Abstract:
Pfizer Inc. won’t be able to present new data on an experimental drug designed to boost good cholesterol to the American Heart Association this week due to a violation of the organization’s disclosure guidelines, The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday. The WSJ said a release about the drug, called torcetrapib, issued by Pfizer on Oct. 30 led to the decision by the American Heart Association. Shares of Pfizer, a Dow component, closed Friday at $25.71, down 13 cents
