BioMimetic submitted the PMA in February, and the FDA requested 12 month safety data for at least 85 percent of the Augment North American pivotal study patients in addition to the requirements previously set forth and agreed upon in the Investigational Device Exemption. In May, BioMimetic submitted 12 month data for 100 percent of the study’s patients. The data demonstrates no serious adverse events or any other safety concerns related to the new product, according to the release.
Now that the FDA has officially accepted the application, BioMimetic anticipates receiving additional feedback from the FDA in the third quarter, with an advisory panel review late this year or early 2011.
