J&J earning call is online at Seeking Alpha and for those curious about the Animas Vibe insulin pump coming to the US there was this comment:
And recently, our diabetes care business submitted a premarket approval application for the FDA for the Animas Vibe insulin pump and continuous glucose monitoring system. This next generation insulin pump incorporates Animas' color screen and waterproof technology and a Dexcom G4 Platinum sensor, which enables people with diabetes to make more informed decisions to help control their disease.
What I find particularly fascinating is that it took 6 months for Animas to submit after the G4 approval... when all JnJ apparently did is "fine-tune paperwork." Yup, six months' worth of paperwork fine-tuning, apparently! Still, great to see this has finally happened! Hope the FDA moves quickly!
