Note 1 - Summary Of Accounting Policies

General

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB, and therefore, do not include all the information necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for a complete set of financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2008. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2007 financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on SEC Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2008 10-KSB.

Business and basis of presentation

IR BioSciences Holdings, Inc. (the "Company," "we," or "us") formerly GPN Network, Inc. ("GPN") is currently a development stage company under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 7. The Company, which was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on October 30, 2002, is a development-stage biopharmaceutical company. Through our wholly owned subsidiary, ImmuneRegen BioSciences, Inc., the Company is engaged in the research and development of potential drugs. The Company’s goal is to develop therapeutics to be used for the protection of the body from exposure to harmful agents such as toxic chemicals and radiation, as well as, biological agents, including influenza and anthrax. The Company’s research and development efforts are at a very early stage and Radilex and Viprovex, the Company’s potential drug candidates, have only undergone pre-clinical testing in mice. From its inception through the date of these financial statements, the Company has recognized no revenues and has incurred significant operating expenses.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, ImmuneRegen BioSciences, Inc. Significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to prior periods' data to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported losses.

Stock based compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123 (revised), "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS 123(R)) utilizing the modified prospective approach. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R) we accounted for stock option grant in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (the intrinsic value method), and accordingly, recognized compensation expense for stock option grants.

Under the modified prospective approach, SFAS 123(R) applies to new awards and to awards that were outstanding on January 1, 2006 that are subsequently modified, repurchased or cancelled. Under the modified prospective approach, compensation cost recognized in the nine months of fiscal 2006 includes compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006 based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). Prior periods were not restated to reflect the impact of adopting the new standard.

Interim financial statements

The accompanying balance sheet as of March 31, 2008, the statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, and for the period of inception (October 30, 2002) to March 31, 2008, and the statements of cash flows for three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, and from the period of inception (October 30, 2002) to March 31, 2008 are unaudited. These unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals), which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Long-lived assets

The Company accounts for its long-lived assets under the provision of Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets To Be Disposed Of." The Company's long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses, or a forecasted Inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should an impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset.

Note 5 - Notes Payable

On January 3, 2008, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with YA Global Investments, L.P. (the “Buyer”), pursuant to which the Buyer greed to purchase from the Company (i) up to $3 million of secured convertible debentures (the “Convertible Debentures”), which shall be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock and (ii) warrants to acquire up to 7,500,000 additional shares of Common Stock (the “Warrants”) (the “Financing”).
 
The initial closing of the Financing occurred on January 3, 2008, at which time the Company sold to the Buyer $2 million of the Convertible Debentures and the Warrants (the “First Closing”).  The Company, at its sole option, may elect to sell and issue to the Buyer an additional $1 million of Convertible Debentures within the six months following the execution of the Purchase Agreement (the “Second Closing”).  Obligations under the Convertible Debentures are guaranteed by ImmuneRegen BioSciences, Inc., the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Guarantor”). The Company’s obligations under the Convertible Debentures are secured by (i) all of the assets and property of the Guarantor pursuant to a Security Agreement and (ii) by Patent Collateral of the Company and the Guarantor in accordance with a Patent Security Agreement by and among the Company, the Buyer and the Guarantor.

The Convertible Debentures mature on December 31, 2010, unless extended by the holder, and accrue interest at the rate of 8% per annum.  Interest is payable in cash quarterly on the last day of each calendar quarter beginning on March 31, 2008, or at the Company’s option if “Equity Conditions”(as defined in the debenture) are satisfied, it may be paid by the issuance of Common Stock.  The Convertible Debentures are convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price equal to $0.20 per share.  On or after December 31, 2009 or if the Company’s fails to achieve certain milestones based on preclinical studies and submission of a Investigational New Drug Application, as set forth in the Convertible Debenture, the conversion price of the Convertible Debentures becomes the lower of (i) $0.20 per share or (ii) 80% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price during the five trading days immediately preceding conversion.
 
