While I think DF will be part of the announcement I hope it doesn't get announced concurrent with a journal article. That will mean we will have lost a lot of time. First, someone has to write the article and that is a demanding task. Then, the best journals are peer reviewed, which means the prospective paper will be sent to other experts for a critique. That takes a while. Then it has to be accepted by the journal and published. All of this takes time too. Meanwhile, assuming efficacy, people are sick that could benefit. Also, later phase trials are delayed while a journal article gets published.

I hope DF and the company give a preview announcement of results and the docs can mess with the fine detail in a journal publication at a later date. There is an audience for the detail but hopefully that will not prevent announcement of results, the data going to the FDA and progress being made on getting the process underway for subsequent trials.
