? Results out in just over 1 year.

What is your point, that the trial will fail? If so, what, what do you know that AZN doesn't? They wouldn't run a trial of that magnitude if it appeared as if it was destined to fail.

One issue I have with STRENGTH is the Corn Oil placebo. From my reading, Corn Oil taken in daily 4 gram doses has potential to lower the EPA:AA ratio from baseline in the placebo group. That means the placebo group may become sicker just by participating in the trial. When compared to the treatment arm, it will appear that a stronger result was obtained. Looks to me like a bit of Steve Nissen slight of hand!
