BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Cell Genesys, Inc. has announced the successful completion of their previously announced merger of Cell Genesys with and into BioSante, with BioSante as the surviving company, under which BioSante now has acquired all of the outstanding shares of Cell Genesys common stock.
In a release, the group noted that BioSante intends to focus primarily on LibiGel, BioSante's testosterone gel in Phase III clinical development under a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) agreed Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) for the treatment of female sexual dysfunction (FSD). BioSante also intends to seek future development opportunities for GVAX Immunotherapies including combinations with BioVant, BioSante's vaccine adjuvant, and possible external collaborations, and also will seek to outlicense other former Cell Genesys technologies. In addition, BioSante now owns a 16 percent equity ownership position in Ceregene, Inc., a former subsidiary of Cell Genesys which is developing gene therapies for neurodegenerative disorders.
"Closing the merger today is a very exciting development for BioSante. We now have accomplished our objective of having enough cash on hand to complete the LibiGel clinical development program to and through submission of a new drug application (NDA) in the first half of 2011," said Stephen M. Simes, president and CEO of BioSante. "The merger follows our successful registered direct financing closed on August 13, and our recent announcement of continued safety of LibiGel in our Phase III clinical studies. We now will accelerate completion of the LibiGel clinical development program to be in a position to submit the NDA in a timely fashion. We also will work to maximize the value of our newly acquired GVAX immunotherapies."
"The successful closing of our merger with BioSante provides an impressive array of opportunities to create value from the assets of the combined company," said Stephen A. Sherwin, M.D., the former chairman and CEO of Cell Genesys, and as a result of the merger, a new director of BioSante. "I am very pleased to have the opportunity to serve as a director of BioSante and look forward to working with the BioSante team."
BioSante is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on developing products for female sexual health, menopause, contraception and male hypogonadism.
