Resverlogix comments on steady climb of share price

Jan 31, 2013

TSX Exchange Symbol: RVX

CALGARY, Jan. 31, 2013 /CNW/ - At the request of Market Surveillance, Resverlogix management has been requested to comment on the recent steady climb in the stock price. Management is unaware of any single factor for the increase. However we believe that the combination of a recent FDA approval of a competitive cholesterol management agent, mipomersen, and the anticipated pending completion of our Phase 2b ASSURE clinical trial may be primarily responsible for the increased activity.
