Agenda: During the morning session, the committee will discuss new drug application (NDA) 203009, lixivaptan, submitted by Cardiokine Biopharma, LLC, for the proposed indication of the treatment of symptomatic hypervolemic and euvolemic hyponatremia associated with heart failure and syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH), respectively.
