The company could with some journals announce the paper as "accepted for publication" once this happens, even before any actual publication is available to release. No idea if they would do this. If they wait for publication release to announce it, the timeline will vary by journal. Some journals within just a few weeks of acceptance will get the article listed on PubMed and will make the accepted pdf manuscript (not yet typeset) available on the government public-access website (this happens with studies that have been supported by NIH funding of investigators, which could be the case here). Other journals I have dealt with are quite slow, and you have to get the article typeset at the publisher and go through proofing by the authors before they make anything available on PubMed. NEJM often wants to announce their articles in a PR so the journal mandates keeping everything secret until they are ready to announce publication in a PR. Bottom line is it could get accepted any day and we still might not hear anything publicly for a couple of months. Just no way to know what's going on behind the scenes.
