Description of Business


Primary SIC Code: 2835
(As filed with the SEC)  

Avigen is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing small molecule therapeutics to treat serious neurological and neuromuscular disorders. Our current lead product candidates primarily address spasticity and neuromuscular spasm and neuropathic pain. Our goal is to retain rights to commercialize our products in North America and therefore we expect, when appropriate, to build a sales and marketing infrastructure. We intend to seek to out-license rights to develop and market our products outside the United States. We also intend to continue to look for opportunities to expand our pipeline of compounds through a combination of internal research, acquisitions, and in-licensing as appropriate. Avigen, Inc. is a Delaware corporation that was incorporated on October 22, 1992 and is based in the San Francisco Bay Area.  ... More ...
