NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The financial statements for Alkermes Clinical Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, are unaudited and include all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the periods then ended. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, which includes financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

The results of the Partnership’s operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Partnership’s operations for any other interim period or for a full year.

2.     NET LOSS PER CLASS A AND B LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTEREST

Net loss per Class A and B limited partnership interest is calculated with the net loss attributable only to the limited partners of the Partnership (each, a “Limited Partner” and collectively, the “Limited Partners”) and excludes the loss attributable to Alkermes Development Corporation II (the “General Partner”). There were no losses attributable to the Limited Partners for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

3.     COMPLETION OF SCHEDULED FUNDING

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, the Partnership incurred no research and development expenses related to the RMP™ program. The Partnership was providing funding to Alkermes, Inc. (“Alkermes”) for research and development expenses for Cereport® from capital contributions received from Partners. Funding to Alkermes ended during the quarter ended June 30, 1996 when such capital contributions were substantially depleted. None of the Partners of the Partnership is obligated to make any further capital contributions. Since the funding was not sufficient for Alkermes to complete clinical trials and seek regulatory approval of Cereport, Alkermes had been using its own resources to develop Cereport. However, as discussed in Note 3 to the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, Alkermes has decided not to commit additional funds to the development of Cereport.

(6)

The General Partner is obligated to perform certain administrative services for the Partnership, such as preparing financial statements, tax returns and reports to Partners. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, Alkermes performed such services for the Partnership on behalf of the General Partner. There can be no assurance that Alkermes will continue to perform these services. The services performed by Alkermes and the General Partner constitute all of the activities undertaken by or on behalf of the Partnership.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the partnership be unable to continue as a going concern. The Partnership’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing or refinancing as may be required, and ultimately to attain successful operations.

After June 30, 2003, the Partnership is expected to continue to have no future liquidity or capital resources requirements other than those funded by Alkermes, if any.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

Alkermes Clinical Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”) was formed on February 7, 1992, and is managed by its general partner, Alkermes Development Corporation II (the “General Partner”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Alkermes, Inc. (“Alkermes” or the “Company”). The Partnership was organized to fund the further development and clinical testing of a family of molecules, designated by Alkermes as Receptor-Mediated Permeabilizers™ (“RMPs™”), for human pharmaceutical use in the United States and Canada.

IMPORTANT FACTORS REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Any statements set forth below or otherwise made in writing or orally by the Partnership or the General Partner with regard to its expectations as to financial results and other aspects of its business may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements can be identified by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “continues” or similar words. Although the General Partner believes that its expectations are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results of the Partnership’s development activities and its results of operations will not differ materially from its expectations. Factors which could cause actual results to differ from expectations depend on the direction taken by the Partnership at the direction of the General Partner. The General Partner must examine and act upon its options given Alkermes’ decision that it will not commit additional funds to the development of Cereport® and therefore cause a termination of the Research Program and the Purchase Option. Risk factors related to the options available include, among others:

     (i)  a new collaborator or a buyer of the Technology may be difficult to find, due to the mutual termination of the agreement between ALZA Corporation and Alkermes, the difficulties encountered in developing Cereport and the general economic conditions at this time;

     (ii)  even if a third party were interested in acting as a new collaborator, the economic and other terms may not be commercially acceptable;

     (iii)  even if a buyer of the Technology licensed to the Partnership were to be found, the purchase price paid may be significantly lower than an amount, after payment of expenses of the transaction and distribution to the Partners, required to return each Partner’s investment in the Partnership;

     (iv)  any license or sale of the Technology requires the approval of the General Partner and 66 2/3% of the Partners, which approval may be difficult to obtain;

(8)

     (v)  in the event that no collaborator or buyer is found for the Technology, or no agreement can be reached on commercial terms, a termination of the Partnership requires approval of 66 2/3% of the Partners, which approval may be difficult to obtain;

     (vi)  whether or not the Partnership terminates and in what manner it terminates may have tax implications for the Limited Partners. Limited Partners should consult their own tax advisors regarding any tax implications; and

     (vii)  the General Partner and the Partnership have no assets to pay any expenses of the General Partner or the Partnership and without financial support from Alkermes or a new collaborator there is substantial doubt about the Partnership’s ability to continue as a going concern.

