§3.2Summary by disposition

Table 2. Counts by disposition, with the meaning of each.

DispositionCountMeaning
Accepted4The submission is accepted and the draft is amended as proposed. The amendment is recorded in the amendment log of the document it changed and is traceable to the numbered submission.
Accepted in part2Part of the submission is accepted and part is not. The secretariat response states which part is which and on what ground the remainder was declined.
Noted, no amendment1The submission raises a point the Institute accepts but that does not require a change to the draft, most often because the draft already states it elsewhere. The location is given in the response.
Not accepted1The submission is not accepted. The secretariat response gives the reason. A submission that is not accepted remains published in full; the Institute does not remove a submission because it disagrees with it.

§3.3Resulting amendments

  1. Quantitative claims are reproduced without the method that produced them — arising from DRAFT-SELANK-MONOG/005. Every quantitative claim now carries the determination that produced it at the point of use, and figures obtained by non-comparable methods are no longer presented in the same row or sentence.
  2. Mechanistic claims for a peptide fragment are carried without evidence that the fragment acts as… — arising from DRAFT-SELANK-MONOG/004. Mechanistic claims not traceable to a primary source are removed, and those retained carry their source and a statement of whether the underlying work was conducted in vitro, in animals or in humans.
  3. Two factual descriptions of the sponsor's programme are inaccurate — arising from DRAFT-SELANK-MONOG/007. The trial status now reads as completed at a pre-specified interim analysis, with the analysis identified, and the dose is stated in the unit used in the approved labelling. The submission is identified as an industry submission on its face in accordance with…
  4. The recorded evidence gaps omit outcomes a reader would consider material — arising from DRAFT-SELANK-MONOG/006. The evidence-gap section is now derived from the anchor and decision-relevant outcomes for the indication, and any such outcome measured by no contributing trial is recorded as not measured rather than omitted.
  5. Where the compound is a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, the cardiovascular outcome… — arising from DRAFT-SELANK-MONOG/002. Cardiovascular outcomes are now an assessed outcome with their own certainty rating in every monograph for which a dedicated cardiovascular outcome trial of that compound has reported, and are recorded as not assessed elsewhere.
  6. Regulatory status is stated without naming the jurisdiction — arising from DRAFT-SELANK-MONOG/001. Every regulatory status statement now names the authority, states the date on which the status was verified, and is recorded per jurisdiction rather than as a single global assertion.
