    The potential health risk applies only to patients receiving Fulvestrant, which may lead to elevated estradiol levels. In the worst case scenario, falsely elevated estradiol results may lead to an incorrect assessment of the menopausal status and inadequate treatment. Tests performed as a research study showed the following results as shown below: Population that the estradiol concentration represents: Postmenopausal women Outcome of estradiol in the sample without dilution pg / mL (pmol / L): 29.14 * (106, 94) Estradiol result in the supplemented sample pg / mL (pmol / L): 85.80 (314.89)% Recovery (Interference): 294.44% Cross Reactivity: 0.23 - A sample was supplemented with 25,100 pg / Fulvestrant (25.100 pg / mL is a representative maximum concentration of Fulvestrant) -% Recovery = (result of the supplemented sample / result of the sample without dilution) X 100. -% Cross Reactivity = ((result of sample supplemented in pg / mL - result of sample without dilution in pg / mL) / Fulvestrant concentration supplemented in pg / mL) X 100. * Sample of human serum not supplemented.

    “We are in constant communication with regulatory agencies and competent authorities worldwide which allows us to implement global recalls or in-country communication quickly and effectively,” Abbott, which now owns St. Jude Medical told ICIJ in a statement. In addition to sending global notices to physicians worldwide, we also make sure that product advisories are available online and classification of product recalls and product advisories are determined by global regulatory bodies which can impact the timing in any given country. MD companies follow varying regulations in different countries. In come countries software is not regulated so a recall in one country related to software would not be classified as a recall or field action in another. In addition, review cycles within the regulatory process can be different in each country which can impact communication and recall timing.