The Company may redeem a portion or all amounts outstanding under the Convertible Debentures prior to the December 31, 2010 provided that certain conditions to redemption have been satisfied.   The Company may force a conversion of the Convertible Debentures into Common Stock, provided that specified conditions have been satisfied.  Holders of the Convertible Debentures are subject to limitations on their right to convert the Convertible Debentures, or receive shares of Common Stock as payment of interest, if after giving effect to such conversion or receipt of shares, the holder would be deemed to beneficially own more than 9.99% of the Company’s then outstanding Common Stock.  Upon the occurrence of certain events of default defined in the Convertible Debentures, including the Company’s failure to pay the holder any amount of principal, interest, or other amounts when due, the full principal amount of the Convertible Debentures, together with interest and other amounts due, become immediately due and payable in cash, provided however, that holder may request payment of such amounts in Common Stock of the Company.
 
In the event the Company effects any “fundamental transaction” as defined in the Convertible Debentures, including a merger or consolidation of the Company or sale of more than 50% of its assets, the holder may (i) require the redemption of all amounts owed, including principal, accrued and unpaid interest and any other charges; (ii) require the conversion of the Convertible Debentures into shares of common stock and other securities, cash and property; or (iii) in the case of a merger or consolidation, require the surviving entity to issue to the holder a convertible debenture with a principal amount equal to the Convertible Debentures then held by the holder, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts, and with the same terms and conditions as the Convertible Debentures.

The Company placed $175,000 into an escrow account upon the First Closing, and if the Company elects to close the Second Closing it will place an additional $75,000 into escrow.  The funds in escrow will be used to compensate the Buyer’s investment manager for monitoring and managing the Buyer’s purchase and investment.  The $175,000 in escrow will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a 24 month period, with a monthly amortization expense of $7,292.   As of March 31, 2008, the balance remaining in the escrow account was $153,125.

The Company agreed to pay a $20,000 structuring fee to the Buyer’s investment manager. In addition, for the period from January 3, 2008 through 30 days after all amounts owed to the Buyer under the Convertible Debentures have been paid, the officers and directors of the Company agreed not to sell, transfer, pledge, or otherwise encumber or dispose of any securities of the Company except in accordance with the volume limitations set forth in Rule 144(e) of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The Warrants have an exercise price, subject to adjustments, of $0.25 per share and are exercisable at any time on or prior to December 31, 2012. The Warrants provide a right of cashless exercise if, at the time of exercise, there is no effective registration statement registering the resale of the shares underlying the Warrants. Holders of the Warrants are subject to limitations on their right to exercise the Warrants, if after giving effect to the exercise, a holder and its affiliates would be deemed to beneficially own more than 9.99% of the Company’s then outstanding Common Stock.

The Buyer has a right of first refusal on any future funding that involves the issuance of the Company’s capital stock for so long as a portion of the Convertible Debentures is outstanding.

During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company accrued interest in the amount of $38,575 on this note.  The Company paid $19,299 of the accrued interest in cash, and the remaining $19,276 will be paid in shares of common stock.   As of March 31, 2008, the shares of common stock have not been issued and the interest in the amount of $19,276 is shown as common stock subscribed on the Company’s balance sheet at March 31, 2008.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued warrants to acquire 7,500,000 additional shares of common stock.  These warrants were valued using the guidance of EITF 00-27, resulting in a value of $226,754.  The value of these warrants was taken as a discount to the convertible note, and will be amortized over the three year life of the note.  As of March 31, 3008, the remaining discount to the convertible notes payable is $207,858.

The following information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto. The analysis set forth below is provided pursuant to applicable Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and is not intended to serve as a basis for projections of future events.

Overview

IR BioSciences Holdings, Inc. is a development-stage biotechnology company. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary ImmuneRegen BioSciences, Inc., we are engaged in the research and development of potential drug candidates, Homspera® and its derivatives, Radilex® and Viprovex®. Although containing the identical active ingredient Homspera, we defined Radilex and Viprovex as derivatives of Homspera due to the potential difference in formulations and indications for use. Our goals include developing these potential drug candidates to be used as possible countermeasures for homeland security threats, including radiological, chemical and biological agents, and to meet the commercial need for similar beneficial effects in conditions such as radiation therapy, influenza, anthrax and potentially other microbial ailments. We have discovered activities of Homspera that may potentially open additional commercialization opportunities in areas such as human adult stem cell stimulation, vaccine adjuvants, which stimulate the immune system above that of a stand-alone vaccine, and wound healing.

