Excerpts from JPM posted. Not concerned, mostly sarcasm.

Fezz touting 7.5 months plus 3 months to May 31 for 10.5 months when we had 9.2 months PFS in December. I thought silly Fezz but no one disputed.Exc

on yahoo:
"note that physician feedback from our recent
survey suggests they expect the data thus far will likely translate into an
OS benefit."
"oncologists wanted to see ~8 mos PFS and ~10 mos OS. We view this OS hurdle as achievable"
"…and this is important because interim OS will allow Halozyme to file on PFS in phase III"

It is like they are predicting PAG has a good chance of beating AG's 8.5 months and survey minimum goal of 10 months while we already have 9.2 months PFS as of December.

The thought that somehow the OS could not be far greater than 9.2 months is just dumb. I mean really, with 9.2 months PFS, ya thunk 10 months OS is achievable? Wow he really went out on a ledge with that prediction!!!

Again mostly sarcasm but because I am a layman, not an expert, not a MD/PHD, I was wondering if somehow my years of biotech stock research was flawed.

Thanks for confirming that OS can not be shorter than PFS. Now if we could educate the no it alls that 10 months OS is a slam dunk, in the bag, take it to the bank, no need for predictions or waiting for ASCO.
