via Last week, Bristol Myers Squibb marched out long-term data for its heart drug mavacamten ahead of what execs had hoped would be a positive FDA decision in January. But regulators are saying they need a bit more time to think.

The FDA has extended mavacamten’s PDUFA date three months, from Jan. 28 to April 28, Bristol Myers announced on Friday. The news came just a few days after independent drug pricing watchdog ICER raised concerns about the candidate’s long-term safety in its final evidence report.
