Matthew Herper says he is aware of what is going on, really?? please educate us

The analysts looked at product-specific decisions made by advisory committees from 2007 through 2010, a total of 120 votes. The FDA followed its committees’ advice 74% of the time.

Why did "Matthew Herper" write this POS and evaluate advisory committee votes from 2007 to 2010 and not prior to 2007?


Why did he throw VVUS and ARNA in there and not provide more in depth details on Provenge/Dendreon?


We need to stop these SO CALLED journalists write whatever they'd like to write.


DO YOU REALLY SEE VALUE IN THIS ARTICLE?

A comment to this article

Not very much informed on what’s going on huh? About the mob of Arena investors who have presented the data back to the FDA citing the bias from the lead reviewer on the Arena drug Lorq. and his presentation that used false methods and misleading statements to trick a panel of experts in fields that were not related to the drug and the tests conducted in the clinical trials. The Dr. Coleman of the FDA did this injustice for some personal reason only he knows. I speculate it was for monetary gain. Wouldn’t surprise me a bit. Temptation by regulators committing crimes of authority is so commonplace in gov’t settings I also think gov’t is the birthplace of almost all corruptions carried out.

and his response

I’m pretty aware of what’s going on. Which is why this seemed important.
