Brief description of the problem

An Out-of-Specification (OOS) result was obtained during a stability study.

This recall is being issued as a company-led medicines recall, as this product is only supplied to several hospitals/customers and the manufacturer has full traceability.

The remaining stock of the above batches should be quarantined and returned to the company directly. Arrangements will be been made by Advanced Accelerator Applications to resupply hospital sites with unaffected products.
