The Nutritional Products segment?s products include a line of pediatric and adult nutritional. The Vascular Products segment?s products include a line of coronary, endovascular and vessel closure devices. In February 2008, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the Company's SIMCOR (Niaspan/simvastatin), a medicine for cholesterol management. In January 2008, Abbott?s HUMIRA (adalimumab) received approval from FDA, for moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis.

Target

PDL BioPharma Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of novel antibodies in oncology and immunologic diseases. It receives royalties and other revenues through licensing agreements with various biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies based on its antibody humanization technology platform. These licensing agreements have contributed to the development by the Company?s licensees of nine marketed products. The Company has several investigational compounds in clinical development for severe or life-threatening diseases, two of which it is developing in collaboration with Biogen Idec MA, Inc. (Biogen Idec). Its products include Daclizumab, Volociximab, HuLuc63, PDL192 and Nuvion. In March 2008, the Company closed the sale of the Cardiovascular Assets, which included Cardene, to EKR Therapeutics, Inc (EKR). However, the Company continues to perform development work for new formulations and presentations of Cardene pursuant to an agreement with EKR.
