PROGENICS PHARMACEUTICALS REPORTS

THIRD QUARTER 2006 RESULTS

Tarrytown, NY, November 9, 2006 - Progenics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: PGNX) today announced its results of operations for the third quarter, and the first nine months, ended September 30, 2006.

Revenues for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006 totaled $17.8 million compared to $2.8 million for the same quarter in 2005. For the first nine months of 2006, Progenics reported revenues of $48.0 million compared to $7.4 million for the comparable period in 2005. Revenues primarily reflect reimbursement received by the Company for its research and development activities under its collaboration with Wyeth (NYSE: WYE) relating to methylnaltrexone, recognition of revenue relating to Wyeth’s upfront payment to Progenics in the methylnaltrexone collaboration, and government grants and contracts.

The Company’s expenses for the third quarter of 2006 were $22.7 million compared to $14.1 million for the third quarter of 2005. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, expenses totaled $73.7 million compared to $45.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The increase in expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 is principally due to increased research and development activity related to Progenics’ collaboration with Wyeth and an increase in headcount. In addition, the increase in expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was due to the one-time $13.2 million expense related to the acquisition of PSMA Development Company LLC in the second quarter of 2006.

The net loss for the third quarter of 2006 was $2.9 millioncompared to a net loss of $10.7 million for the same period in 2005. The net loss per share for the third quarter of 2006 was $(0.11) basic and diluted, compared to a net loss per share of $(0.49), basic and diluted, for the same period of 2005. The net loss for the first nine months of 2006 was $19.9 million, compared to a net loss of $36.7 million for the same period in 2005. The net loss per share for the first nine months of 2006 was $(0.78), basic and diluted, compared to a net loss per share of $(1.87), basic and diluted, for the same period of 2005. The Company ended the third quarter of 2006 with cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $148.5 million.

In connection with its collaboration with Wyeth, Progenics recognized revenues of $14.5 million for the third quarter of 2006; $5.1 million of which related to the $60 million upfront payment received by Progenics upon commencement of the collaboration and $9.4 million for reimbursement of Progenics’ development expenses for the third quarter of 2006. For the first nine months of 2006, Progenics recognized $40.1 million of revenue from the Wyeth collaboration: $14.5 million from the upfront payment and $25.6 million as reimbursement of its development expenses.

During the third quarter of 2006, Progenics Pharmaceuticals and Wyeth announced the initiation of a phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate once-daily dosing of oral methylnaltrexone. This trial is designed to identify the dose(s) of methylnaltrexone to be taken forward into the phase 3 clinical studies that will evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of oral methylnaltrexone for opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in patients treated with opioids for chronic pain. The companies also announced the initiation of the first of two global, pivotal, phase 3 clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous methylnaltrexone for the treatment of post-operative ileus (POI), a debilitating impairment of the gastrointestinal tract that occurs after surgery. There are no medicines currently approved to treat POI.
