Oh geez guys. I know I'm late to the party and this is going to get buried but Northwest Bio (the company doing this research) is a well known fraud.
The study in question failed it's primary endpoints....so the company changed the endpoints....and threw out their control arm. The data presented here is compared to a cherry picked "historical control." To make maters worse, this trial has been done for years. The technology used here (dendritic vaccines) has just never lived up to the hype and is pretty old at this point.
All of this is basically unacceptable to the FDA, and this will never get approved, but that's not the grift these guys are involved in. Their scam is to just endlessly offer stock and pay themselves enormous salaries. They never want this program to complete. This trial in particular took over a decade with endless delays.
Do not trust this research. Do not trust this company.
