No, censoring is normal in any Kaplan-Meier curve - it just means they haven't followed the patient for long enough yet (and there has been no event with that patient).

Thus if a patient started the trial only the day before the date of the graph, they would be shown as censored after 1 day.

(Remember K-M graphs pretend everyone starts the trial at the same time).

You can read more about it here:

Thanks to you and the others chiming in on this. Very helpful!
