As I remember, one of the "minor" issues wasn't so minor -- it was chemical stability (shelf life) which had not been demonstrated to the satisfaction of the FDA. In addition to proving safety and efficacy, the company must show that they can deliver a consistent quality product from a CGMP facility.

Can anyone correct my memory, or comment on Pharmacyclics' progress?

In March 1997 the FDA requested additional information concerning stability. By it's nature such a study takes time, and the delay was expected to be a minimum of 18 months. That means we should be hearing from the company soon if the compound is stable. If not maybe they will quitely let the subject die.
