No, the 3.1 months was subtracted. Is says so clearly in the JAMA article explaining the results. If you include that time, patients had an additional 3.1 months behind the current survival benefit.

It discusses the 3.1 gap multiple places including in the visual you linked to, and in the results multiple times it explains the gap.

“RESULTS A total of 331 patients were enrolled in the trial, with 232 randomized to the DCVax-L group and 99 to the placebo group. Median OS (mOS) for the 232 patients with nGBM receiving DCVax-L was 19.3 (95% CI, 17.5-21.3) months from randomization (22.4 months from surgery) vs 16.5 (95% CI, 16.0-17.5) months from randomization in control patients (HR = 0.80; 98% CI, 0.00-0.94; P = .002). Survival at 48 months from randomization was 15.7% vs 9.9%, and at 60 months, it was 13.0% vs 5.7%. For 64 patients with rGBM receiving DCVax-L, mOS was 13.2 (95% CI, 9.7-16.8) months from relapse vs 7.8 (95% CI, 7.2-8.2) months among control patients (HR, 0.58; 98% CI, 0.00-0.76; P < .001). Survival at 24 and 30 months after recurrence was 20.7% vs 9.6% and 11.1% vs 5.1%, respectively. Survival was improved in patients with nGBM with methylated MGMT receiving DCVax-L compared with external control patients (HR, 0.74; 98% CI, 0.55-1.00; P = .03).”

And

“Findings in this Phase 3 nonrandomized controlled trial of 331 patients, patients with nGBM receiving DCVax-L had a median OS of 19.3 months from randomization (22.4 months from surgery), while contemporaneous, matched external control patients treated with SOC had a median OS of 16.5 months from randomization; for patients with rGBM, median OS was 13.2 months from relapse in the DCVax-L group vs 7.8 months in the external control cohort. Meaningful increases in the long-term tails of the survival curves in both nGBM and rGBM were also observed.”

The final numbers always excluded those 3.1 months. Don’t try to confuse people. You can read as well as the next person.
