You're forgetting improved quality of life over SOC which I doubt even you're disputing.

Even DCVax Direct offers only unimpressive overall survival that is comparable to SOC, this benefit would still come without the dire side effects of radiation and chemotherapy.

That is why Dr. Bosch emphasized that Phase 2 would be looking closely at Quality of Life considerations.

Leaving aside the humanitarian considerations, improved quality of life also has a financial benefit because it enables patients to work more and experience fewer and less expensive hospitalizations, even assuming they eventually succumb to cancer.

None of this matters if NWBO cannot cram down the price. But if it can, then quality of life and the safety of the therapy will be an important factor, not just if it adds months or years.
