Confidential Information will exclude that which is (a) in the public domain at
the time of disclosure hereunder or which subsequently has come within the

initial receipt (and such prior possession can be properly demonstrated by
written records), or (d) independently developed by the Receiving Party without
use of or reliance on the Confidential Information.

     7.6  Publication.  Neither PRI nor Dendreon shall publish any human

allow filing of patent applications.

     For Clinical Trials that are performed by a Third Party, Dendreon shall
make a reasonable effort to obtain agreement with the Third Party to not publish
the result of the Clinical Trial without the prior written consent of Dendreon.
In the event that Dendreon does not obtain such agreement with a Third Party,
the Third Party may be permitted to publish the results of the Clinical Trial
actually performed by the Third Party, provided that Dendreon will submit to PRI
drafts of all proposed publications relating to the Clinical Trials, and any
know-how or patent rights relating to such Clinical Trials, at the earliest
possible date, but in any event not less than forty-five  (45) days prior to the
submission of said proposed publications for publication or presentation.  PRI
shall have the right to advise Dendreon as to the patentability of any invention
disclosed therein, and to request the filing of a patent application.  Dendreon
shall prepare and file any such patent application prior to the submission of
the proposed publication for publication or presentation.  At the end of such
forty-five  (45) day period, the Third Party shall have the right, at its sole
discretion, to submit such proposed publications for publication or
presentation, but [ * ].

Dendreon Announces Collaboration with The R.W. Johnson Pharmaceutical Research
Institute in Development of Immunotherapy for Cancer

-  leader in cancer vaccines to advance research and development activities

Seattle, WA (October     2000) - Dendreon Corporation (Nasdaq: DNDN) today
announced the signing of a strategic collaboration agreement for the advancement
of cancer immunotherapies with The R.W. Johnson Pharmaceutical Research
Institute (PRI), a member of the Johnson & Johnson family of companies (NYSE:
JNJ).

The Collaboration will provide the opportunity for Dendreon and PRI to pool
products and technologies to develop optimal immunotherapies, including
dendritic cell-based vaccine therapy for the treatment of a variety of cancers,
including breast, ovarian and colorectal cancers. The collaboration will also
involve a pooling of products and technologies which may be developed by the
companies.

"PRI is a strong partner for Dendreon Corporation," said David Urdal, Ph.D.,
Chief Scientific Officer of Dendreon. "PRI's innovation in biotechnology,
coupled with Dendreon's leadership in the cancer immunotherapy arena, provides a
significant validation for this important area of clinical development and a
strong groundwork for our future research and development activities."

Under the terms of the agreement, PRI will provide financial support for
research and development activities to be carried out by Dendreon. Dendreon will
also be responsible for clinical testing.

Immunotherapy treatments aim to harness the natural power of the immune system
to fight against diseases such as cancer. Avoiding the harsh side effects
associated with other forms of treatment, immunotherapies may offer new hope to
patients.

Dendreon Corporation (www.dendreon.com) is dedicated to the discovery and
development of novel products for the treatment of cancer through its innovative
manipulation of the immune system. Dendreon is focused on the development of
therapeutic cancer vaccines through the use of antigen discovery, antigen
engineering and dendritic cell technologies. Dendreon's vaccine for the
treatment of prostate cancer, Provenge(TM), is in Phase III clinical trials and
its vaccine for the treatment of multiple myeloma, Mylovenge(TM), is in Phase II
clinical trials.

Except for historical information contained herein, this news release contains
forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that may
cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the
forward-looking statements, particularly those inherent in the process of
discovering, developing and commercializing drugs that are safe and effective
for use as human therapeutics. Factors that may cause such a difference include
