Fair enough. But I didn't say I thought the halt was for futility. I didn't say that regulatory asked for it. I said I thought it was for an interim look. Any such look could result in continue, AA, or a finding of utility. NWBO was apparently worried enough about the results to lower the bar, so I think you have to consider a decision of futility at least a remote possibility.

Though I really don't know much about these things, as advertised, as far as I know, a halt for futility can simply be a recommendation from the DMC that the odds of success are low enough that spending more money doesn't make sense. It does not have to come from an agency.
