Rootjim,

I too hope that the silence indicates that DCVax-L has been successful. I don't really understand the ins and outs of the Scientific Advisory Board but if the trial had manifestly failed I understand that they must advise that the trial be terminated because of "futility". The trial has not been terminated, ergo the trial has not failed.

I believe that Woodford also believes that the trial hasn't failed, otherwise why keep hold of virtually worthless shares on which he's made a stonking paper loss so far. Today's Sunday Times "Business & Money" headlines with the news "Woodford forced into £1.4bn sell-off" providing the perfect time for him to ditch his NWBO shares without generating any more adverse headlines. It would be interesting to see whether his holding in NWBO remains intact

I think it ironic that there has been much speculation on this board that Woodford was aiming for Astra-Zeneca to take over NWBO, and yet this is one company in which he has sold virtually his entire holding over this year.
