I keep hearing that the chances of Aventis and TKTX winning (and therefore Cell Genesys) in Europe and Asia are much better - although I have yet to hear any updates on that front.

Some things from Yahoo worth reading
drugandmarket.com
Among the companies at the vanguard of hemophilia research are
Cell Genesys, Targeted Genetics, Novo Nordisk, and Avigen.

Cell Genesys Inc. (Foster City, CA) and collaborators from the
National Institutes of Health (NIH; Bethesda, MD) recently
announced at the American Society for Gene Therapy Conference
that therapeutic levels of factor IX models of hemophilia B were
restored in non-human primates following a single administration of
hemophilia gene therapy. The therapy, which was delivered to the
liver using Cell GeneSys' proprietary adeno-associated viral (AAV)
gene delivery system, was shown to be safe and well tolerated in
a variety of clinical assays. In addition, a potentially harmful
immune response against the gene therapy was not observed
during the study.
