I hear you.
It sounds like you would prefer a completely different trial altogether. Murcidencel has been investigated in three successful trials—only the P3 relied on an ECA. I recommend the pembrolizumab combo study at UCLA supported by the NIH and Merck. The interim survival data are astonishing so far at the midpoint of this study.

The combo research is briefly highlighted by Dr. Toms at timestamp 6:30:
The placebo group for the combo trial are all receiving murcidencel (DCVax-L) as if it were SoC already.

Murcidencel (DCVax-L) is discussed beginning at minute 40, to focus on Keytruda (pembrolizumab) plus DCVax in combo at UCLA, skip to minute 45:40

The NIH is largely responsible for the development of the murcidencel cell-based platform technology as they have always supported and funded Liau’s research. The 20 consecutive years of NIH funding of Dr. Liau have played a direct and crucial role in murcidencel. Together with Merck, NIH is funding the murcidencel doses going into arms TODAY in a study investigating its efficacy in combo with pembrolizumab.

Believe carefully. This is the greatest and most powerful lesson that I have learned since arriving on Earth. Examine what you believe about yourself most importantly, and then believe carefully as you interact with the world.
