Anesiva Commences Phase 2 Trial of Adlea(TM) in Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery
Date:7/17/2008

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., July 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Anesiva, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANSV) today announced that it has begun a Phase 2 clinical trial of Adlea(TM), the company's long-acting, site specific, non-opioid drug candidate for the management of acute pain in patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery involving rotator cuff repair.

Adlea is currently in two pivotal Phase 3 trials in the U.S.: one in total knee replacement surgeries and one in bunionectomy surgeries. An additional Phase 2 Adlea trial is in progress in total hip replacement surgeries. These trials are among those intended to support an Adlea label indication for the management of acute pain following orthopedic surgery.

The Phase 2 arthroscopic shoulder surgery trial is being conducted in South Korea. Unlike the United States, where the procedure is often conducted on an outpatient basis, arthroscopic shoulder surgery patients in South Korea are routinely hospitalized for up to two days, thus allowing more extensive near-term follow-up.

"We believe Adlea holds promise for treating pain associated with a number of orthopedic surgical indications, and may reduce the need for other pain treatments such as opioids," said Michael L. Kranda, Anesiva's president and chief executive officer. "As we pursue a broad indication of management of post-surgical pain following orthopedic procedures, each specific procedure that we can evaluate will add to the breadth of available data for Adlea."

Arthroscopic surgery is performed through small incisions using an arthroscope, or camera, to visualize the inside of a joint. Through the incisions, a surgeon inserts a camera and small instruments to perform the procedure. According to the American Aca
