Item 5.    Other Events.

     As previously reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by
BioTransplant Incorporated (the "Registrant") with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") on February 28, 2003, the Registrant and its wholly-owned
subsidiary Eligix, Inc. filed on February 27, 2003 voluntary petitions for
reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the
"Bankruptcy Code"). The filings were made in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in
Boston, Massachusetts and are being administered under the docket for
BioTransplant Incorporated and Eligix, Inc., Case Nos. 03-11585-CJK and
03-11584-CJK, respectively. The Registrant and Eligix, Inc. (collectively, the
"Debtors") continue to administer their business and financial affairs as
debtors in possession under the Bankruptcy Code.

     Under applicable bankruptcy law, the Registrant is required to file
periodically with the United States Trustee various materials, including
certain financial information on an unconsolidated basis. This information
includes statements, schedules and monthly operating reports in forms
prescribed by federal bankruptcy law and the United States' Trustee's Office
Region 1 Operating Guidelines and Reporting Requirements for Chapter 11 Cases
(the "Guidelines"). Accordingly, the Debtors filed with the United States
Trustee their monthly operating reports and accompanying attachments for the
period from April 1, 2003 through April 30, 2003 on June 11, 2003 and for the
period from May 1, 2003 through May 31, 2003 on June 18, 2003. Such reports
are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and 99.2, respectively.

     The Registrant cautions that the monthly operating reports and accompanying
attachments have been prepared for filing with the United States Trustee in
accordance with the requirements of federal bankruptcy law and the Guidelines.
These materials are unaudited and are prepared in a format and for periods
different from that used in the Registrant's consolidated financial statements
filed with the SEC under the federal securities laws. Accordingly, the substance
and format of these materials do not allow for meaningful comparison with the
Registrant's regular publicly-disclosed consolidated financial statements.

     The Registrant further cautions that the financial information included in
the monthly operating reports has been prepared by management of the Debtors
without audit or review by independent accountants and does not include all
footnotes and financial presentations normally required under generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States. Moreover, the footnotes to the
monthly operating reports contain discussion of possible year-end 2002
adjustments, including potential write-offs of property, plant and equipment,
intangible assets and goodwill and the recognition of previously-deferred
revenue, that have not been reflected in the financial statements that accompany
the monthly operating reports. As such, the information in the monthly operating
reports is not indicative of the Registrant's financial condition and operating
results for the periods that would be reflected in the Registrant's financial
statements in reports filed with the SEC under federal securities laws.

     Furthermore, the information set forth in the monthly operating reports
should not be viewed as indicative of future results and should not be used for
investment purposes.
