 PROFILE
ONYX Pharmaceuticals' cancer drug could turn out to be a real gem. The firm's lead drug candidate, ONYX-015, is genetically engineered to kill head and neck cancer cells resistant to such treatments as chemotherapy and radiation while leaving normal cells intact. ONYX-015 is in latter-stage clinical trials, conducted by partner Warner-Lambert, now part of Pfizer. The drug candidate is also in development to treat pancreatic, ovarian, colorectal, and lung cancers. ONYX has also partnered with Pfizer to develop enzymes that inhibit inflammatory diseases and regulate cell cycles to prevent cancer. With partner Bayer, the company is developing a kinase inhibitor that blocks tumor cell growth.
