belegt, dass die Entscheidung über eine Zulassung zuletzt sehr knapp ausgefallen ist (siehe www.fda.gov/.../medicaldevicesadvisorycommittee/...anel/ucm395028.pdf , Seite 272 ff) Die Ergebnisse waren:
"Question 1: Is there reasonable assurance that Epi proColon is safe for use in patients who meet the criteria specified in the proposed indications?"
Ergebnis: "So on Question 1, the Panel voted 9 yes, 1 abstain that the data shows that there is reasonable assurance that Epi proColon is safe for use in patients who meet the criteria specified in the proposed indication."
---
"Question 2: Is there reasonable assurance that the Epi proColon is effective for use in patients who meet the criteria specified in the proposed indication?"
Ergebnis: "On Question 2, the Panel voted 5 yes and 5 no, and the tiebreaker from the Chair was another no, so 6 noes, that there is reasonable assurance that Epi proColon is effective for patients who meet the criteria specified in the proposed indication."
---
"Question 3: Do the benefits of EpiproColon for use in patients who meet the criteria specified in the proposed indication outweigh the risks for use in patients who meet the criteria specified in the proposed indication?"
Ergebnis: "On Question 3, the Panel voted 5 yes, 4 no, and 1 abstain that the benefits of Epi proColon outweigh the risk for use in patients who meet the criteria specified in the proposed indication."
IST ALSO OHNEHIN EINE SEHR KNAPPE ENTSCHEIDUNG, SO DASS DIE WAHRSCHEINLICHKEIT EINES POSITIVEN ENTSCHEIDES NACH DEM EINSPRUCH UNTER DER AUFLAGE EINER POST-APPROVAL-STUDIE IN MEINEN AUGEN SEHR HOCH IST.
