FDA requests further data for approval of Epigenomics' blood-based
colorectal cancer screening test

Berlin, Germany, November 4, 2015 - Epigenomics AG, Berlin, Germany,
(Frankfurt Prime Standard: ECX, ISIN: DE000A11QW50), announces that it has
received a response letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
in relation to its premarket approval (PMA) application for the Company's
blood-based colorectal cancer (CRC) screening test Epi proColon(R).

In its letter, the FDA provided guidance and recommendations on how to
amend the PMA to make it approvable. The agency requested additional data
demonstrating that the blood-based Epi proColon(R) test will increase
compliance to CRC screening in the intended use population, i.e. in those
patients with a history of noncompliance to recommended CRC screening
programs.

The management of Epigenomics is taking immediate steps to address the
FDA's requests. This includes a meeting with the FDA in the near-term in
order to discuss how to best address the outstanding questions. It is
expected that an additional study to demonstrate increased compliance and
adherence of patients to blood-based CRC testing will be needed. Details of
the study will be determined in dialogue with the FDA. As in the past,
Epigenomics is committed to provide information about the regulatory way
forward to its shareholders and to the public in a timely and comprehensive
manner.

Together with its strategic commercialization partner Polymedco,
Epigenomics will continue to diligently prepare for commercializing Epi
proColon(R) in the United States.

In the previous ADMIT (Adherence to Minimally Invasive Testing) study,
Epigenomics aimed to demonstrate that Epi proColon(R) will increase CRC
participation in patients being offered this convenient blood-based test as
compared to those being offered a fecal immunochemical test (FIT). While
the adherence to Epi proColon(R) was nearly 100%, the participation rate to
the FIT-test of 88% by far exceeded the levels seen in many studies. The
FDA's request for additional data suggests that the studied population in
the ADMIT trial was not fully suitable for Epi proColon(R).
