I believe the definition of curative according to the FDA is no recurrence over 5 years. In nearly 100% of the cases the patient walks out with no detectable cancer. That's never been a problem. The problem is the cancer sells which can't be detected.

As to the rest of you post, it's just plain wrong. In one interview by one of the investigators he gave the example of a pancreatic cancer drug that only improves the mean progression by 3 weeks yet the FDA still approved it. 33% is not a "softball" since it stil represents months.
