Meet Robert Califf. He was recently appointed as Deputy Commissioner for Medical Products and Tobacco at the FDA, by the Obama administration. This is the same guy who worked at the Duke Institute for Clinical Research, where he co-chaired the executive committee for the clinical trials of the pharmaceutical blood-thinning drug, Xarelto.
Xarelto is an FDA-approved drug that has caused numerous heart patients to bleed to death. A staggering 2,000 lawsuits have now been filed in the US because the drug is causing people to bleed profusely. However, drugs just like these continue to be accepted as medicine under the careful watch of the FDA’s Robert Califf.
European investigators are now finding out that Califf’s clinical trials to approve Xarelto took advantage of recalled devices that produce misleading test results.
Since 2011, Xarelto has been marketed by Janssen Pharmaceuticals, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson. Interestingly enough, the FDA’s Robert Califf, who set up the clinical trial to approve Xarelto, also received an $87,500 payment from Johnson & Johnson in 2012. The conflict of interest is apparent.
