Atragen - Tretinoin Information....

A venture fund OAK INVESTMENT PARTNERS (et al) has funded both Genzyme and Aronex for many years. Both companies are identified as "Portfolio Companies" at the OAK web site.

oakinv.com

The ATRAGEN drug, and its collaboration with Genzyme is identified in the ARONEX Filings.

But OAK Partners identify the drug.... "The company (Aronex) has a collaboration with Genzyme Corporation to develop TRETINOIN for the treatment of KAPOSI's Sarcoma and Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia"...

I am confused. Is the Collaboration still active, and what drug is involved? Are these the same drug, and why are they identified by 2 seperate names?
