Item 5.     Other Events.
 
On September 24, 2002, our partner Genmab A/S issued a press release in which it publicly announced that its HuMax-CD4 product, a fully human antibody that targets the CD4 receptor on cells known as T-cells, was found not to be effective in combination with methotrexate in a Phase II study of 155 patients with active rheumatoid arthritis. A copy of the relevant portions of Genmab’s press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
 
We have a collaboration with Genmab relating to the use of our fully human antibody technology for the development of therapeutic fully human antibody products and we currently have an equity interest of approximately 30% in Genmab.