Our patents, patent applications and continued research are partially derived from discoveries made during research studies related to the function of Substance P, which is found in the body and has a large number of actions. These studies were funded by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) in the early 1990s and were conducted by research scientists, including our co-founders Drs. Mark Witten and David Harris. In the course of research on Substance P, scientists created a number of synthetic analogues, structural derivatives with slight chemical differences, for study. One of these, which we have named Homspera, is the basis for our drug development efforts and our intellectual property. All of our research and development efforts are at the pre-clinical stage and Homspera has only undergone exploratory studies to evaluate its biological activity in small animals. There can be no assurance that our interpretation of study results will prove to be accurate after further testing, and our beliefs regarding the potential uses of our drug candidates may never materialize.

Our current focus is to develop Homspera for regenerating or strengthening the human immune system, in part, through stimulating human adult stem cells. It is the belief of our management that the stem cell activity exhibited by Homspera underlies some of the effects previously reported in potential applications like treatment for radiation exposure and infectious disease using Homspera derivatives Radilex and Viprovex, respectively, which are described below.  Recent studies have evaluated the effects of Homspera on human adult stem cell activity. Additionally, ongoing studies are being performed to evaluate the efficacy of Homspera as a potential product to increase the healing rate of wounds.
 
 
 
We are researching Radilex for use as a potential treatment for acute exposure to radiation. We believe that Radilex, if developed, may be an acceptable candidate to be marketed to governmental agencies for procurement. Further, we believe that a commercial market may exist for the use of Radilex as it relates to the treatment of radiation-induced side effects of cancer treatments, either as a stand-alone treatment or as a co-therapeutic agent to be used with other therapies.

Viprovex is being researched by us for use in potential treatments of exposure to biological agents, such as infectious disease, which include influenza and anthrax. We believe that Viprovex, if developed, can be used in potential applications for sale to governments for the treatment of exposure to anthrax and pandemic influenza. In addition, we believe that potential commercial opportunities may exist for the treatment of seasonal influenza and other viral or bacterial infections, either as a stand-alone drug or as an adjuvant to other existing drugs.  Ongoing studies are being performed to evaluate the efficacy of Viprovex as a vaccine adjuvant to enhance immune response to a given dose of vaccine.  Based on early studies on Homspera and existing literature on Substance P, we are also researching the efficacy of Viprovex as a potential treatment for exposure to chemical agents, such as formalin.

To date we have submitted preliminary study data to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and have been issued two Pre-Investigational New Drug (PIND) numbers, one for the potential use of Radilex in the treatment of acute radiation syndrome and the other for the potential use of Viprovex in the treatment of avian influenza. We have contracted with an FDA regulatory consultant to assist us in our preparation and submission of an Investigational New Drug application (IND), a necessary prerequisite to human clinical studies, which can only follow after the FDA’s allowance of our IND.

We have filed patent applications directed to various methods of using and compositions comprising Substance P analogues. We presently own at least five issued patents, including at least two issued U.S. patents and at least three issued foreign patents, one of which has been registered in nine countries in the European Union. We also have at least 61 pending patent applications, including at least 10 pending U.S. utility patent applications, at least 10 pending U.S. provisional applications, at least 4 pending international patent applications, and at least 37 pending foreign patent applications. All inventions embodied in these applications and issued patents have been assigned to the company by the inventors.

Our potential drug candidates, Homspera, Radilex and Viprovex, are at pre-clinical stages of development and may not be shown to be safe or effective and may never receive regulatory approval. Neither Homspera, Radilex nor Viprovex have been tested in large animals or humans. There is no guarantee that regulatory authorities will ever permit human testing of Homspera, Radilex, Viprovex or any other potential products derived from Homspera. Even if such testing is permitted, none of Homspera, Radilex, Viprovex or any other potential drug candidates, if any, derived from Homspera may be successfully developed or shown to be safe or effective in humans.

The results of our pre-clinical studies and clinical trials may not be indicative of future clinical trial results. A commitment of substantial resources to conduct time-consuming research, pre-clinical studies and clinical trials will be required if we are to develop any commercial applications using Homspera or any derivatives thereof. It is possible that partnerships and/or licensing agreements will not develop during the preclinical and/or clinical stages of development, if at all. Delays in planned patient enrollment in our future clinical trials may result in increased costs, program delays or both. None of our potential technologies may prove to be safe or effective in clinical trials. Approval of the FDA, or other regulatory approvals, including export license permissions, may not be obtained and even if successfully developed and approved, our potential applications may not achieve market acceptance. Any potential applications resulting from our programs may not be successfully developed or commercially available for a number of years, if at all.

