PROXY STATEMENT

FOR 2008 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

We intend to mail this Proxy Statement and the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting on or about April 21, 2008, to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

PURPOSE OF MEETING

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will consider and act upon proposals (1) to elect nine directors to one-year terms, (2) to consider a management proposal to amend our articles of incorporation increasing the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 200,000,000, and (3) to consider such other business as may properly come before the meeting.

The Board of Directors knows of no other business to be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. Each proposal is described in more detail in this Proxy Statement.

We urge you to sign the enclosed Proxy Card and return it promptly in the return envelope by following the instructions on the proxy card (both are enclosed with these materials). Proxies will be voted as directed. Any Proxy Card returned without directions given will be voted “FOR” (i) the election of directors, (ii) the increase in the number of authorized shares of our common stock, and (iv) as to any other business that may come before the Annual Meeting, in accordance with the judgment of the person or persons named in the proxy.

Voting Securities

Stockholders of record at the close of business on April 11, 2008 will be entitled to notice of the Annual Meeting and to vote at the meeting. Our voting stock is our common stock of which 47,864,792 shares were issued and outstanding on April 11, 2008, and our Series A 12% Convertible Preferred Stock (which votes in accordance with the formula set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of the Series A 12% Convertible Preferred Stock), of which 1,742,500 shares were issued and outstanding as of April 11, 2008. The shares of Series A 12% Convertible Preferred Stock vote with the shares of our common stock as a single class. Neither the common stock nor the Series A 12% Convertible Preferred Stock is entitled to cumulative voting.

Establishing a Quorum and Votes Required

The representation in person or by proxy of at least one third of the shares of capital stock entitled to vote is necessary to establish a quorum for the transaction of business. Shares which abstain from voting as to a particular matter, and shares held in “street name” by brokers or nominees who indicate on their proxies that they do not have discretionary authority to vote as to a particular matter (“broker non-votes”), will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting, but will not be considered as voting on such matters. Accordingly, neither abstentions nor broker non-votes will have any effect with respect to the election of directors or the ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm, each of which requires an affirmative vote of a majority of the voting shares present or represented by proxy and voting on the matter, or the proposal to increase the number of our authorized shares of common stock, which requires an affirmative vote of a majority of the voting shares outstanding.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth, as of April 11, 2008, certain information concerning the beneficial ownership of each class of our voting securities by (i) each person known by us to own beneficially five per cent (5%) or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock or our Series A 12% Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”), (ii) each of our directors and named executive officers, and (iii) all executive officers and directors as a group.

The number of shares beneficially owned by each 5% stockholder, director or executive officer is determined under rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under those rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares to which the individual or entity has sole or shared voting power or investment power and also any shares that the individual or entity has the right to acquire within 60 days after April 11, 2008 through the exercise of any stock option, warrant or other right, or conversion of any security. Unless otherwise indicated, each person or entity has sole investment and voting power (or shares such power with his or her spouse) with respect to the shares set forth in the following table. The inclusion in the table below of any shares deemed beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership of those shares.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board of Directors Meetings and Committees of the Board

During the year ended December 31, 2007, our Board of Directors held 18 meetings. During 2007, the Board had three standing committees: the Compensation Committee, the Audit Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Our Board of Directors has determined that, other than Dr. Platt and Dr. Zucconi, neither of whom serves on a standing committee, all of the directors are “independent” within the meaning of American Stock Exchange listing standards. As required by the stock exchange rules, we held at least one meeting of the Board attended only by the independent (non-management) directors. During 2007, one director, James Gourzis, attended fewer than 75% of the combined total number of meetings of the Board. Each of the Compensation Committee, Audit Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has a charter, a copy of which is available in the “About the Company” section of our website atwww.pro-pharmaceuticals.com.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee, whose members are Mildred Christian (chair) and Henry Esber, met three times during 2007. The Committee is responsible for reviewing and recommending compensation policies and programs, management and corporate goals, as well as salary and benefit levels for our executive officers and other significant employees. Its specific responsibilities include supervising and overseeing the administration of our incentive compensation and stock programs and, as such, the Committee is responsible for administration of grants and awards to directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors under Pro-Pharmaceuticals’ 2001 Stock Incentive Plan and the 2003 Non-employee Director Stock Incentive Plan.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee, whose members are Steven Prelack (chair), Dale Conaway and Jerald Rome, met seven times during 2007. The Audit Committee is responsible for oversight of the quality and integrity of the accounting, auditing and reporting practices of Pro-Pharmaceuticals. More specifically, it assists the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities relating to (i) the quality and integrity of our financial statements, reports and related information provided to stockholders, regulators and others, (ii) our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (iii) the qualifications, independence and performance of our independent registered public accounting firm, (iv) the internal control over financial reporting that management and the Board have established, and (v) the audit, accounting and financial reporting processes generally. The Committee is also responsible for review and approval of related-party transactions. The Board has determined that Mr. Prelack is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of SEC rules.

