Gametherory101: Do you refer to the first line in the abstract when you say that there were 12 survivors at the time of the last editing of the JCO-paper?

If so, the line reads: "Of the 127 patients, 115 had progressive disease at the time of data analysis, and all patients were followed for survival for 36 months."

DNDN apparently performed the data analysis on the TTP after 90% (90.5% to be precise) had progressed - thus 90% was the trigger point for the progression events. Along the same line, the "time of data analysis" is therefore not referring to the time of final analysis (in this case the analyses needed for writing the JCO paper), but the time of analysis refers to the point in time when those 90.5% of the patients had evented.

As far as I can see from the JCO paper, it doesn't mention anything about the number of survivors at the time the paper was written. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Best regards,
Bengt