To date, we have not obtained regulatory approval for, or commercialized any applications, using Homspera or any of its derivatives. We have incurred significant losses since our inception and we expect to incur annual losses for at least the next three years as we continue with our drug research and development efforts.
 
 
 
Results of Operations for the Three Month Periods Ended March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2007

Revenue

We have not generated any revenues from operations from our inception. We believe we will begin earning revenues from operations during calendar year 2009 as we transition from a development stage company.

Sales, General, and Administrative Expenses

Sales, general, and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $1,176,907 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $302,797 or approximately 35% compared to SG&A of $874,110 during the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase is primarily due to higher costs for research and development, payroll  and related expenses, financing costs and legal and accounting fees. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, this amount consisted primarily of research and development costs of $258,171, payroll and related expenses of $346,838, inclusive of an incentive bonus of $90,750 in cash for Michael K. Wilhelm, C.E.O. per the terms of his employment agreement, financing costs of $91,875, legal and accounting fees of $201,026, consulting and professional fees of $109,270 and non-cash compensation costs of $47,182.

The Company expects SG&A to increase during the coming twelve months as we continue to build out the Company's infrastructure and to develop the Company's potential drugs and therapeutics.

Interest Income (net)

Interest expense (net) was $46,327 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $67,193 or approximately 322% compared to interest income of $20,866 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Interest expense increased during the three months ended March 31, 2008 due to interest costs relating to the securities purchase agreement with YA Global Investments, L.P. in first quarter of 2008.

The Company expects interest expense to increase approximately 50% per quarter beginning in the third quarter as we sell additional securities to YA Global Investments per the terms of the securities purchase agreement.
 
Net Loss

For the reasons stated above our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $1,223,234 or $0.01 per share, an increase of $361,875 or approximately 42% compared to a net loss of $861,359 for the three months ended March 31, 2007.

Our independent certified public accountants have stated in their report included in our annual report on SEC Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2008 that we have incurred a net loss and negative cash flows from operations of $5,463,958 and $2,456,038, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2007. This loss, in addition to a lack of operational history, raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In the absence of significant revenue and profits, and since we do not expect to generate significant revenues in the foreseeable future, we, in order to fund operations, will be completely dependent on additional debt and equity financing arrangements. There is no assurance that any financing will be sufficient to fund our capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008. No assurance can be given that any such additional funding will be available or that, if available, can be obtained on terms favorable to us. If we are unable to raise needed funds on acceptable terms, we will not be able to develop or enhance our products, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements. A material shortage of capital will require us to take drastic steps such as reducing our level of operations, disposing of selected assets or seeking an acquisition partner. If cash is insufficient, we will not be able to continue operations.

The Company expects losses to increase during the coming twelve months. The Company does not expect to begin to generate revenue in the coming twelve months, and our costs are likely to increase as continue our research and development efforts on our early, pre-clinical stage products and build out our corporate infrastructure.
 
 

Plan of Operations

We expect to continue to incur increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, primarily due to our continued research and development activities attributable to Homspera, Radilex, Viprovex or any other proposed product, if any, derived from Homspera and general and administrative activities.

The preliminary results of our pre-clinical studies using Homspera, Radilex or Viprovex may not be indicative of results that will be obtained from subsequent studies or from more extensive trials. Further, our pre-clinical or clinical trials may not be successful, and we may not be able to obtain the required regulatory approvals in a timely fashion, or at all.

Product Research and Development

We incurred an expense of $258,171 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 in research and development activities related to the development of Homspera, Radilex and Viprovex versus an expense of $76,834 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. From our inception in October 2002, we have spent $1,826,357 in research and development activities. These costs only include the manufacture and delivery of our drug by third party manufacturers and payments to contract research organizations and consultants for consulting related to our studies and costs of performing such studies. Significant costs relating to research and development, such as compensation for Dr. Siegel have been classified in officer’s salaries for consistency of financial reporting.

We anticipate that during the next 12 months we will increase our research and development spending to a total of approximately $800,000 in an effort to further develop Homspera, Radilex and Viprovex. This research and development cost estimate includes additional animal pharmacology studies, formulation and animal safety/toxicity studies. If we receive additional funds, through investment funding, licensing agreements or grants, we expect we will further increase our research and development spending.

