I can understand how they need more time. Hopefully they will see the light in the coming weeks.
The negative opinion is going to happen, otherwise the company wouldn't have released the PR today. Hoping that things change before the December meeting is wishful thinking.
Only hope is that we can convince a new panel with additional data. Not impossible, albeit a long shot IMO.
The problem is we have no plan B here after a final rejection. We should have been finishing a proper trial by now...
