-Cancer Vaccine: BiovaxID Demonstrates Clinically and Statistically Significant Improvement of Disease-Free Survival in Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma in Pivotal Phase 3 Clinical Trial

* Overall median disease-free-survival increased by more than one year (p-value = 0.047)

* 100% improvement in disease-free-survival at three years (p-value = 0.024)

* Potential to be first ever anti-cancer vaccine approved in U.S. and/or Europe

Biovest International, Inc. (OTCBB: BVTI), a majority-owned subsidiary of Accentia Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ABPI), announced clinically and statistically significant unblinded data from its randomized controlled pivotal Phase 3 Fast-Tracked clinical trial of BiovaxID (personalized anti-idiotype vaccine) for the treatment of indolent follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), an often fatal blood cancer. Originally developed and advanced into human clinical trials by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), BiovaxID is designed to recruit the immune system to recognize and destroy only cancerous B-cells. Based on this study's highly encouraging clinical evidence reporting on vaccinated patients to date, including efficacy and safety, Biovest intends to move forward with plans to seek accelerated and/or conditional regulatory approvals in the U.S. and European Union, respectively.

Summary Results

Biovest reported on two clinically relevant data points: 1) Overall median disease-free survival data as measured up to 80 months; and 2) Disease-free survival data on these same patients as measured at three years. All analyses performed were predetermined prior to unblinding and consistent with the Statistical Analysis Plan that was submitted and accepted by the FDA and the data review performed by the independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC), which is vested with the responsibility for monitoring the safety and efficacy of the BiovaxID trial.

First, for vaccinated patients followed up to 80 months, the overall results showed that BiovaxID improved median disease-free-survival by more than one year with the control arm showing a median time to relapse from first vaccination of 21.2 months, as compared to the BiovaxID arm which had a median time to relapse of 33.8 months. This statistically significant difference (p-value = 0.047) represents an increase of approximately 60% in the duration of complete remission since first vaccination. Disease-free survival (how long patients remain in cancer-free remission) is the primary endpoint of the study.

Second, for these same patients measured at 36 months from vaccination, BiovaxID improved median disease-free-survival by approximately 100% - a statistically significant improvement as compared to the control group (p-value = 0.024).

Biovest intends to seek accelerated and/or conditional approvals immediately in the U.S. and Europe, respectively, based on the current unblinded data and plans to supplement the clinical analysis with additional follow-up data through August 29, 2008, as per the recommendation of the DMC.

According to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is the 5th leading cause of new cancer cases in the U.S., with an estimated 63,190 new cases of NHL to be diagnosed in 2008, with approximately 18,660 deaths expected to be attributed to the disease. In Europe, NHL is the 6th most common form of cancer with approximately 50,000 new cases diagnosed each year in the European Union alone.

ABOUT BIOVAXID

BiovaxID is a personalized, patient-specific therapeutic vaccine designed to stimulate the patient's own immune system to recognize and destroy cancerous B-cells that may remain in the body or may arise after the patient has been treated with chemotherapy. Unlike many other approaches to treating non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, BiovaxID is designed to kill only cancerous B-cells, with the initial indication of follicular Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Additionally, we anticipate that BiovaxID could potentially be used to treat other types of B-cell cancers, such as Mantle Cell Lymphoma, Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and Multiple Myeloma.

ABOUT BIOVEST INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Biovest International, Inc. is a pioneer in the development of advanced individualized immunotherapies for life-threatening cancers of the blood system. Biovest is a majority-owned subsidiary of Accentia Biopharmaceuticals, Inc., (NASDAQ: ABPI | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) with its remaining shares publicly traded.

Biovest is currently completing a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial for BiovaxID , which is a patient-specific anti-cancer vaccine focusing on the treatment of follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. BiovaxID has been granted Fast Track status by the FDA and Orphan Drug status by the EMEA.

Initial deliveries of the equipment were completed during the second quarter, while the majority of the equipment is scheduled to be delivered during the third quarter.
