In my opinion , it will be the ethical way to go . But that's just me .

Is it probable...or even logical...for NWBO to Merge with Advent?

I don't think that's going to happen, no. If that were the purpose, it would have been much easier to have started Advent as an NWBO subsidiary. Besides. As I said if Flaskworks will do all the future heavy lifting for DCVAX production from any place worldwide with a suited cleanroom then what does NWBO need Advent as a local CDMO for as its subsidiary when they are a cell therapy CDMO doing work manually? Powerless should have never funnel-grifted all that money from shareholders in a CDMO we don't need long term but focussed on medical trials.

LP hates initiating medical trials and loves initiating CDMOs

That's an interesting possibility and presents a possible reason why Advent was set up separately, initially... in the unlikely case that DCVax isn't approved. In such a case Advent can continue its operations for other customers, being unburdened by any market repercussions on NWBO. Very smart on LP's part.

Therefore, upon approval, it could be a real possibility for NWBO to take over the Advent facility... unless LP wants manufacturing to remain separate for the potential franchise model.
