What is an advisory committee?
Advisory committees provide independent expert advice to the FDA on broad scientific topics or on certain products to help the agency make sound decisions based on the available science. Advisory committees make non-binding recommendations to the FDA, which generally follows the recommendations but is not legally bound to do so. Please see, "Advisory Committees Give FDA Critical Advice and the Public a Voice," for more information.    


 
**Center:** Center for Drug Evaluation and Research

**Location:** All meeting participants will be heard, viewed, captioned, and recorded for this advisory committee meeting via an online teleconferencing and/or video conferencing platform.

Agenda

The meeting presentations will be heard, viewed, captioned, and recorded through an online teleconferencing platform. The Committee will discuss efficacy and safety data submitted in support of a new drug application (NDA) 214511 for pegulicianine for injection, the optical imaging drug constituent of a drug/device combination product, submitted by Lumicell, Inc. The proposed indication for pegulicianine is for use in patients with breast cancer to assist in the detection of cancerous tissue within the lumpectomy cavity following removal of the primary specimen during lumpectomy surgery.

Meeting Materials

FDA intends to make background material and the link to the live webcast available to the public no later than two (2) business days before the meeting in the Event Materials section of this web page. If FDA is unable to post the background material on its website prior to the meeting, the background material will be made publicly available on FDA’s website at the time of the advisory committee meeting. The meeting will include slide presentations with audio components to allow the presentation of materials in a manner that most closely resembles an in-person advisory committee meeting.

Public Participation Information

Interested persons may present data, information, or views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committee.