7

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, whose members are Jerald Rome (chair), Dale Conaway and Mildred Christian, met five times during 2007. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board, and to recommend to the Board, candidates for election or re-election as directors and for reviewing our governance policies in light of the corporate governance rules of the American Stock Exchange and the SEC. Under its charter, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is required to establish and recommend criteria for service as a director, including matters relating to professional skills and experience, board composition, potential conflicts of interest and manner of consideration of individuals proposed by management or stockholders for nomination. The Committee believes candidates for the Board should have the ability to exercise objectivity and independence in making informed business decisions; extensive knowledge, experience and judgment; the highest integrity; loyalty to the interests of Pro-Pharmaceuticals and its stockholders; a willingness to devote the extensive time necessary to fulfill a director’s duties; the ability to contribute to the diversity of perspectives present in board deliberations, and an appreciation of the role of the corporation in society. The Committee will consider candidates meeting these criteria who are suggested by directors, management, stockholders and other advisers hired to identify and evaluate qualified candidates.

The Committee has adopted a policy for stockholders to submit recommendations for director candidates. A stockholder desiring to make a recommendation may do so in writing by letter to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee stating the reasons for the recommendation and how the candidate may meet the Committee’s director selection criteria. The letter may be confidential and should be addressed to the Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, c/o Anthony D. Squeglia, Chief Financial Officer, Pro-Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 7 Wells Avenue, Newton, Massachusetts 02459. The Committee will evaluate stockholder-recommended candidates in the same manner as candidates recommended by other persons.

PROPOSAL NO. 2

TO APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO THE PRO-PHARMACEUTICALS

ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION INCREASING THE NUMBER OF OUR

AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK FROM 100,000,000 TO 200,000,000

Our Board of Directors has approved and has recommended that our stockholders approve, an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation providing for an increase in the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 100,000,000 to 200,000,000. This amendment is attached as an Appendix to this proxy statement.

As of April 11, 2008:

• there were 47,864,792 shares of our common stock outstanding,

• there were 6,000,000 shares of our common stock reserved for future issuance under our stock incentive plans and outstanding options,

• there were 1,742,500 shares of our common stock reserved for future issuance upon the conversion of outstanding shares of our Series A 12% Convertible Preferred Stock, and

• there were 28,762,354 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding warrants.

Accordingly as of April 11, 2008, there were an aggregate of 82,047,500 shares outstanding or reserved for issuance.

The additional 100,000,000 authorized shares of common stock would be available for issuance in the future for corporate purposes, such as financings, acquisitions, stock splits, stock dividends and management incentive and employee benefit plans, as our Board of Directors may deem advisable, without the necessity of further stockholder action.

We do not have any present plan, arrangement or understanding to issue any of the additional shares of common stock that will become available as a result of this amendment to our Articles of Incorporation.

The issuance of additional shares of our common stock would have the effect of diluting our current stockholders and could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, control of us. We are not aware of any attempts on the part of a third party to effect a change of control of us and the amendment has been proposed for the reasons stated above and not for any possible anti-takeover effects it may have.

If approved by the stockholders, the proposed amendment to our Articles of Incorporation will become effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. Although our Board of Directors intends to file the Certificate of Amendment as soon as practicable after the shareholder meeting, if, in the judgment of our Board of Directors, any circumstances exist that would make consummation of the proposed amendment inadvisable, then, in accordance with Nevada law, and notwithstanding approval of the proposed amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation by the stockholders, our Board of Directors may abandon the proposed amendment, either before or after approval and authorization thereof by the stockholders, at any time prior to the effectiveness of the filing of the Certificate of Amendment.

The Board of Directors recommends you vote FOR the proposal to approve an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation providing for an increase in the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 100,000,000 to 200,000,000.

CHANGE OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

On April 10, 2008, based on the decision of the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, we dismissed Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm and engaged Vitale Caturano & Company, Ltd. to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008.

The reports of Deloitte & Touche LLP on our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and through the date of dismissal, there were no disagreements with Deloitte & Touche LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Deloitte & Touche LLP, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their report on our consolidated financial statements for such years; and there were no reportable events, as listed in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and through the date of the Audit Committee’s decision, we did not consult Vitale Caturano & Company, Ltd. with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our consolidated financial statements, or any other matter or reportable events listed in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.

We do not expect a representative of Deloitte & Touche LLP or Vitale Caturano & Company Ltd. to be present at the 2008 Annual Meeting.

FEES PAID TO DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP

	Fiscal Year 2007		Fiscal Year 2006
Audit Fees(1)	$	522,494	$	350,068
Audit-Related Fees(2)		42,795		26,500
Tax Fees(3)		18,265		15,740
Subtotal		583,554		392,308
All Other Fees(4)		—		—
Total Fees	$	583,554	$	392,308

(1) Audit Fees.    These are fees for professional services for the audit of our annual financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, review of financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, the restatement of financial statements for the periods ended September 30, 2006 and June 30, 2006 filed on Form 10-Q/A and services that are normally in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for such fiscal year.

