Item 8.01 Other Events.

On January 12, 2007, Pro-Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the resale by the selling security holders named in the Registration Statement of shares of the Company’s Common Stock that are issuable upon conversion or redemption of, or as interest on, its 7% Convertible Debentures and upon exercise of related common stock purchase warrants that the Company issued and sold on February 14, 2006. The Company intends to file Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement in which it reduces the number of shares to be registered to approximately one-third of the number of shares of its Common Stock that were in the public “float,” or approximately 6 million shares, just prior to the transaction in which the Debentures and warrants were sold. As a result of a regulatory requirement that registration statements must include current financial information, the Company expects to file the Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 as soon as possible after it has filed its annual report on Form 10-K, due to be filed by March 31, 2007, which will include the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2006.
