Critical Outcome Technologies Invited to Present at 16th International p53 Workshop in Sweden

LONDON, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Jun 13, 2014) - Critical Outcome Technologies Inc. ("COTI" or the "Company") (TSX-VENTURE:COT), the bioinformatics and accelerated drug discovery company, announced today that its President and CEO, Dr. Wayne Danter, will be a featured presenter at the 16th International p53 Workshop at the Stockholm Waterfront Congress Centre in Sweden, which runs from June 15-19, 2014. This annual conference brings together world-renowned scientists to discuss novel, basic, transitional, and clinical research in the area of cancer biology with a focus on the p53 tumor suppressor gene.

Dr. Danter's presentation is scheduled for Monday, June 16 at 3:15 p.m. CEST, and will highlight the Company's lead cancer drug candidate, COTI-2, as a novel small molecule activator of mutant p53 protein for the treatment of susceptible cancers. While at the conference, Dr. Danter will also be meeting with Professor Sir David Lane, known for his joint discovery of the p53 tumor suppressor protein in 1979.

"I look forward to discussing our extensive preclinical findings regarding COTI-2 with Professor Lane and several other p53 thought leaders and interested parties," said Dr. Danter. "COTI-2 has a major mechanism of action that is dependent on p53 gene mutation status in human cancer cells. We are convinced that it is only a matter of time before the world recognizes the potentially transformational impact of COTI-2 in the treatment of many cancers where there is a p53 gene mutation present in afflicted patients."

Following Dr. Danter's scheduled presentation, the Company will upload his slides to SlideShare at www.slideshare.net/CriticalOutcome.
