Biopharmaceutical company ImaRx Therapeutics of Tucson, AZ, reported revenue gains for the first quarter of 2008.
For the period (end-March 31), revenue increased to $1.9 million, up 63% from $1.2 million reported in the same period of 2007. ImaRx attributed the revenue growth to sales of urokinase, its therapy for treating acute massive pulmonary embolism.
The company's net loss for the period was $2.5 million, compared with $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2007. The increase was primarily a result of increased selling, general, and administrative expenses offset partially by increased sales of urokinase, which ImaRx is rebranding under the name Kinlytic, according to the company.
