         Item 5.     Other Events.

     On August 14, 2002,  Cytogen  Corporation  (the  "Company")  issued a press
release  reporting  that  it  was  notified  by the  Nasdaq  Stock  Market  Inc.
("Nasdaq")  regarding the Company's  non-compliance with the minimum closing bid
price requirement  relating to Cytogen Common Stock. The Company has 90 calendar
days or until November 12, 2002 to regain  compliance with the minimum bid price
requirement of $1.00 per share.

     There can be no  assurance  that the Company  will be able to maintain  the
listing of its Common Stock on Nasdaq  National  Market.  Such  delisting of its
Common Stock could make it difficult for the Company to obtain future  financing
and materially adversely affect the trading in and price of the Common Stock.

         Item 7.     Financial Statements, Pro Forma Financial Information
and Exhibits.

         (c) Exhibits.
