Item 3.02  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

        On September 26, 2005, we sold 4,499,336 shares of our common stock, and warrants to purchase 719,894 shares of our common stock, in a private placement to King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. for a total purchase price of $10,000,000. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid. The warrants are exercisable for a three-year period commencing September 26, 2005, at an exercise price of $2.22 per share. King purchased the stock and warrants pursuant to our Collaborative Development and Marketing Agreement with King dated August 12, 2004, and our Securities Purchase Agreement with King, dated August 18, 2004.

        We made the sale to King, an accredited investor, pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933. King represented to us that it was purchasing the securities for its own account for investment and not with a view toward resale or distribution to others. The certificates representing the shares of common stock and warrants bear restrictive legends.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
