               WITHDRAWAL OF REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-3 
               (FILE NO. 33-79268)

Dear Ms. Parratt:

        On behalf of Anergen, Inc. (the "COMPANY"), we hereby withdraw the
Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 33-79268) (the
"REGISTRATION STATEMENT") initially filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on May 24, 1994. The Registration Statement is being withdrawn
pursuant to Rule 479 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, since the
Registration Statement was not declared effective and has since become stale.

        Please call me or Barry Taylor of this office at (415) 493-9300 if you
have any questions or require additional information.

                                        Very truly yours,

                                        WILSON SONSINI GOODRICH & ROSATI
