They would not be told the randomization was otherwise. It would of course still go through the DSMB.

The answer makes no sense, the randomization is exact. They do not just end up with missing arms. His answer can be heard a lot of different ways. People heard it the way they heard it because they believed and still believe certain things. But we won't know until we and they know.

When for instance, the DSMB might be required to eliminate an arm, let's say for an ethical reason but not yet to break the blind, they can still "randomize" to another arm, it's just that neither are placebo. The company was blind all the way through, so there is NO WAY they an know anything specific about the randomization and of course they are going to continue saying that is the case, because as long as they were concerned, IT WAS.

Of course the FDA was involved in the HOLD. As I said, if ANY regulator places a hold, the FDA is immediately and automatically involved and the trial comes to a halt. But the original halt is still applicable as you can see from the very website that confirmed the change to the end points. The FDA's hold was not necessarily the CAUSE. Different issue than who was involved.
