quarter 2008, Onyx reported revenue from collaboration agreement of $194.3 million and $49.7 million, respectively, compared to $90.4 million and $26.1 million for the same periods in 2007. The increase in revenue from collaboration agreement between periods is due to an increase in Nexavar revenue recognized by Bayer and higher royalty revenue, partially offset by an increase in commercial expenses related to Nexavar.
