ghmm et al: An anomaly in the Boceprevir SPRINT-1 data:

The SVR rate in the “4+44” arm as reported in yesterday’s PR was 75%.

The SVR12 rate in this same trial arm as reported at AASLD was 74% (#msg-33283156).

Something’s wrong here because SVR, by definition, cannot be higher than SVR12!

I presume that the discrepancy stems from the re-inclusion in the SVR data set of one responder who was excluded from the SVR12 data set.

Did any analysts pick up on this anomaly during the webcast?
