They might be able to leverage a conditional approval with threats of a SPA lawsuit. What conditions?

The conditional approval I meant was that the FDA would pull the approval if REDUCE-IT failed, for instance.

"SPA lawsuit" is not going to happen. These guys have no recourse. Small foreign biotech? The FDA isn't the tiniest bit worried about repercussions here. They're a US government agency. There's no accountability.

The only leverage is how bad the FDA wants those REDUCE-IT results. If AMRN says, "We're stopping the trial, we can't pay for it." there's a tiny chance that would impact the FDA's viewpoint, IMO. They could care less about AMRN, fairness, or even the science on O3's, really. CYA is what this is all about.
