That's not what I said at all. Quite to the contrary, I believe FDA's numbers which are quite consistent with FDA's original review that is public info. If you had read the review, you would have found the reviewers' explanations how they got all data. They were concerned about hypertension which was not reported fully by trial investigators, but showed up in vital signs measurement data throughout trial. They highlighted that other ABL-BCR inhibitors didn't have similar hypertension profile as ponatinib whose profile was consistent with other VEGF inhibitors.

I have posted a lot on this safety issue at iHUB ever since it was approved:

By the way, just remember ARIA never disputed FDA reviewers' numbers at all.
