Im not really grasping what this conversations actually about. It seems to be RAH saying it works. Then it seems to be a couple of posters talking about everything other than the fact it works. Then RAH saying yeah but it works. Then more discussion about anything but that with lots of “yeah but look at all these unknowns”.
It’s quite simple really. The aim of the company is to deliver chemo, in high doses, precisely, and with low to no side effects. The process that it goes through to get there otherwise known as trials have been so successful that another cohort is needed and probably more because it’s so safe that an MTD can’t be found. Somehow this is being spun into a financial negative. Yes…. It’ll cost more. Yes it’ll take a little longer. But we’ve been told to keep increasing the dose….. even Alastair smith didn’t expect it to work this well. I’m really struggling how “keep going lads, this looks great” is being spun into a negative? I realise a lot of traders want to keep their toy, but really, who cares? It’s like going into a big deep mine, and the bit of gold you saw at the bottom turns out to be enormous, but to get it out will take longer, it’ll cost a bit more in rope and time but It’ll be worth it because the reward is so much greater, and someone shouting down to you “yeah but that extra rope you’re going to need is expensive and it’ll take ages to get it all the way up here” even though the extra time and expense leads to massively greater gains at the end completely negating that extra time and effort. Maybe everyone here is in their 60s or 70s and you’re all really in some crazy rush. I don’t know. I don’t care either. I’ll just wait.
