<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>CALGARY, AB, &#151; December&nbsp;11, 2008 </B>- Oncolytics Biotech Inc. (&#147;Oncolytics&#148;) (TSX:ONC, NASDAQ:ONCY)
announced today that it has exceeded the primary statistical endpoint in its multi-centre Phase 2
clinical trial to evaluate the intravenous administration of REOLYSIN<SUP style="font-size: 85%; vertical-align: text-top">&#174;</SUP> in patients with
various sarcomas that have metastasized to the lung.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&#147;The proportion of patients on study with significant, durable, clinically meaningful responses is
highly encouraging,&#148; said Dr.&nbsp;Frank Giles, Director of the Institute of Drug Development, the
Cancer Therapy and Research Center at the University of Texas Health Science Center, San Antonio,
Texas. &#147;This very novel agent has delivered a positive answer to its first critical efficacy
question.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">To meet the statistical endpoint, at least three out of 52 patients had to experience stabilization
of disease or better for more than six months. Of 33 evaluable patients treated to date, five have
experienced stable disease for periods greater than six months, including one patient who has
maintained stable disease for more than 16&nbsp;months. An additional 10 patients have experienced
stable disease for periods ranging from three to six cycles (cycle = 28&nbsp;days). Twelve patients are
continuing on study, including the five patients who have been stable for more than six months.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&#147;We are very pleased to have met the statistical endpoint in our first U.S. Phase 2 study,
particularly in such a difficult-to-treat form of cancer,&#148; said Dr.&nbsp;Brad Thompson, President and
CEO of Oncolytics. &#147;The interim data indicate that REOLYSIN<SUP style="font-size: 85%; vertical-align: text-top">&#174;</SUP> is active in various
types of metastatic sarcoma, and that late-stage clinical trials are justified.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Sarcomas are malignant tumors growing from connective tissues, such as cartilage, fat, muscle, or
bone. According to the American Cancer Society, only 16.3% of patients with distant spread of
sarcoma live longer than five years. There is an unmet medical need for effective treatments for
patients with this type of disease.
