bacterial sinusitis, acute bacterial exacerbation of chronic bronchitis 
in patients who have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and 
uncomplicated urinary tract infections in the context of available 
safety information and the treatment effect of antibacterial drugs in 
these clinical conditions.
    FDA intends to make background material available to the public no 
later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post 
the background material on its Web site prior to the meeting, the 
background material will be made publicly available at the location of 
the advisory committee meeting, and the background material will be 
posted on FDA's Web site after the meeting. Background material is

session. The contact person will notify interested persons regarding 
their request to speak by October 15, 2015.
