Onyx Pharmaceutical's (ONXX) success may pave the way for competition

Onyx Pharmaceutical (ONXX) is enjoying the rewards of its potential blockbuster, Nexavar. On Monday, November 19th, FDA approved Nexavar, already approved for Kidney Cancer, for treatment of liver cancer. The product did so well in clinical trials that the company and its partner Bayer had to halt the trials for ethical reasons to give Nexavar to the control group as well.


Onyx's stock has been doing tremendously well. In 2007, it has raised more than 500% from about $10 to its current price of $53, but off of its 52 week high of $61.
