Did I miss the point here? Is the point of the expansion to have the option of removing the patients with the radiation compromised immune systems from the post analysis?

I thought they were saying that the bar needed to be lowered due to these patients. That would imply that these patients would be included in the analysis.

This sure puts pressure on radiation as a treatment, regardless. I had read that radiation can weaken the immune system, like some chemo can, but it is hard to visualize damaging all of your bone marrow, or all of your lymph nodes with radiation. It is generally very targeted, right? I guess the free radicals that it generates float around and do a great deal of damage all over the body.

Of course, as Flipper once said, not all radiation was created equal, as is true with chemo. And there is too much of a good thing. There is also too much of a bad thing.
