Ice,

You look correct to me - this MEDX trial does indeed seem to be a combo of unapproved products. Personally I believe this is necessary in some situations, so I'm pleased the FDA let them do it.

It still remains to be seen at approval time if the FDA will start grumbling about what effect each component is having and demanding additional individual trials of each component.
