Release issued 27th November 2007

Philadelphia, PA – November 27, 2007 – Eurand N.V. (NASDAQ: EURX) announced today the completion of a gastrointestinal (GI) bioavailability study on Zentase™ (EUR-1008), the Company’s lead product candidate for the treatment of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI). The study was conducted in chronic pancreatitis patients in the U.S.  

Results from the study will be included in Eurand’s New Drug Application (NDA) for Zentase.  Eurand initiated its rolling NDA submission in June 2007 and has been granted fast-track designation by the FDA.

Gearóid Faherty, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The completion of this study will allow us to complete our NDA submission for Zentase before the end of the year as planned.”

Zentase is a porcine-derived pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy which is being developed to treat EPI, a condition associated with cystic fibrosis (CF), chronic pancreatitis and other conditions. The product is a highly stable formulation that includes eight key enzymes and a number of coenzymes and cofactors and is biologically similar to endogenous human pancreatic secretions necessary for proper human digestion. To date, Zentase has demonstrated positive results in two Phase III trials, one pivotal trial, and a supportive trial in pediatric patients. Eurand believes that the pediatric study was one of the first studies of its type and size conducted in such a young patient population in the United States.