We believe that initial revenues, if any, will likely be generated through partnerships, alliances and/or licensing agreements with pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Our focus during the next 12 months will be to identify those companies which we believe may have an interest in our proposed products and attempt to negotiate arrangements for potential partnerships, alliances and/or licensing arrangements. Alliances between pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies can take a variety of organizational forms and involve many different payment structures such as upfront payments, milestone payments, equity injections and royalty payments. To date, we have not entered into discussions with and have no agreements or arrangements with any such companies. Even if we are successful in entering into such a partnership or alliance or licensing our technology, we anticipate that the earliest we may begin to generate revenues from operations would be calendar year 2009. There is no assurance that we will ever be successful in reaching such agreements or ever generate revenues from operations.
 
We will need to generate significant revenues from product sales and or related royalties and license agreements to achieve and maintain profitability. Through March 31, 2008, we had no revenues from any product sales, royalties or licensing fees, and have not achieved profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. Our ability to achieve profitability depends upon, among other things, our ability to develop products, obtain regulatory approval for products under development and enter into agreements for product development, manufacturing and commercialization. Moreover, we may never achieve significant revenues or profitable operations from the sale of any of our potential products or technologies.

If product development or approval does not occur as scheduled, our time to reach market will be lengthened and our costs will substantially increase. Additionally, we may be requested to expand our findings to gather additional data or we may not achieve the desired results. If so, we may have to design new protocols and conduct additional studies. This will increase our costs and delay the time to market for our potential products, if any.  Any of these occurrences would have a material negative impact on our business and our liquidity as it may cause us to seek additional capital sooner than expected and allow our competitors to successfully enter the market ahead of us.

If we are successful in achieving desirable results for these applications, we intend to design the protocols and begin further studies for this and other applications, when capital is available. As we have only collected preliminary data and additional studies are required, we cannot predict when, if ever, a viable treatments for these indications can be commercialized. If we do not observe significant results or we lack the capital to further the development, we may abandon such research and development efforts; thereby limiting our future potential revenues.

If we are successful in completing our studies and the results are as we anticipate, we intend to prepare and submit the necessary documentation to the FDA and other regulatory agencies for approval. If approval for Homspera, Radilex and/or Viprovex is granted, we expect to begin efforts to commercialize our product, if any, immediately thereafter, however, since we are currently in the pre-clinical stage of development, it will take an indeterminate amount of time in development before we have a marketable drug, if ever.



 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There were no off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2008.

Revenues

We have not generated any revenues from operations from our inception. We believe we will begin earning revenues from operations during calendar year 2009 as we transition from a development stage company.

Costs And Expenses

From our inception through March 31, 2008, we have incurred losses of $19,972,372. These expenses were associated principally with equity-based compensation to employees and consultants, product development costs and professional services, and equity based compensation to shareholders for the penalty incurred for the late registration of shares.

Liquidity And Capital Resources

At March 31, 2008, we had current assets of $913,104 consisting of cash of $695,469 and other current assets of $217,635. At March 31, 2008, we also had current liabilities of $673,361, consisting of accounts payable of $559,988 and accrued liabilities of $113,373. This resulted in net working capital at March 31, 2008 of $239,743. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company used cash in operating activities of $1,349,054. From the date of inception (October 30, 2002) to March 31, 2008, the Company has had a net loss of $19,972,372 and has used cash of $9,799,034 in operating activities.

We currently have no revenue. There is no guarantee that our business model will be successful, or that we will be able to generate sufficient revenue to fund future operations. As a result, we expect our operations to continue to use net cash, and that we will be required to seek additional debt or equity financings during the coming quarters. Since inception, we have financed our operations through debt and equity financing. While we have raised capital to meet our working capital and financing needs in the past, additional financing is required in order to meet our current and projected cash flow deficits from operations and development of our product line. We met our cash requirements from our inception through March 31, 2008 via the private placement of $7,877,901 of our common stock and $2,733,628 from the issuance of notes payable, net of repayments.

On January 3, 2008, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with YA Global Investments, L.P., pursuant to which YA Global Investments, L.P. agreed to purchase from us (i) up to $3 million of secured convertible debentures, which shall be convertible into shares of our common stock and (ii) warrants to acquire up to 7,500,000 additional shares of our common stock. The initial closing occurred on January 3, 2008, at which time we sold to YA Global Investments, L.P. $2 million of the convertible debentures and the warrants. The company, at our sole option, may elect to sell and issue to YA Global Investments, L.P. an additional $1 million of secured convertible debentures within the six months following the execution of the securities purchase agreement.

