 ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

Access Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (together with our subsidiaries, “We”, “Access” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation. We are an emerging biopharmaceutical company focused on developing a range of pharmaceutical products primarily based upon our nanopolymer chemistry technologies and other drug delivery technologies. We currently have one approved product, two products at Phase 2 of clinical development and several products in pre-clinical development. Low priority clinical and pre-clinical programs will be dependent on our ability to enter into collaboration arrangements. Certain of our development programs are dependent upon our ability to secure approved funding for such projects.

2

·   MuGard™ is our approved product for the management of oral mucositis, a frequent side-effect of cancer therapy for which there is no established treatment. The market for mucositis treatment is estimated to be in excess of $1 billion world-wide. MuGard, a proprietary nanopolymer formulation, has received marketing allowance in the U.S. from the FDA. We launched MuGard in the United States in the fourth quarter of 2010. We are continuing training of our third-party MuGard representatives on the product, on the oral mucositis condition and on our sales strategy. MuGard prescriptions are growing and we have placed emphasis on our sampling and marketing efforts to build demand, grow oncologist awareness and increase payer uptake. MuGard has also been launched in Germany, Italy, UK, Greece and the Nordic countries by our European commercial partner, SpePharm. Our China partners have received the acceptance letter from the State Food and Drug Administration of China. We anticipate marketing approval in China in the fourth quarter of 2011.

·   Our lead development candidate for the treatment of cancer is ProLindac™, a nanopolymer DACH-platinum prodrug. We initiated a study of ProLindac combined with Paclitaxel in second line treatment of platinum pretreated advanced ovarian cancer patients in the fourth quarter of 2010. This multi-center study of up to 25 evaluable patients is being conducted in France. We are also currently planning a number of combination trials, looking at combining ProLindac with other cancer agents in solid tumor indications including colorectal and ovarian cancer. The DACH-platinum incorporated in ProLindac is the same active moiety as that in oxaliplatin (Eloxatin; Sanofi-Aventis), which has sales in excess of $2.0 billion.

·   Thiarabine, or 4-thio Ara-C, is a next generation nucleoside analog licensed from Southern Research Institute. Previously named SR9025 and OSI-7836, the compound has been in two Phase 1/2 solid tumor human clinical trials and was shown to have anti-tumor activity. We are working with leukemia and lymphoma specialists at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston and have initiated additional Phase 2 clinical trials in adult AML, ALL and other indications.

·   CobOral® is our proprietary preclinical nanopolymer oral drug delivery technology based on the natural vitamin B12 oral uptake mechanism. We are currently developing a product for the oral delivery of insulin, and have conducted sponsored development of a product for oral delivery of human growth hormone. We have signed or are in discussion with several companies regarding the sponsored development of CobOral drug delivery formulations of proprietary and non-proprietary actives.

·   CobaCyte®-mediated cancer targeted delivery is a preclinical technology which makes use of the fact that cell surface receptors for vitamins such as B12 are often overexpressed by cancer cells. This technology uses nanopolymer constructs to deliver more anti-cancer drug to tumors while protecting normal tissues.

RECENT EVENTS

On November 10, 2011, we closed the sale of approximately 3.71 million shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 3.71 million shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $5.39 million. We sold the shares and warrants for $1.45 per unit (each consisting of one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase 0.5 of a share of common stock at $1.67 per whole share exercisable for two and one half years and a warrant to purchase 0.5 of a share of common stock at $2.00 per whole share exercisable for five years).

In various news releases over the past quarter we announced that MuGard has received reimbursement from many networks of leading insurance and pharmacy benefit managers throughout the U.S., including Aetna, Amerigroup, several state Anthem plans, Assurant Health, several Blue Cross Blue Shield state plans, Cigna, Express-Scripts, Harvard Pilgrim, Humana, Keystone, Tricare, United Healthcare, and Wellspan Plus. Reimbursement coverage for MuGard is now available with standard pharmacy benefit copayment. Placement in pharmacy benefit plans will assist in driving increased reimbursement coverage of MuGard.

