Yes that would be a concern. My understanding is that any recommendation received by the company is a material news and the company must convey to the general public within 72 hours.

In my opinion, the window for that to happen is from now to late October, and the result would be more than 80% for a continue, and about 15% for stop for efficacy or about 5% for stop for safety concern, but I love a positive surprise!

In the meantime, I expect we will have some other positive news.

Typically, the DMC takes a month to six weeks once the sponsor gives them the data. My sense is that the sponsor already gave them the data.

Why a concern? If the interim is reached then a recommendation has to be given and has to be disclosed within a few days (be it a continue or early stop for efficacy)
If an interim is not reached until 2016, it means that the number of events has not been reached yet and that is good as it means that the treated arms have longer pfs.
