The company says the move is part of its plan to develop its marketing and sales team and grow its research organization. The new space will also include new laboratories for discovery and pre-clinical research.

"The new facility gives us additional space to build the sales and marketing capacity required to support the launch of our nearest term product under development, BiDil, when it is approved for marketing," says NitroMed's president and CEO, Michael D. Loberg, Ph.D.
