Since posting this morning, I have read the article written in The Age newspaper. Quoting from this:
'For his part, Itescu says he wasn't quite as spooked as investors by signs the US Food and Drug Administration's drug advisory council was going to put Mesoblast's treatment under severe scrutiny. "We have been very well prepared for this meeting, we have known what the issues are and we've known what the answers are" he says.

It is now clear to me that Mesoblast new what they were in for and were not phased by the questioning.
