Impax Laboratories on Monday selected former Allergan chairman Paul Bisaro as its next CEO, sending shares in the drugmaker up as much as 38.7 percent. Impax chairman Robert Burr stated "we are pleased to have [Bisaro], a highly respected and accomplished leader, with a strong track record of delivering superior shareholder returns and financial performance, join Impax as our new CEO."
