ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS


INTRODUCTION

Alkermes Clinical Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership") was formed on February 7,
1992, and is managed by Alkermes Development Corporation, II (the "General
Partner"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Alkermes, Inc. ("Alkermes"). The
Partnership was organized to fund the further development and clinical testing
of a family of molecules, designated by Alkermes as Receptor-Mediated
Permeabilizers[Trademark] ("RMPs[Trademark]"), for human pharmaceutical use in
the United States and Canada.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Revenues

The Partnership's sole source of revenue for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995 was the interest earned on the investments made with
the capital contributions received from the General Partner and the limited
partners of the Partnership (the "Limited Partners") prior to their disbursement
to Alkermes for research and development as well as other Partnership expenses.
Interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996 was $329
and $11,287 compared to $90,832 and $236,564 for the corresponding periods of
the prior year. Interest income for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1996 as compared to 1995 decreased as a result of the decrease in cash and
cash equivalents and short-term investments. The decrease in the cash and cash
equivalents and short-term investments of the Partnership are a result of the
substantial completion of the annual capital contributions by the Limited
Partners and the General Partner in 1995 and the completion of the development
funding to Alkermes during the quarter ended June 30, 1996.

         Expenses

Research and development expenses for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1996 were zero and $4,850,000 as compared to $2,698,000 and $8,284,000 for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995. The decrease in research and
development expenses was a result of the completion of the development funding
to Alkermes pursuant to the product development agreement between Alkermes and
the Partnership (the "Product Development Agreement").

General and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1996 were $8,136 and $49,815 as compared to $41,369 and $102,153
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995. The decrease was mainly
a result of a decrease in amortization of organization costs and legal fees.

There was no interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1996 as compared to zero and $98,666 for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1995. The decrease was a result of the repayment in April 1995 of
the $4,735,000 note payable to Alkermes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At September 30, 1996, the Partnership had current assets totaling $40,518,
consisting solely of cash; and current liabilities of $14,998.

The Partnership's primary source of funding and capital resources has been the
annual capital contributions by the Limited Partners and the General Partner.
The Limited Partners' capital contributions have been remitted to the
Partnership in four annual installment payments, the fourth and final payment of
which was due on April 15, 1995. During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the
Partnership received approximately $2,058,000 in cash as a result of the
purchase by Alkermes of previously defaulted Class A limited partnership units.
There will be no additional capital contributions received by the Partnership
after the quarter ended June 30, 1996.

The Partnership has used its capital resources primarily to fund the further
development and clinical testing of RMPs. Such development is being conducted
for the Partnership by Alkermes pursuant to the Product Development Agreement.
During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership completed its
development funding to Alkermes and incurred expenses totaling $4,850,000 for
reimbursable costs incurred by Alkermes. Alkermes anticipates that its clinical
testing of RMPs will continue beyond such date. Since none of the Partners of
the Partnership are obligated to make any further capital contributions to the
Partnership, Alkermes intends to fund the further development of RMPs.

The Partnership's remaining cash and equivalents will be used to pay for
administrative services for the Partnership. Alkermes is obligated, through the
General Partner, to perform administrative services for the Partnership, such as
preparing financial statements, tax returns and reports to the Limited Partners.
Alkermes intends to continue to cause the General Partner to perform such
services at its expense after the Partnership's current assets are depleted,
unless it exercises its Purchase Option and thereby acquires all limited
partnership interests in the Partnership. The activities performed by Alkermes
and the General Partner constitute all of the activities undertaken by or on
behalf of the Partnership.

After September 30, 1996, the Partnership is expected to have no material
assets, liabilities or partners' capital and will have no future liquidity or
capital resources requirements other than those funded by Alkermes.
