Hyal stock tanks on lost marketing deal
Article Abstract:
Mississauga, Ontario-based Hyal Pharmaceutical Corp. suffered a failure with its proposed marketing deal with Melville, NY-based Altana Inc. for its anti-cancer Solarase skin cream. Altana opted to cancel its talks with Hyal Pharmaceutical regarding a possible marketing deal for Solarase. The development, which came after Hyal Pharmaceutical earlier failed in its efforts to create a gel for treating pain from arthritis, resulted to a 36% decline in the prices of the company's stock on Oct. 8, 1998.
