FDA Places Partial Hold on BioNTech's Cancer Drug Trial After Three Fatalities

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has placed a partial clinical hold on an early-stage study of BioNTech SE's experimental cancer drug, BNT326/YL202, which is being developed in partnership with MediLink Therapeutics.

The hold was documented in a 6-K filing.
