information line to learn about possible modifications before coming to
the meeting.

of cardiovascular outcomes trials to support approval of products in
the class for the proposed indication of opioid-induced constipation in
patients taking opioids for chronic pain.
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 Web site prior to the meeting, the
