Anesiva Launches Needle-Free Zingo(TM) to Reduce Pain from IV Starts and Blood Draws in Children
Date:6/30/2008

our efforts on the children's hospitals and academic medical centers with large pediatric units which facilitate the majority of acute and chronic pediatric care. Many of the patients served in these hospitals undergo peripheral venous access procedures repeatedly, and are undertreated, indicating a significant unmet medical need," said Nancy E. Donahue, senior vice president, sales and marketing. Anesiva estimates that approximately 18 million pediatric peripheral venous access procedures are performed annually in U.S. hospitals.

Anesiva and its co-promotion partner Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. are working in tandem to educate caregivers about the importance of addressing peripheral venous access pain in children, and to ensure Zingo availability through hospital pharmacies. Anesiva's seasoned team of 15 hospital-based regional account managers with an average of 14 years' industry experience, led by two directors who have a combined 30 years' experience, will drive the launch of this product in the United States. Sagent has assigned 15 field representatives, all of whom have an average of more than 18 years' hospital selling experience and whose national account representatives have an average of 25 years of hospital sales experience.

Zingo is currently manufactured with established, approved processes. Anesiva continues to pursue Zingo manufacturing scale-up in order to reduce cost of goods and meet anticipated increasing market demand.

Anesiva intends to grow a global brand for Zingo through geographically based license and distribution agreements with companies that have expertise in hospital-based markets in their territories, and has already entered into agreements for several major markets. Sigma Tau SpA will market Zingo in most major European markets; Medical Futures, Inc. is responsible for commercializing Zingo in Canada; and Green Vision Company will commercialize Zingo in several countries in the Middle East.
