10 May 2018 The company have now advised that have withdrawn their marketing authorisation application from the European Medicines Authority (EMA) for this indication at this time. Therefore, this appraisal will remain suspended. As this appraisal has been referred to NICE we will continue to monitor any development and will update interested parties if the situation changes. For more information, please see the EMA website: http://www.ema.europa.eu/docs/en_GB/document_library/Medicine_QA/2018/02/WC500244301.pdf
03 May 2017 Suspended. This appraisal has formally started now, in line with the anticipated regulatory timelines. However, the Gilead has informed us that they will not provide an evidence submission for this appraisal. NICE will therefore suspend this appraisal with immediate effect.
