Spherics, Inc. Offers Once Daily Extended Release Formulation for Sustained and Stable Pramipexole Delivery

WELLESLEY HILLS, Mass., Sept. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Joseph F. Finn, Jr., C.P.A. ("Finn"), Assignee of the assets of Spherics, Inc. ("Spherics") for the benefit of creditors, announced today that all pharmaceutical intellectual property will be sold at a sealed bid auction on October 10, 2008.

With SRx-503, Spherics has developed an improved version of a first and second line treatment for Parkinson's disease. Current global sales exceed $700 million (approx. $600 million US only), despite a severe side-effect profile (including motor fluctuations and GI and CNS AE's) and compliance issues (3x daily dosing). SRx-503 maintains a more stable release profile, bypasses the stomach to alleviate GI side effects and requires dosing only once daily.

Persons interested in bidding must sign a Confidentiality Agreement ("CA") obtained from Finn's office -- jffinnjr@earthlink.net or 781-237-8840. They will then receive a bid package and access to the Spherics electronic data room.
