For the second time in a week, the Food and Drug Administration lifted a hold on three early-stage clinical trials of an experimental cancer-fighting drug by OncoMed Pharmaceuticals Inc. The studies are important for Redwood City-based OncoMed because partner Bayer HealthCare has the option under a 2010 deal to an exclusive license of the drugs after the trials are completed. Enrollment in both programs, halted in June , is expected to be under way again soon, OncoMed Chairman and CEO Paul Hastings said late Thursday afternoon.