Pursuant to our employment agreement with Michael Wilhelm, our President and Chief Executive Officer, dated December 16, 2002, we paid a salary of $125,000 and $175,000 to Mr. Wilhelm during the first and second years of his employment, respectively. Thereafter we paid through August 10, 2005, an annual salary of $250,000. On August 10, 2005, we entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Wilhelm. The new employment agreement calls for a salary at the rate of $275,000 per annum and provides for bonus incentives. Mr. Wilhelm's salary is payable in regular installments in accordance with the customary payroll practices of our company. Further, pursuant to the terms of the change of control agreement between Mr. Wilhelm and us, we agree to pay Mr. Wilhelm his salary for a period of 18 months from the date an involuntary termination, payable in accordance with the Company's compensation practice. Involuntary termination is defined as the termination of Mr. Wilhelm employment by Company without cause or due to constructive termination at any time within one-year from a change of control event, as defined in the agreement.

Pursuant to our employment agreement with John Fermanis, our Chief Financial Officer, dated February 15, 2005, we paid a salary of $60,000 until we completed a financing of $500,000 or more. This occurred on March 4, 2005 when we completed a Tender Offer for warrants totaling $1,190,857 net of fees. From March 4, 2005, until December 31, 2005, we paid an annual salary of $85,000. Thereafter, we paid an annual salary of $98,000 for the second year ending December 31, 2006 and an annual salary of $112,000 for the third year ending December 31, 2007. Mr. Fermanis' salary is payable in regular installments in accordance with our customary payroll practices. Mr. Fermanis also received 100,000 shares of our Common Stock, which were earned at the rate of 1/12 or 8,333 per month beginning January 2005.
 
 
 
Pursuant to terms of our employment agreement with Mr. Fermanis, our Chief Financial Officer, dated January 1, 2008, we pay an annual base salary of $130,000 for the first year and $140,000 for the second year.  Mr. Fermanis will also be eligible for discretionary bonuses under the Company’s stock option plan during his employment.  The employment agreement has a term of two years, subject to early termination provisions.  The Company may terminate the employment agreement at any time for cause, as defined in the employment agreement, and upon 15 days written notice without cause.  Mr. Fermanis may terminate the employment agreement for any reason with 30 days written notice.  Upon termination of Mr. Fermanis’ employment by the Company without cause or constructive termination, as defined in the employment agreement, the Company agrees to pay to Mr. Fermanis the remainder of his salary for the year or six months salary, whichever is greater, and any accrued vacation.  

Pursuant to our employment agreement with Hal N. Siegel, our Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer, dated October 23, 2006, we will pay an annual base salary of $200,000 for the first year and $210,000 for the second year. Mr. Siegel will also be eligible for discretionary bonuses under our stock option plan during his employment. In addition, Mr. Siegel received options with a term of five years to purchase 200,000 shares of our Common Stock. The options are exercisable at $0.20 per share. The employment agreement has a term of two years, subject to early termination provisions. Upon termination of Mr. Siegel's employment by us without cause or constructive termination, as defined in the agreement, we agree to pay to Mr. Siegel the remainder of his salary for the year or six months salary, whichever is greater, and any accrued vacation. In addition, we entered into a change of control agreement with Hal Siegel.  Pursuant to the terms of the change of control agreement, we agree to pay Mr. Siegel his salary for a period of 18 months from the date of an involuntary termination, payable in accordance with our compensation practice. Involuntary termination is defined as the termination of Mr. Siegel's employment by us without cause or due to constructive termination at any time within one-year of a change of control event, as defined in the agreement.
 
Since our inception, we have been seeking additional third-party funding. During such time, we have retained a number of different investment banking firms to assist us in locating available funding; however, we have not yet been successful in obtaining any of the long-term funding needed to make us into a commercially viable entity. During the period from October 2004 to March 31, 2008, we were able to obtain financing of $10,561,529, including a series of private placements of our securities which resulted in net proceeds to us of $7,877,901 and $2,683,628 from the sale of notes payable, net of repayments. The notes payable include a transaction in January 2008 where we sold $2 million in secured convertible debentures which resulted in net proceeds to us of $1,825,000. We also expect to sell an additional $1 million of the secured convertible debentures after July 3, 2008 as per the terms of the securities purchase agreement with YA Global Investments L.P. Based on our current plan of operations all of our current funding is expected to be depleted by the end of August, 2008. The additional $1 million is expected to fund operations until January 2009. If we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.
 
