Item 1. Changes in Control of Registrant.

On December 5, 2003, the Registrant received from Bruce Meyers, The M and B Weiss Family Limited Partnership of 1996, Melvyn I. Weiss and Michael Stone (the “Meyers Group”) copies of written consents purporting to represent a majority of the outstanding shares of the Registrant’s voting stock. On the same date, the Registrant engaged IVS Associates, Inc. (“IVS”), independent proxy inspectors, to provide an independent tabulation of the consents and revocations and to report on the results. On December 9, 2003, IVS reported that the consents delivered by the Meyers Group were sufficient to elect a new slate of directors. As a result, five nominees of the Meyers Group (the “Nominees”) were elected as directors of the Registrant, replacing the former board of directors, thereby effecting a change in control of the Registrant (the “Change in Control”).

At the time of the Change in Control, the Meyers Group, together with the Nominees, was the beneficial owner of 2,963,717 shares of the common and preferred stock of the Registrant (according to the Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Meyers Group on September 30, 2003). This amount represents approximately 18% of the total voting stock of the Registrant currently outstanding.

The newly elected directors of the Registrant are Robert A. Baron, Robert Benou, John J. Huntz, Jr., John A. Paganelli and David Lee Spencer, M.D. The former board of directors was comprised of Joseph M. Davie, M.D., Ph.D., Robert Easton, Walter M. Lovenberg, Ph.D., Gordon Martin and Ronald L. Goode, Ph.D.

Item 5. Other Events and Regulations FD Disclosure.

On December 9, 2003, the Registrant issued a press release, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7. Financial Statements, Pro Forma Financial Information and Exhibits.
