Crystal Research Associates, LLC Issues Executive Informational Overview(R) (EIO(R)) on CEL-SCI Corp.

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - January 25, 2010) - Crystal Research Associates, LLC announced today that it has issued an Executive Informational Overview® (EIO®) on CEL-SCI Corp. (NYSE Amex: CVM). The full 64-page report can be found at www.crystalra.com.

CEL-SCI Corp. ("CEL-SCI" or "the Company") develops cancer and infectious disease products that empower immune system defenses. CEL-SCI is organized into three business units: (1) Multikine®, a non-toxic immunotherapy with Orphan Drug status that is poised to enter a global, open-label Phase III trial for advanced primary head and neck cancer; (2) Treatment Vaccines, which includes an H1N1 (pandemic influenza) treatment that entered a clinical study in November 2009 as well as a preclinical treatment vaccine for rheumatoid arthritis (RA); and (3) Contract Manufacturing Services using the Company's new manufacturing facility to generate near-term revenue.

CEL-SCI's lead candidate, Multikine®, is a patented mix of biologically active natural cytokines and is the first of a new class of cancer immunotherapy drugs called immune simulators, which are designed to closely mimic the body's natural immune system. Unlike other immunotherapies, Multikine® is multi-targeted -- it activates multiple cellular components of the immune system to fight cancer -- and is administered to patients before any other treatment, when the immune system is strongest (namely before the patient receives surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy). It has been shown to kill roughly 50% of tumor cells before the standard of care commences and renders residual cancer cells that survive treatment more susceptible to radiation and chemotherapy. In over 200 patients treated to date, Multikine® has been reported to be safe and well tolerated, improving patients' overall survival by 33% at a median of 3.5 years following surgery versus that attained using the standard of care without Multikine® (surgery plus radiation or surgery plus combined chemoradiotherapy).

CEL-SCI plans to begin the Phase III trial of Multikine® at multiple centers in North America, the European Union (EU), South America, and Asia in the summer of 2010. The Company believes that a positive Phase III outcome could enable Multikine® to be routinely included as part of the standard of care for all advanced primary head and neck cancer patients.
