Alseres Pharmaceuticals raises $5M from notes deal

Alseres Pharmaceuticals Inc. says that it has entered into a notes purchase agreement that allows it to borrow $5 million from investor Robert L. Gipson.

The Hopkinton-based drug company previously had entered into a $25 million notes agreement with Robert L.

Alseres started out life as Boston Life Sciences Inc., before stockholders approved the company name change to Alseres Pharmaceuticals in June 2007.

For its most recent reported year, 2006, Alseres had a loss of $26.4 million and no revenue.
