Over two months ago, an FDA advisory board recommended (to the FDA approval board by majority vote) not to give CEPH approval of Myotrophin. Cited was inconclusive results from a European study where the non-control group had an elevated number of deaths over the control group. Between then and now, what would've changed other than continued good response by patients using this drug? Is this sufficient to warrant NDA approval?
