Item 8.01.  
Other Events.

As previously reported in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Transdel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Company”) is continuing to seek a commercial partner for Ketotransdel®, its lead pain product candidate.  Ketotransdel utilizes the Company’s patented Transdel™ cream formulation technology to deliver the active drug, ketoprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug,  through the skin directly into the underlying tissues where the drug exerts its well-known anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.  The Company is actively pursuing discussions with U.S. and foreign based potential partners with sales and marketing infrastructures that can provide financial support for the continued Phase 3 clinical program for Ketotransdel.  There can be no assurance that the Company will enter into a commercial partnership on acceptable terms, on a timely basis, or at all.    In addition, if the Company raises additional funds through collaboration and/or licensing arrangements, it may be required to relinquish potentially valuable rights to Ketotransdel, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.
