Now you are engaging in ageism. I hear Walmart’s having a sale on fertilizer. If you hurry, you could buy an oscillating fan too, and create your own ___ storm.

No matter what anyone here claims, we really don’t know if the data is in the hands of independent statisticians or if it’s even worthy of analysis, being so old.
LC, apparently you believe that if all the data in this trial had been relatively new, with no patient enrolled for more than let's say three years ago, all those recent results would have much more likely ensured the success of this trial.
In other words the long, thick tail of survivors caused by the long term nonproportional hazard effects of DCVax-L are irrelevant and can be dispensed with. GLTU.
As to the independent statisticians who may as yet not have seen the data, where does the data usually land after data lock? Does it need further maturation in the company's safe deposit box for weeks before the statisticians graciously agree to begin their calculations and analysis?
