Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, a division of Wyeth (NYSE: WYE), with which Progenics collaborates in the development and commercialization of RELISTOR®, has informed Progenics that global net sales of RELISTOR for the fourth quarter of 2008 were $1.5 million, as compared to $0.8 million in the third quarter of 2008. Wyeth began full promotion of RELISTOR in mid-August, under a program that included sales detailing, the offering of early experience trial kits and company-directed educational programs.  Global net sales for 2008, which commenced in June, totaled $4.4 million.

RELISTOR is the first drug in a novel class for a completely new therapeutic use – opioid-induced constipation.  The approved indication for RELISTOR addresses the needs of individuals with advanced illness receiving palliative care.  Ongoing clinical studies have the goal of expanding the use of RELISTOR in other patient settings.
