CED Member Tranzyme Pharma (Nasdaq:TZYM) today announced that David S. Moore has been named as Chief Business Officer.

"Dave has provided meaningful contributions and leadership since joining Tranzyme," said Vipin Garg, Ph.D.,  president and CEO, in a statement on Tuesday. "I look forward to working with him in his new role as we continue to advance the Company," said Garg. 

Mr. Moore joined Tranzyme in August 2011 from Johnson & Johnson as Vice President, Commercial Operations and his responsibilities were increased in January 2012 to include the oversight of Business Development.
