Fibrocell Science, Inc. Reports Full Year 2010 Financial Results and Provides Business Update

EXTON, Pa.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Fibrocell Science, Inc. (OTCBB:FCSC), a biotechnology company focused on the development of autologous cell therapies for aesthetic, medical and scientific applications, announced today a financial and business update for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

"If approved, it will be the first and only personalized cell-based aesthetic treatment of moderate to severe nasolabial folds and wrinkles. The Prescription Drug User Fee Act date is June 22, 2011, and we are working closely with the FDA during the final review stage."

For the full fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, revenue was $936,369, compared to $868,561 for the same period a year ago. Net loss for the full fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 was $12,931,531, compared to net loss of $12,794,975 (excluding the reorganization gain of $73,466,507) for the same period last year.

a2010 was a very productive year for Fibrocell, culminating in the recent acceptance for review by the FDA of our complete response submission for azficel-T, proposed brand name laViv�,a commented David Pernock, Fibrocell Science Chairman and CEO. aIf approved, it will be the first and only personalized cell-based aesthetic treatment of moderate to severe nasolabial folds and wrinkles. The Prescription Drug User Fee Act date is June 22, 2011, and we are working closely with the FDA during the final review stage.

aBased on our accomplishments year to date, we believe that 2011 is off to a very strong start. In a continuous effort to advance our cell therapy, we entered into a scientific collaboration with University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to research the conversion of dermal fibroblasts into pure functional human cell types that may have greater regenerative capacity. This research has the potential to result in future diagnostic or treatments based on each persona�s own cells for illnesses such as Parkinsona�s disease, diabetes and heart disease. To enable the process, we have accessed key patents from Stanford University.

aAdditionally, as demonstrated by results of a five-patient pilot study which were published in The Laryngoscope journal, we have made good progress in evaluating the safety and effectiveness of autologous fibroblasts to treat vocal fold scarring. The study demonstrated that our autologous fibroblasts therapy helps improve voice by re-establishing normal mucosal pliability of the vocal folds.

aLooking towards the remainder of 2011, we will continue to forge our strategic scientific relationships, to capitalize on our intellectual property and to leverage our recently raised capital in order to proceed with our current studies as well as to apply our autologous fibroblast technology in additional aesthetic areas, such as the treatment of restrictive burn scars, acne scars, and periodontal disease,a concluded Mr. Pernock.

About Fibrocell Science Technology

Fibroblasts are cells that contribute to the formation of connective tissue fibers, and regenerative fibroblast cells may have potential in use for broad aesthetic, medical and scientific applications.

Fibrocell Sciencea�s lead therapy, azficel-T, is an investigational autologous cell therapy. In the Fibrocell Science patented process, a patient's own natural fibroblasts are extracted, multiplied and re-injected as personalized therapy to regenerate skin. Azficel-T is currently under review by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of moderate to severe nasolabial fold wrinkles. Also, the Company recently submitted a clinical study report to the FDA for a Phase II/III trial of azficel-T in acne scarring.
