Item 7.01.    Regulation FD Disclosure
 
In a press release issued on September 10, 2009 and attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, MAP Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "Company") announced plans to present the analysis of data from the efficacy portion of the first Phase 3 trial of its LEVADEX orally inhaled migraine therapy, currently in development, on Saturday, September 12, 2009 at the 14th Congress of the International Headache Society. The Company will also host a webcast on Monday, September 14, 2009 at 7:15 a.m. ET to review the data presented at the 14th Congress of the International Headache Society. The webcast will be accessible in the Investor Relations section of the Company's website at www.mappharma.com.
The information in this Item only, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, is furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of this Form 8-K. Consequently, it is not deemed "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section.

Item 8.01.    Other Events
 
In a press release issued on September 10, 2009, the Company announced plans to present the analysis of data from the efficacy portion of the first Phase 3 trial of its LEVADEX orally inhaled migraine therapy, currently in development, on Saturday, September 12, 2009 at the 14th Congress of the International Headache Society. Post-hoc analysis of data from this Phase 3 trial shows the potential of LEVADEX to be effective in treating acute migraine as well as a broad spectrum of migraine, including migraine subpopulations that are often resistant to current therapies such as triptans, migraine with moderate and severe pain, migraine with nausea and vomiting and migraine with and without aura. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
