I spoke with Amanda Rice at CYPB this morning, asking for her best take on the FDA's actions and the possible timeline for approval of the Prosorba for RA.

Her response was basically that the panel had turned its information over to the FDA and that things were now entirely in the hands of the FDA.

As to timing, she suggested that my guess was as good as hers regarding the FDA's timeline, but noted that Immunex (Enbrel) had heard within 2-3 months following their panel's findings.

So her *guess* is that, if the same timetable exists for the Prosorba column, they would hope to hear "by the end of the year" but nobody knows for sure.

Hope that helps.