Our registered independent certified public accountants have stated in their report, dated March 28, 2008, that the Company's recurring losses and negative cash flow raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
 
While we have raised capital to meet our working capital and financing needs in the past through debt and equity financings, additional financing will be required in order to implement our business plan and to meet our current and projected cash flow deficits from operations and development. There can be no assurance that we will be able to consummate future debt or equity financings in a timely manner on a basis favorable to us, or at all. If we are unable to raise needed funds, we will not be able to develop or enhance our potential products, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements. A material shortage of capital will require us to take drastic steps such as reducing our level of operations, disposing of selected assets or seeking an acquisition partner.

Until such time, if at all, as we receive adequate funding, we intend to continue to defer payment of all of our obligations which are capable of being deferred, which actions have resulted in some vendors demanding cash payment for their goods and services in advance, and other vendors refusing to continue to do business with us. We do not expect to generate a positive cash flow from our operations for at least several years, if at all, due to anticipated expenditures for research and development activities, administrative and marketing activities, and working capital requirements and expect to continue to attempt to raise further capital through one or more further private placements. Based on our operating expenses and anticipated research and development activities we believe we have sufficient capital to meet our operating needs through August 2008. Thereafter, we believe that we will require an additional $2,500,000 to meet our expenses over the next 12 months.
 
 
Acquisition or Disposition of Plant and Equipment

We did not dispose or acquire any significant property, plant or equipment during the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. We do not anticipate the sale of any significant property, plant or equipment during the next twelve months.

Number of Employees

From our inception through the period ended March 31, 2008, we have relied primarily on the services of outside consultants for services.  As of March 31, 2008 we had eleven total employees: seven full-time employees, two part-time employees and two contract employees. Our full-time employees are Michael K. Wilhelm, our Chief Executive Officer; John N. Fermanis, our Chief Financial Officer; Hal N. Siegel, Ph.D., Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer, a Science Director, two scientific program managers; and, the seventh serves in an administrative role. In order for us to attract and retain quality personnel, we anticipate we will have to offer competitive salaries to future employees. We do not anticipate our employment base will significantly change during the next twelve months.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses and allocated charges during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
We describe our significant accounting policies in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007. We discuss our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and or Plan of Operation in the Form 10-KSB.  Other than as indicated in this quarterly report, there have been no material revisions to the critical accounting policies as filed in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007 with the SEC on March 31, 2008.
 
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.
 
 
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and which also are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Changes in internal controls

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the first quarter of 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings.
 
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Other than with respect to the following risk factors, which have been updated and restated in their entirety below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the "Risk Factors" section of our the "Risk Factors" section of our annual report on Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2008.

Risks Related to Our Financial Results

We have limited cash resources, an accumulated deficit, are not currently profitable and expect to incur significant expenses in the near future.

As of March 31, 2008, we had a working capital of $239,743. This amount consists of cash of $695,469 and other current assets of $217,635 less accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $673,361.  We have incurred a net loss of $19,972,372  for the period from our inception in October 30, 2002 to March 31, 2008, and have always experienced negative cash flow. We expect to continue to experience negative cash flow and operating losses through at least 2010 and possibly thereafter. As a result, we will need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability.
 
We may fail to become and remain profitable or we may be unable to fund our continuing losses, in which case our business may fail.

We are focused on product development and have not generated any revenue to date. We do not believe we will begin earning revenues from operations until the calendar year 2009 as we transition from a development stage company. We have incurred operating losses since our inception. Our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $1,223,234.  As of March 31, 2008, we had an accumulated deficit of $19,972,372.
 
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On January 3, 2008, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with YA Global Investments, L.P. (the “Buyer”), pursuant to which the Buyer agreed to purchase from the Company (i) up to $3 million of secured convertible debentures, which shall be convertible into shares of our common stock and (ii) warrants to acquire up to 7,500,000 additional shares of our common stock (the “Financing”). The initial closing of the Financing occurred on January 3, 2008, at which time the Company sold to the Buyer $2 million of the convertible debentures and the warrants. The Company, at its sole option, may elect to sell and issue to the Buyer an additional $1 million of convertible debentures within the six months following the execution of the securities purchase agreement. The debentures are convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of the common stock at a price equal to $0.20 per share.