(2) Audit-Related Fees.    These are fees for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements, including financial disclosures made in our equity finance documentation and registration statements filed with the SEC that incorporate financial statements and the auditors’ report thereon and reviewed with our Audit Committee on financial accounting/reporting standards.

(3) Tax Fees.    These are fees for professional services with respect to tax compliance, in particular, preparation of our corporate tax returns.

14

(4) All Other Fees.    These are fees for all other products and services provided or performed which do not fall within one or more of the above categories.

The Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-core audit services to Pro-Pharmaceuticals by Deloitte & Touche LLP is compatible with maintaining independence.

Pre-Approval Policy and Procedures

The Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures which set forth the manner in which the Committee will review and approve all services to be provided by the independent auditor before the auditor is retained to provide such services. The policy requires Audit Committee pre-approval of the terms and fees of the annual audit services engagement, as well as any changes in terms and fees resulting from changes in audit scope or other items. The Audit Committee also pre-approves, on an annual basis, other audit services, and audit-related and tax services set forth in the policy, subject to estimated fee levels, on a project basis and aggregate annual basis, which have been pre-approved by the Committee.

All other services performed by the auditor that are not prohibited non-audit services under SEC or other regulatory authority rules must be separately pre-approved by the Audit Committee. Amounts in excess of pre-approved limits for audit services, audit-related services and tax services require separate pre-approval of the Audit Committee.

The Chief Financial Officer reports quarterly to the Audit Committee on the status of pre-approved services, including projected fees. All of the services reflected in the above table were approved by the Audit Committee.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee is responsible for providing independent, objective oversight of Pro-Pharmaceuticals’ accounting functions and internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed audited financial statements for Pro-Pharmaceuticals with management. The Audit Committee also has discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP the matters required to be discussed by the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61,Communication With Audit Committees, As Amended, which includes, among other items, matters related to the conduct of the annual audit of our company’s financial statements. The Audit Committee has also received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from Deloitte & Touche LLP required by the securities acts administered by the Securities and Exchange Commission, concerning their independence, as required under applicable independence standards for auditors of public companies, and has discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP its independence from Pro-Pharmaceuticals.

Based upon the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the audited financial statements of Pro-Pharmaceuticals for the 2007 fiscal year be included in the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Our Audit Committee Charter requires that members of the Audit Committee, all of whom are independent directors, conduct an appropriate review of, and be responsible for the oversight of, all related party transactions on an ongoing basis. There were no related party transactions in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

OTHER BUSINESS

Management knows of no other matters that may be properly presented at the Annual Meeting.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP

REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of our common stock, to file reports of ownership and changes of ownership of such securities with the SEC. Based on a review of our records, we believe a Form 3 was filed late with respect to Mr. Neill.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR 2009 ANNUAL MEETING

Under SEC rules, if a stockholder wants us to include a proposal in our Proxy Statement and form of proxy for presentation at our 2009 annual meeting of stockholders, the proposal must be received by us, attention: Anthony D. Squeglia, Chief Financial Officer, at our principal executive offices by December 21, 2008. Also in accordance with SEC guidelines, if a stockholder notifies us of that stockholder’s intent to present a proposal at our 2009 annual meeting of stockholders after March 5, 2009, we may, acting through the persons named as proxies in the proxy materials for that meeting, exercise discretionary voting authority with respect to the proposal without including information about the proposal in our proxy materials. However, in either case, if the date of the 2009 annual meeting is changed by more than 30 days from the date of the 2008 meeting, then the deadline would be a reasonable time before we begin to print and mail our proxy materials.

DELIVERY OF VOTING MATERIALS

To reduce the expenses of delivering duplicate voting materials to our stockholders who may have more than one Pro-Pharmaceuticals stock account, we are taking advantage of “house-holding” rules that permit us to deliver only one set of the Proxy Statement and our 2007 Annual Report to stockholders who share an address unless otherwise requested. If you hold your shares through a broker, you may have consented to reducing the number of copies of materials delivered to your address. If you wish to revoke a consent previously provided to your broker, you must contact the broker to do so. In any event, if you share an address with another stockholder and have received only one set of voting materials, you may write or call us to request a separate copy of these materials at no cost to you. For future annual meetings, you may request separate voting materials, or request that we send only one set of voting materials to you if you are receiving multiple copies, by either: (i) telephoning us at (617) 559-0033; (ii) sending a letter to us at 7 Wells Avenue, Newton, Massachusetts 02459, Attention: Chief Financial Officer; or (iii) sending an e-mail to us at squeglia@pro-pharmaceuticals.com. If you hold your shares through a broker, you can request a single copy of materials for future meetings by contacting the broker.
