I would suggest that you email David Furst at MEDI

I spoke with Jeff Smurlick yesterday morning and he too was surprised by the statements made. When I emailed him in the afternoon to find out if he had informed Amir at OWCP, his unedited reply was as follows: "yeah I made him aware, he is not happy that's the German company said what they did but those are probably realistic timelines and my advice was keep pushing hard and doing what they do I think the end result will be a good one".
Whether the statements were true or not, I think that an official response is probably in order.
