that impact a previously announced Advisory Committee meeting cannot

advisory committee meeting link, or call the advisory committee 
information line to learn about possible modifications before coming to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Agenda: On September 27, 2018, the Committee will discuss, make 
recommendations, and vote on the premarket approval application 
sponsored by Sequent Medical, Inc. for the Woven Endobridge (WEB) 
Aneurysm Embolization System, which is intended to treat wide-neck 
intracranial aneurysms arising or located at a vessel bifurcation. The 
WEB device is being evaluated in the WEB Intrasaccular Therapy Study 
(WEB-IT): a multicenter, prospective, non-randomized investigation. The 
Committee will be asked to review the clinical data from the WEB-IT 
study to help the Agency assess the safety and effectiveness of the 
device for the proposed indications for use.
    FDA intends to make background material available to the public no 
later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post 
the background material on its website prior to the meeting, the 
background material will be made publicly available at the location of 
the advisory committee meeting, and the background material will be 
posted on FDA's website after the meeting. Background material is 
available at https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/default.htm. Scroll down to the appropriate Advisory Committee meeting 
link.
    Procedure: Interested persons may present data, information, or 
views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committee. 
Written submissions may be made to the contact person on or before 
September 20, 2018. Oral presentations from the public will be 
scheduled between approximately 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. Those individuals 
interested in making formal oral presentations should notify the 
contact person and submit a brief statement of the general nature of 
the evidence or arguments they wish to present, the names and addresses 
of proposed participants, and an indication of the approximate time 
requested to make their presentation on or before September 12, 2018. 
Time allotted for each presentation may be limited. If the number of 
registrants requesting to speak is greater than can be reasonably 
accommodated during the scheduled open public hearing session, FDA may 
conduct a lottery to determine the speakers for the scheduled open 
public hearing session. The contact person will notify interested 
persons regarding their request to speak by September 13, 2018.