On September 7, 2011, we announced that we contracted with CuraScript, a healthcare subsidiary of Express Scripts, to expand our specialty pharmacy and third party logistics networks for MuGard. We also contracted with CuraScript Specialty Distribution to warehouse and serve as our specialty distributor and wholesaler for specialty pharmacy providers.

On August 5, 2011, we announced that we hired Edelman, the leading full service global public relations firm, to support our media outreach initiatives. Edelman will assist us in implementing a media communications outreach program primarily aimed at introducing MuGard and building awareness of its ability to treat oral mucositis.

On July 28, 2011, we announced that we launched our patient reimbursement and support center for our lead product for oral mucositis, MuGard. Referred to as a HUB, the MuGard Patient Reimbursement and Support Center (MuGard PRSC) operated by eMax Health provides a centralized patient referral center that improves patient access to MuGard by enhancing product distribution and facilitating payment for MuGard by insurance carriers.

On July 12, 2011, we announced that we signed an agreement to restructure the outstanding $5.5 million senior convertible promissory note scheduled to mature this year, that agreement was also amended on August 15, 2011. The amendments provide for an extension of 50% of the note ($2.75 million) until September 13, 2012, and require the payment of $2.75 million to be paid promptly on the earlier of December 1, 2011 or upon the closing of an equity financing by the Company. If the initial $2.75 million is not paid prior to December 1, 2011, then the full $5.5 million plus accrued interest will become due and payable on December 13, 2011. The amendments provided the note holder with a security interest in certain of our assets and required an interest payment on August 15, 2011.

The restructured agreement also provides for the acceleration of payments to the note holder in the event of a corporate licensing or partnering transaction.

On June 27, 2011, we announced that RHEI Pharmaceuticals, our MuGard partner in China, has received the acceptance letter from the State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) of China acknowledging all necessary documentation for MuGard has been submitted and accepted. Together with its marketing partner Jian An, RHEI Pharmaceuticals completed the process required to satisfy all requirements to receive marketing approval in China and its other South East Asian territories. RHEI has advised Access of the next steps the SFDA will take to grant approval in its territories and anticipates receiving marketing approval in the second half of this year.

On May 24, 2011, we announced that we signed an agreement with eMAX Health Systems to expand the distribution network and to further support ongoing third party payer outreach programs for MuGard and advocate for reimbursement among commercial insurance carriers in the United States.

On May 10, 2011, we announced that have made significant progress with our CobaCyte tumor-targeting technology. Using a new proprietary CobaCyte paclitaxel nanoparticle formulation, named Cobraxane™, our scientists have observed significant tumor growth inhibition in preclinical tumor models.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We have funded our operations primarily through private sales of common stock, preferred stock, convertible notes and through licensing agreements. Our principal source of liquidity is cash and cash equivalents. Royalty revenues and product sales provided limited funding for operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. As of November 11, 2011, our cash and cash equivalents were $5,813,000 and our net cash burn rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, was approximately $697,000 per month. As of September 30, 2011, our working capital deficit was $12,581,000. Our working capital deficit at September 30, 2011 represented an increase of $6,445,000 as compared to our working capital deficit as of December 31, 2010 of $6,136,000. The increase in the working capital deficit at September 30, 2011 reflects nine months of net operating costs. As of September 30, 2011, we had one convertible note outstanding in the principal amount of $5.5 million. One half of the note ($2.75 million) is due November 17, 2011, five days after the closing of our equity financing and the remaining $2.75 million under the note is due on September 13, 2012.

5

As of November 14, 2011, we did not have enough capital to achieve our long-term goals. If we raise additional funds by selling equity securities, the relative equity ownership of our existing investors will be diluted and the new investors could obtain terms more favorable than previous investors. A failure to obtain necessary additional capital in the future could jeopardize our operations and our ability to continue as a going concern.

We have incurred negative cash flows from operations since inception, and have expended, and expect to continue to expend in the future, substantial funds to complete our planned product development efforts. Since inception, our expenses have significantly exceeded revenues, resulting in an accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2011 of $255,275,000. We expect that our capital resources, revenues from MuGard sales and expected receipts due under our license agreements will be adequate to fund our current level of operations into the third quarter of 2012. However, our ability to fund operations over this time could change significantly depending upon changes to future operational funding obligations or capital expenditures. As a result, we are required to seek additional financing sources within the next twelve months. We cannot assure you that we will ever be able to generate significant product revenue or achieve or sustain profitability.

