  
    
    The primary reason for the $170,000 increase of investor relations expenses was due to stock-based compensation of $163,000 for investor relations services
provided to us as well as other expenses such as press releases and fees for investor
conferences attended by the Company.
    
    Consulting expenses in the third quarter of 2010 were $64,000 more than the prior year
quarter mainly due to the stock-based compensation charge of $53,000 for the value of a
stock option provided to an executive recruiter for a retained executive search.
    
    Also, we incurred an additional $16,000 for legal fees on general corporate matters and
$17,000 for travel costs related to the investor outreach conducted by us during this
quarter and other business meetings.
    
    The primary reason for the decrease in personnel expenses of $59,000 is due to a lower
salary base and stock-based compensation for employees. The salaries were $8,000 lower as
a result of a net decrease in the salary base resulting from the resignation of the former
chief executive officer, partially offset by the addition of the salary for the chief
business officer hired in February 2010. Stock-based compensation was $51,000 lower as the
net number of options being amortized was less due primarily to full vesting of the former
chief executive officers stock options in the first quarter of 2010, partially offset by
the granting of stock options to the chief business officer in February 2010.
  
    
    As a result of the separation agreement entered into by us and our former chief
executive officer, we recognized aggregate one-time expenses of approximately $416,000.
This amount was comprised of approximately $242,000 related to the accrual of continued
salary and medical benefits to be provided for a period of one year after the separation
date of February 17, 2010 and approximately $174,000 of stock-based compensation expense
related to the modification of terms for the former chief executive officers stock
options.

    The one-time expense noted above, was partially offset by a decrease in personnel
expenses of $130,000 due to a lower salary base and stock-based compensation for employees.
The salaries were $28,000 lower as a result of net decrease in the salary base resulting
from the resignation of the former chief executive officer, partially offset by the
addition of the salary for the chief business officer hired in February 2010. Stock-based
compensation was $102,000 lower as the net number of options being amortized was less due
to full vesting of the former chief executive officers stock options in the first quarter
of 2010, partially offset by the granting of stock options to the chief business officer in
February 2010.
    
    The primary reason for the $164,000 increase of investor relations expenses was
due to stock-based compensation net increase of $140,000 for investor relations
services provided to us as well as an increase of $24,000 for other expenses such as press
releases and fees for investor conferences attended by the Company.
    
    Also, we incurred an additional $38,000 for legal fees on general corporate and
intellectual property matters and $37,000 for travel costs primarily related the investor
outreach conducted by us during this year and other business meetings.
    
    Consulting expenses for this period of 2010 were $28,000 more than the prior year mainly
due to the net stock-based compensation charge increase of $38,000 primarily from the stock
option provided to an executive recruiter for a retained executive search, offset by a
decrease of $10,000 in consulting fees for other consulting services provided.

    During the same period in the prior year, the Phase 3 study for Ketotransdel® was
on-going and therefore, we recognized approximately $478,000 of expenses related to the
study during that period. The expenses were primarily for the investigator payments owed
to the clinical sites for the patients they enrolled in the study and the fees incurred by
our contract research organization for their services provided in conducting the study.
    
    The decrease in consulting expenses of approximately $70,000 is due to fees and
stock-based compensation incurred by a consultant for management of the Phase 3 trial in
the prior period.
    
    The increase in personnel expenses of approximately $63,000 was primarily related to
stock-based compensation and wages of our chief medical officer who was hired in October
2009. This position was not filled in the same period of the prior year.
    
    Due to additional services and analysis performed by our contract manufacturer, these
costs increased by $52,000 in comparison to the same period last year.
  
    
    During the same period in the prior year, the Phase 3 study for Ketotransdel® was
on-going and therefore, we recognized approximately $2.45 million of expenses related to
the study during that period. The expenses were primarily for the investigator payments
owed to the clinical sites for the patients they enrolled in the study and the fees
incurred by our contract research organization for their services provided in conducting
the study. In the current period, we only recognized a minimal amount of expense, which
was incurred by our contract research organization for final administrative activities
related to the study.

 You should consider carefully the following information about the risks described below,

other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, before you decide to buy or maintain an
investment in our common stock. We believe the risks described below are the risks that are
material to us as of the date of this quarterly report. If any of the following risks actually
occur, our business financial condition, results of operations and future growth prospects would
likely be materially and adversely affected. In these circumstances, the market price of our common
stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of the money you paid to buy our common
stock. The risk factors set forth below with an asterisk (*) next to the title are new risk factors
or risk factors containing changes, including any material changes from the risk factors set forth

Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2010.

 *The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our 2009 consolidated
financial statements contains a going concern modification, and we will need additional financing
to execute our business plan, fund our operations and to continue as a going concern, which
additional financing may not be available on a timely basis, or at all.

The use of our technologies could potentially conflict with the rights of others.
  We will be dependent on outside manufacturers in the event that we successfully develop our
product candidates into commercial products; therefore, we will have limited control of the
manufacturing process, access to raw materials, timing for delivery of finished products and costs.
One manufacturer may constitute the sole source of one or more of our products.
    We are dependent on third parties to conduct clinical trials and non-clinical studies of our
drug candidates and to provide services for certain core aspects of our business. Any interruption
or failure by these third parties to meet their obligations pursuant to various agreements with us
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial

Risks Relating to Our Industry
 If we are unable to compete with other companies that develop rival products to our products,
then we may never gain market share or achieve profitability.

pharmaceutical industries, which could make our products obsolete and reduce our potential
revenues.

an adequate level of reimbursement from third-party payors.

business.
  Risks Relating to the Common Stock

other management systems and resources may not be adequately prepared.
