     This Amendment to the Statement on Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D")
with respect to the Common Stock of Cell Genesys, Inc. (the "Issuer"), of
Hoechst Marion Roussel, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("HMRI"), and Hoechst
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("HCorp"), is filed to report the
purchase of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (the "Shares")
and the issuance to HMRI of a warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase up to an
additional 750,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Warrant Shares") for $13.00
per share.  Except as set forth in this Amendment No. 1, the information
set forth in the Schedule 13D remains unchanged.  

ITEM 3.   SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
- -------   --------------------------------------------------

     Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is amended to read as follows:  

     On November 27, 1995, upon the expiration of the Waiting Period under
the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act (the "HSR Waiting
Period"), for an aggregate price of $20,000,000, HMRI purchased from the
Issuer 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer (the "Shares") and a
warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase up to an additional 750,000 shares of
Common Stock (the "Warrant Shares") for $13.00 per share was issued.  The
source of funds for the purchase price of $20,000,000 was the working
capital of HMRI.  None of the funds were borrowed or otherwise obtained for
the purpose of acquiring the Shares.  The source of funds for the purchase
price of $9,750,000 for the Warrant Shares is expected to be the working
capital of HMRI and none of such funds are expected to be borrowed or
otherwise obtained for the purpose of acquiring the Warrant Shares.  
     
ITEM 4.   PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
- -------   -----------------------

     Item 4 of this Schedule 13D is amended by adding the following
paragraph:

     The HRS Waiting Period expired and the transactions described herein
were consummated on November 27, 1995.  

ITEM 5.   INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
- -------   -------------------------------------

     Paragraph (a) of Item 5 of this Schedule 13D is amended to read as
follows.  

     (a)  HMRI beneficially owns 2,000,000 Shares of the Issuer's Common
Stock representing approximately 12.6% (and 750,000 Warrant Shares together
representing approximately 16.5%) of the Issuer's Common Stock outstanding
at September 30, 1995 on a fully-diluted basis.  The Warrant was issued to
HMRI concurrently with the Shares, and HMRI has the right to acquire the
Warrant Shares upon payment of the warrant exercise price.  Except as may
be set forth in any subsequent amendment to the Schedule, neither Hoechst
AG nor HCorp, nor any executive officer or director of Hoechst AG, HMRI, or
HCorp, beneficially owns any of the Shares or any other shares of Common
Stock other than through their beneficial ownership, if any, of stock of
Hoechst AG, HCorp, or HMRI.  HMRI is a wholly-owned subsidiary of HCorp,
which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hoechst AG.  HCorp disclaims
beneficial ownership of securities owned directly by HMRI.
