against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,

unenforceable.&#160; In the event that a

claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by

the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or

controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding)

is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with

the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of

its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a

court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by

it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be

governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</font></p>

Stock, issuable pursuant to that certain Rights Agreement between the

Registrant and The First National Bank of Boston, as Rights Agent, dated as of

August 14, 1995, as amended by the First Amendment to Rights Agreement by and

among the Registrant, Fleet National Bank (f/k/a The First National Bank of

Boston), as Rights Agent, and EquiServe Trust Company, N.A., dated as of

October 8, 2001.  The value attributable

to the Rights, if any, is reflected in the market price of the Common Stock.

This Registration Statement shall also cover any

additional shares of Common Stock which may become issuable under the 1993 Plan

or the 2002 Plan being registered pursuant to this Registration Statement by

reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or any other

similar transaction effected without the receipt of consideration which results

in an increase in the number of the Registrant's outstanding shares of Common Stock.

Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee pursuant

to Rules 457(c) and (h) under the Securities Act on the basis of the average of

the high and low sale prices for a share of Common Stock of the Registrant as

reported on the Nasdaq National Market on May 24, 2002.

Shares to be offered or sold under the SangStat Medical Corporation 2002 Stock

Option Plan (the "2002 Plan") include 2,150,000 shares which have not been

shares which were previously registered for offer or sale under the SangStat

Medical Corporation 1993 Stock Option Plan (the "1993 Plan"), and which now may

be offered or sold under the 2002 Plan (the "Carried Forward Shares").  The 1993 Plan terminated on May 14, 2002

The Carried Forward Shares are shares subject to outstanding awards

under the 1993 Plan, and shares reserved but not issued under the 1993 Plan,

immediately prior to the termination of the 1993 Plan.  Because the Carried Forward Shares were

registered on Forms S-8 filed on June 25, 2001 (file no. 333-63784), January

12, 2000 (file no. 333-94555), September 14, 1998 (file no. 333-63345) and May

20, 1998 (file no. 333-53181), the filing fee is not required with respect to

the Carried Forward Shares, pursuant to Interpretation 89 under Section G of

the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations of the Division of

Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (July 1997) and

Instruction E to the General Instructions to Form S-8.
This Registration Statement shall become effective upon filing in

Item 4.            Description of Securities
Not

applicable.
Item 5.            Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
Not

applicable.
Item 6.            Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 145

of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to award, or a corporation's

board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors and officers in terms

sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances

for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under

the Securities Act.  The Company's

Certificate of Incorporation and

Bylaws provide for indemnification of its directors, officers, employees and

other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General

Corporation Law.  In addition, the

Company has entered into Indemnification Agreements with its directors and

officers.  The Company also has

purchased and maintained insurance for its officers, directors, employees or

agents against liabilities that an officer, a director, an employee or an agent

may incur in his or her capacity as such.
Item 7.            Exemption From Registration Claimed
Not

applicable.
Item 8.            Exhibits
See

Index to Exhibits.
Item 9.            Undertakings
A.            The undersigned Registrant hereby

undertakes:
(1)           to file, during any period in which

offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration

statement:
(i)            to include any prospectus required

by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii)           to reflect in the prospectus any

facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement

(or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in

the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in

the registration statement.  Notwithstanding

the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the

total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was

registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum

offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC

pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price

represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering

price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective

registration statement;
(iii)          to include any material information

with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the

registration statement or any material change to such information in the

registration statement.
Provided
,
however
,

that paragraphs (A)(1)(i) and (A)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information

required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is

contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the

Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are

incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2)           That, for the purpose of determining

any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment

shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities

offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be

deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(3)           To remove from registration by means

of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which

remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
B.            The Registrant hereby undertakes

that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each

filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section

15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee

benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act)

that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed

to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,

and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the

initial
bona

fide
offering thereof.
C.            Insofar as indemnification for

liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to the

Registrant's directors, officers and controlling persons under the

indemnification provisions summarized in Item 6 or otherwise, the Registrant

has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is

against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,

unenforceable.  In the event that a

claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by

the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or

controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding)

is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with

the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of

its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a

court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by

it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be

governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