Since our inception, we have devoted our resources primarily to fund our research and development programs. We have been unprofitable since inception and to date have received limited revenues from the sale of products. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate sufficient product revenues to attain profitability on a sustained basis or at all. We expect to incur losses for the next several years as we continue to invest in product research and development, preclinical studies, clinical trials and regulatory compliance.

THIRD QUARTER 2011 COMPARED TO THIRD QUARTER 2010

Our licensing revenue for the third quarter of 2011 was $936,000 as compared to $107,000 for 2010. We recognize licensing revenue over the period of the performance obligation under our licensing agreements. In the third quarter 2011, we regained licenses from our former Korean partner for ProLindac and MuGard and recognized all of the previously received license fees ($849,000) that were recorded in deferred revenue.

We recorded royalty revenue for MuGard in Europe of $23,000 for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $20,000 for 2010, an increase of $3,000.

Product sales of MuGard in the United States totaled $82,000 for the third quarter of 2011 with no revenues for the same period of 2010. Our first sales were recorded in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Total research and development spending for the third quarter of 2011 was $1,063,000, as compared to $1,199,000 for 2010, a decrease of $136,000. The decrease in expenses was primarily due to:

·   lower external development expenses for ProLindac ($176,000). The product was made in 2010 and is used in the clinical trials ongoing this quarter;

·   lower stock compensation expense due to lower expense of option grants for research and development employees ($86,000);

6

·   lower internal lab costs ($59,000)

·   offset by increased clinical development with trials for ProLindac, MuGard and Thiarabine ($167,000); and

·   increased net other research and development costs ($18,000).

Product costs for MuGard in the United States were $454,000 for the third quarter of 2011 with no product costs for the same period in 2010. MuGard was launched in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Total general and administrative expenses were $1,252,000 for the third quarter of 2011, an increase of $87,000 compared to the same period in 2010 of $1,165,000. The increase in expenses was due primarily to the following:

·   increased stock compensation expense due to higher expense of option grants for general and administrative employees and directors ($146,000);

·   increased salary and related costs ($143,000);

·   increased rent expenses ($39,000) due to additional office space;

·   increased net other general and administrative expenses ($21,000);

·   offset by decreased patent and license fees ($207,000) due to a credit in 2010 license expenses; and

·   decreased general business consulting expenses due to the higher use of outside consultants in 2010 ($55,000) versus the same period in 2011.

Depreciation and amortization was $56,000 for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $59,000 for 2010.

Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2011 were $2,825,000 as compared to total operating expenses of $2,423,000 for 2010, an increase of $402,000 for the reasons listed above.

Interest and miscellaneous income was $1,283,000 for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $38,000 for 2010, an increase of $1,245,000. Miscellaneous income was $1,282,000 higher in 2011 due to negotiated payables and write-off of other accounts payable. Interest income is comparable to the same period in 2010.

Interest and other expense was $237,000 for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $152,000 in 2010, an increase of $85,000. The increase in interest and other expense was due to additional interest that was accrued on the long-term notes due to an increase in the interest rate of the note.

We recorded a gain related to warrants classified as derivative liabilities of $1,138,000 for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to a gain of $146,000 for the same period of 2010. A derivative for warrants was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2009 when the fair value of the warrants that were issued with our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were reclassified from equity per the requirements of accounting guidance as a result of the repricing feature.

We recorded a loss for the derivative liability related to preferred stock of $50,000 for the third quarter of 2011 and $10,455,000 for 2010. The derivative was recorded for the first time in the third quarter of 2010 per the requirements of accounting guidance due to the possibility of repricing our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock if we sold our common stock at a price below the original conversion price.

7

Preferred stock dividends of $447,000 were accrued for the third quarter of 2011 and $452,000 for 2010, a decrease of $5,000. The decrease is due to some preferred shareholders converting their ownership to common stock. Dividends are due semi-annually in either cash or common stock.

