Idenix Pharmaceuticals (IDIX)

New guesses....

Per protocol basis : 77 and 75
ITT basis : 70 and 68

The large numbers of dropouts relative to placebo makes it necessary to specify the basis , IMO , but for simplicity's sake you can choose whichever pair above you wish.

There is one thing about this data that bothers me more than any other : Why didn't I get to see it two days ago like everyone else ? Is there some kind of filter on my PC that holds data releases for 48 hrs. ? Am I in the " Biotech Investing Twilight Zone" ?

I don't know whether to assume the 12 wk. negs were also neg at 4 wks. , or what ? All in all , a crappy data release by VRTX , probably because it was hastened by the obviousness of the leakage. The SEC should make everyone who had access to the VRTX data wear Pampers for a week , on the outside where everyone can see.
