Additional sites should be identified for future DSI inspections. If data provided by study 3014 cannot be used to support safety of Ketek, the Division might be able to rely on post-marketing data from those countries where Ketek has already been approved.” “Issues of data integrity with Study 3014 are of concern and should be resolved before an approval action (if warranted) can be taken.