Net loss allocable to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2011 was $97,000, or a $0.00 basic and diluted loss per common share, compared with net loss of $13,171,000, or a $0.83 basic and diluted loss per common share for the same period in 2010, a decreased loss of $13,074,000.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010

Our licensing revenue for the first nine months of 2011 was $1,110,000 as compared to $281,000 for 2010. We recognize licensing revenue over the period of the performance obligation under our licensing agreements. In the third quarter 2011, we regained licenses from our former Korean partner for ProLindac and MuGard and recognized all of the previously received license fees ($849,000) that were recorded in deferred revenue.

Sponsored research and development revenues were $30,000 for the first nine months of 2011 with no revenues for the same period of 2010. The revenues in 2011 are for research collaborations on our CobOral and CobaCyte projects.

Product sales of MuGard in the United States totaled $138,000 for the first nine months of 2011 with no revenues for the same period of 2010. Our first sales were recorded in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Total research and development spending for the first nine months of 2011 was $3,243,000, as compared to $2,718,000 for 2010, an increase of $525,000. The increase in expenses was primarily due to:

·   increased clinical development with trials for ProLindac, MuGard and Thiarabine ($700,000);

·   increased salary and related costs due to new employees ($238,000);

·   other net increases in research spending ($87,000).

·   decreased stock compensation expense for lower expense of option grants for research and development employees ($239,000);

·   decreased general business consulting expenses due to the higher use of outside consultants in 2010 ($305,000) versus the same period  in 2011;

·   decreased patent and license fees ($96,000);

·   decreased net other general and administrative expenses ($3,000);

Interest and other expense was $760,000 for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $444,000 in 2010, an increase of $316,000. The increase in interest and other expense was due to additional interest that was accrued on the long-term notes due to an increase in the interest rate of the note.

We recorded a gain related to warrants classified as derivative liabilities of $3,312,000 for the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $6,384,000 for the same period of 2010. A derivative for warrants was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2009 when the fair value of the warrants that were issued with our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were reclassified from equity per the requirements of accounting guidance as a result of the repricing feature.

We recorded a loss for the derivative liability related to preferred stock of $470,000 for the first nine months of 2011 and $10,455,000 for 2010. The derivative was recorded for the first time in the third quarter of 2010 per the requirements of accounting guidance due to the possibility of repricing our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock if we sold our common stock at a price below the original conversion price.

Preferred stock dividends of $1,327,000 were accrued for the first nine months of 2011 and $1,340,000 for 2010, a decrease of $13,000. The decrease is due to some preferred shareholders converting their ownership to common stock. Dividends are due semi-annually in either cash or common stock.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

ITEM 4.                  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”)) as of September 30, 2011. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of September 30, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. This conclusion was based on the existence of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting previously disclosed and discussed below.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on its evaluation, our management concluded in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 that there is a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. As of the date of this report on Form 10-Q, we have not remediated such material weakness and as a result, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that a material weakness continues to exist as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The material weakness identified did not result in the restatement of any previously reported financial statements or any related financial disclosure, nor does management believe that it had any effect on the accuracy of the Company’s financial statements for the current reporting period. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The material weakness relates to the monitoring and review of work performed by our Chief Financial Officer in the preparation of financial statements, footnotes and financial data provided to the Company’s registered public accounting firm in connection with the annual audit. All of our financial reporting is carried out by our Chief Financial Officer. This lack of accounting staff results in a lack of segregation of duties and accounting technical expertise necessary for an effective system of internal control.

10

In order to mitigate this material weakness to the fullest extent possible, all financial statements are reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer as well as the Chairman of the Audit Committee for reasonableness. All unexpected results are investigated. At any time, if it appears that any control can be implemented to continue to mitigate such weaknesses, it is immediately implemented. As soon as our finances allow, we plan to hire sufficient accounting staff and implement appropriate procedures for monitoring and review of work performed by our Chief Financial Officer.

Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

 ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that we believe could have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

 ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

In September 2011, we issued 5,000 shares of our common stock to a consultant as payment for their consulting expenses. The issuance of shares of our common stock in settlement of these accounts was made pursuant to Section 4(2) and Rule 506 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

In August 2011, we issued 5,000 shares of our common stock to a consultant as payment for his consulting expenses. The issuance of shares of our common stock in settlement of these accounts was made pursuant to Section 4(2) and Rule 506 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended

In July 2011, we issued 105,000 shares of our common stock to several consultants as payment for their consulting expenses. The issuance of shares of our common stock in settlement of these accounts was made pursuant to Section 4(2) and Rule 506 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.

Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designations, Rights and Preferences of our Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, we are required to pay dividends in cash or shares of our common stock, semi-annually, at the rate of 6% per annum. If funds are not currently available to pay cash dividends or if a cash payment of dividends would be impermissible under Delaware law, we may in certain circumstances pay such dividends in shares of the Company’s common stock. In order to pay such dividends in shares of the Company’s common stock, there must either be an effective registration statement covering the resale of the dividend shares, the resale must be permissible subject to an exemption from registration, or the respective holders of Series A Preferred Stock must agree to accept restricted common stock as payment of such dividends. In the event none of these three circumstances are met, and the dividends have not been paid in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock, the dividends shall continue to accrue until they are paid in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company has accrued as of September 30, 2011, dividends payable in the aggregate amount of $5,966,000.

11

Pursuant to the terms of an Investor Rights Agreement with the purchasers of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company is required to maintain an effective registration statement with respect to certain shares issuable upon conversion of our outstanding preferred stock. As of September 30, 2011, the Securities and Exchange Commission had not yet declared a registration statement effective with respect to all of the shares covered by the Investor Rights Agreement, and as a result, we have accrued as of September 30, 2011, $857,000 in liquidated damages. A registration statement filed by us relating to a portion of such securities was declared effective on November 13, 2008.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011 and 2010

(unaudited)

 (1)  Interim Financial Statements

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2011, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders deficit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, were prepared by management without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise disclosed, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and changes in financial position for such periods, have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results which may be expected for a full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 contains financial information taken from the audited Access financial statements as of that date.

The report of our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, contained a fourth explanatory paragraph to reflect its significant doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our history of losses and our liquidity position, as discussed herein and in this Form 10-Q. On November 10, 2011, we closed the sale of approximately 3.71 million shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 3.71 million shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $5.39 million. We expect that our capital resources, revenues from MuGard sales and expected receipts due under our license agreements will be adequate to fund our current level of operations into the third quarter of 2012. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital funding in the future or enter into future license agreements for our products, we may not be able to continue as a going concern, which would have an adverse effect on our business and operations, and investors’ investment in us may decline.

 (2)  Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of the following (in thousands):

Amortizable intangible assets Patents	$          2,624	$        2,209	$      2,624	$      2,050

Amortization expense related to intangible assets totaled $53,000 and $159,000 for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and totaled $53,000 and $159,000 for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. The aggregate estimated amortization expense for intangible assets remaining as of September 30, 2011 is as follows (in thousands):

2011	$	53
2012		82
2013		44
2014		44
2015		44
over 5 years		148
Total	$	415

 (3)  Notes Payable

As of September 30, 2011, we had one convertible note outstanding in the principal amount of $5.5 million. One half of the note ($2.75 million) is due November 17, 2011, five days after the closing of our equity financing and the remaining $2.75 million under the note is due on September 13, 2012.

 (4)  Liquidity

The Company generated net loss allocable to common stockholders of $4,140,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and a loss of $9,328,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010. At September 30, 2011, our working capital deficit was $12,581,000.As of September 30, 2011, we had one convertible note outstanding in the principal amount of $5.5 million. One half of the note ($2.75 million) is due November 16, 2011, five days after the closing of our equity financing and the remaining $2.75 million under the note is due on September 13, 2012. Management believes that our current cash, revenues from MuGard sales and expected license fees should fund our expected burn rate into the third quarter of 2012. On November 10, 2011, we closed the sale of approximately 3.71 million shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 3.71 million shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $5.39 million. We will require additional funds to continue operations. These funds are expected to come from the future sales of equity and/or license agreements. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital funding in the future or enter into future license agreements for our products, we may not be able to continue as a going concern, which would have an adverse effect on our business and operations, and investors’ investment in us may decline.