If the General Partner were to find a new collaborator, there would be significant risks related to the further development of Cereport, including, among others:

          (i) clinical trials for Cereport may not proceed as planned, the trials may require more time to enroll patients than anticipated, and even if they are completed Cereport could prove to be ineffective or unsafe;

          (ii) the collaborator could reduce or discontinue funding of Cereport;

          (iii) the Partnership and the collaborator could not be permitted by regulatory authorities to undertake additional clinical trials for Cereport or clinical trials could be delayed or regulatory authorities could require additional clinical trials before approving Cereport;

          (iv) the collaborator could incur difficulties or set-backs in obtaining the substantial additional funding required to continue research and development programs and clinical trials;

          (v) even if Cereport appears promising at an early stage of development, it could fail to receive necessary regulatory approvals, be difficult to manufacture on a large scale, be uneconomical, fail to achieve market acceptance, be precluded from commercialization by proprietary rights of third parties or experience substantial competition in the marketplace; and

          (vi) technological change in the biotechnology or pharmaceutical industries and the approval of other drugs or therapies to treat brain tumors could render Cereport obsolete or noncompetitive.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue

The Partnership had no revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. The Partnership anticipates that it will have no revenue in the foreseeable future.

Expenses

The Partnership had no research and development expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. There were no research and development expenses because of the completion of the development funding to Alkermes pursuant to the product development agreement between Alkermes and the Partnership (the “Product Development Agreement”).

General and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 were $36,750 and $57,966 as compared to $2,947 and $7,740 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002. The increase for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to June 30, 2002 was mainly a result of increased professional service fees as the General Partner considers its options given Alkermes’ decision that it will not commit additional funds to the development of Cereport. Historically, Alkermes has performed these general and administrative services for the Partnership on the General Partner’s behalf at Alkermes’ expense. There can be no assurance that Alkermes will continue to perform these services.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 2003, the Partnership had no remaining assets or liabilities.

The Partnership’s primary source of funding and capital resources had been the annual capital contributions by the Limited Partners and the General Partner. The Limited Partners’ capital contributions were remitted to the Partnership in four annual installments, the fourth and final payment of which was due on April 15, 1995. No additional capital contributions from any of the Partners are required.

The Partnership was funding research and development expenses for Cereport from capital contributions received from Partners. Such development has been conducted for the Partnership by Alkermes pursuant to the Product Development Agreement, although Alkermes intends to cause a termination of the Research Program which would also terminate its obligations to continue such development. The research and development funding to Alkermes ended during the quarter ended June 30, 1996 when such capital contributions were substantially depleted. None of the Partners is obligated to make any further capital contributions. Because the funding was not sufficient for Alkermes to complete clinical trials and seek regulatory approval of Cereport, Alkermes had been using its own resources until its recent decision not to commit any additional funds. In late 1997, Alkermes entered into an agreement with ALZA Corporation related to the development and commercialization of Cereport that was mutually terminated in December 2002.

(10)

The Partnership used its remaining cash and cash equivalents during the quarter ended September 30, 1997 to pay for administrative services for the Partnership. The General Partner is obligated to perform certain administrative services for the Partnership, such as preparing financial statements, tax returns and reports to the Limited Partners. Historically, Alkermes has performed such services on behalf of the General Partner at its expense. There can be no assurance that Alkermes will continue to perform these services. The activities performed by Alkermes and the General Partner constitute all of the activities undertaken by or on behalf of the Partnership.

After June 30, 2003, the Partnership is expected to have no future liquidity or capital resources requirements other than those funded by Alkermes, if any.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk:

Not applicable.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

The chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the General Partner evaluated the General Partner’s controls and procedures as of the end of the quarterly period related to the Partnership’s reporting and disclosure obligations. These officers have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are sufficient to provide that (a) material information relating to the Partnership is made known to these officers by other employees of Alkermes, the parent entity of the General Partner, and its consolidated subsidiaries, particularly material information related to the period for which this periodic report is being prepared; and (b) this information is recorded, processed, summarized, evaluated and reported, as applicable, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

There have been no significant changes in the General Partner’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these internal controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation.
