Alteon Inc. is listed on AMEX (ALT). We are a product-based biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery and development of small molecule drugs to reverse or slow down diseases of aging and complications of diabetes.

As we announced in February 2005, and as discussed further below, we have voluntarily and temporarily suspended enrollment of patients into our ongoing clinical studies of alagebrium, pending receipt of additional pre-clinical data, which are expected by mid-year 2005.