 (5)  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash, cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accruals approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these items. The carrying value of the convertible long-term debt is at book value which approximates the fair value as the interest rate is at market value.

Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted fair value measurement guidance issued by the FASB related to financial assets and liabilities which define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This guidance establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

·   Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

·   Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

·   Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar valuation techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The guidance requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

We have segregated all financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine the fair value at the measurement date in the table below.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are summarized below:

(in thousands)
Description	As of September 30, 2011	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Total Gains (Losses)
Liabilities:   Derivative liability-
warrants	$1,775	$-	$1,775	$-	$3,312
preferred stock	$6,310	$-	$-	$6,310	$(470)

21

(in thousands)
Description	As of December 31, 2010	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Total Gains (Losses)
Liabilities:   Derivative liability-
warrants	$5,087	$-	$5,087	$-	$4,621
preferred stock	$5,840	$-	$-	$5,840	$(5,840)

In order to calculate the Level 3 Derivative liability - preferred stock, we used the Monte Carlo simulation to estimate future stock prices. The use of valuation techniques requires the Company to make various key assumptions for inputs into the model, including assumptions about the expected future volatility of the price of the Company’s stock. In estimating the fair value at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we based our selected volatility on the one-year historic volatility of the Company’s stock as we believe this is most representative of the expected volatility in the near future for the Company.

 (6)  Stock Based Compensation

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $344,000 and $767,000. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $284,000 and $838,000.

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010:

	Three months ended				Nine months ended

The Company generated net loss allocable to common stockholders of $4,140,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and a loss of $9,328,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010. At September 30, 2011, our working capital deficit was $12,581,000.As of September 30, 2011, we had one convertible note outstanding in the principal amount of $5.5 million. One half of the note ($2.75 million) is due November 16, 2011, five days after the closing of our equity financing and the remaining $2.75 million under the note is due on September 13, 2012. Management believes that our current cash, revenues from MuGard sales and expected license fees should fund our expected burn rate into the third quarter of 2012. We will require additional funds to continue operations. These funds are expected to come from the future sales of equity and/or license agreements. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital funding in the future or enter into future license agreements for our products, we may not be able to continue as a going concern, which would have an adverse effect on our business and operations, and investors' investment in us may decline.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 (5)  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash, cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accruals approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these items. The carrying value of the convertible long-term debt is at book value which approximates the fair value as the interest rate is at market value.

Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted fair value measurement guidance issued by the FASB related to financial assets and liabilities which define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This guidance establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

·   Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

·   Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

·   Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar valuation techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The guidance requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

We have segregated all financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine the fair value at the measurement date in the table below.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are summarized below:

(in thousands)
Description	As of September 30, 2011	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Total Gains (Losses)
Liabilities:   Derivative liability-
warrants	$1,775	$-	$1,775	$-	$3,312
preferred stock	$6,310	$-	$-	$6,310	$(470)

warrants	$5,087	$-	$5,087	$-	$4,621
preferred stock	$5,840	$-	$-	$5,840	$(5,840)

In order to calculate the Level 3 Derivative liability - preferred stock, we used the Monte Carlo simulation to estimate future stock prices. The use of valuation techniques requires the Company to make various key assumptions for inputs into the model, including assumptions about the expected future volatility of the price of the Company's stock. In estimating the fair value at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we based our selected volatility on the one-year historic volatility of the Company's stock as we believe this is most representative of the expected volatility in the near future for the Company.

Interim Financial Statements [Abstract]

Interim Financial Statements

 (1)  Interim Financial Statements

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2011, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders deficit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, were prepared by management without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise disclosed, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and changes in financial position for such periods, have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results which may be expected for a full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 contains financial information taken from the audited Access financial statements as of that date.

The report of our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, contained a fourth explanatory paragraph to reflect its significant doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our history of losses and our liquidity position, as discussed herein and in this Form 10-Q. We expect that our capital resources, revenues from MuGard sales and expected receipts due under our license agreements will be adequate to fund our current level of operations into the third quarter of 2012. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital funding in the future or enter into future license agreements for our products, we may not be able to continue as a going concern, which would have an adverse effect on our business and operations, and investors' investment in us may decline.
