My apologies. Not everyone here has the luxury of unlimited free time for chitterchatting on Ihub. Fun fact, I was at the dentist this morning, did you know they're also doctors?
1. Independently reviewed by... NOT Algernon Pharmaceuticals. The entire point is it's reviewed by an external body to avoid any conflict of interest and "cooking" the results.
2. Sure they're taking big fat paychecks. Do they deserve as much as they're getting? Who's to say. If this drug ends up being one of the top 3 therapeutics used for covid19 do they then deserve it? When do you suggest we decide if they deserve it or not. Maybe we should request they get zero salary until they find a successful drug candidate..... we'd have the leading team in the business under that model...
3. You must not be following any of the news releases nor doing any dd if you haven't come across the issues with the fire. The hospital was in lockdown for essential services only due to the fire which meant there was no way to get in and retrieve the data as that's not considered essential. I'm honestly not going to even spend the 30 seconds to find the direct link to the hospital fire and then match the name of the hospital in the article to the Romanian hospital that is listed as a trial site for Ifenprodil. Or hey, even the interview where Chris offers his condolences to the families who lost loved ones in the fire at their trial site. Side note - did you guys know that there's this new viral trend online in Texas where people are trying to melt snowballs with lighters and the snow just turns black and doesn't melt? I've heard the snow is some kind of government conspiracy related to climate change...........!!???????!??? I'm sure nobody here is from Texas though.
4. Multitasking. Also see point 2.
5. We're running a multi-national covid-19 therapeutic trial for a virus that's killing hundreds of thousands of people. Time is of the essence. "The norms" of science went out the window right next to the vaccines being distributed world-wide to humans with what, 4 months of human trials... jesus christ. If you have more data include it. Why hold it back? Just doesn't make sense to me.
6. Dilute dilute dilute, the name of the penny stock game. They will dilute until they hit the jackpot on one of the drugs in their pipeline because as we all know, trials actually costs somes moneys. Will it be this one? I sure hope so, but nobody really knows. Except that doctor in Miami or wherever it was, apparently he knows.
7. Ps. Prelim data only had some endpoints included and almost none related to the longer term efficacy of Ifenprodil.
