(Bloomberg) -- Bayer AG, Germany's biggest drugmaker, and U.S. partner Onyx Pharmaceuticals Inc. stopped a late-stage test of their Nexavar cancer drug in lung tumors because of a higher death rate among some of the patients.
An independent committee that monitors trials advised the companies that the treatment wouldn't meet the main goal of the test, Leverkusen-based Bayer said today in a statement on PRNewswire.
