Some thoughts
1) The meeting was cancelled "to allow time for the resolution of several outstanding issues"
If the issues were un-resolvable, we would be discussing a rejection letter and not a cancelled meeting
2) The agency intends to continue evaluating the NDA - Good sign
3) The agency may schedule an advisory committee meeting in the future. - Good sign
4) The agency has not communicated all the outstanding issues to Lux - of course not. That is the purpose of the action letter.
5) The action letter is expected approx Aug 3, 2010 - 6 weeks to wait.
Bottom line: Several resolvable issues need to be taken care of. The action letter will outline what these issues are. The FDA is keenly aware that 1000s of people are needlessly going blind every month this application is delayed. For this reason, the agency may issue a letter of approval, despite the pending issues.

bromley I think 'as needed" is a negative thing - they are saying the application may just be rejected in which case there will be no need for a meeting - the only positive i am seeing is that at this point at least they are leaving open the possibility of calling a meeting. So there is hope but it is hard not to be concerned.
