So what i don't get is why dexamethasone was fast tracked into use after successful signals in the trial where it only seemed to improve the outcomes of 1 in 8 people.
Using the same logic why would you not continue to use a therapeutic which helped the outcomes of 4 in 5 people as in SNG001?
So my theory which i'd like someone knowledgeable to disprove, is that after the data results came in, hospitals have continued to use SNG001 and the added numbers reported on the trials site reflect how many people have been part of these upgraded 'Pivotal' phase 2 trials and they are only waiting on the at home groups before they can do a full assessment of results.
To aid this, the 'administrative' update to the trials site added a whole bunch of new criteria which would open up the home trial to the over 50's group including 'BMI over 30, high temperature, loss of smell and/or taste' which should rapidly increase takeup.
Someone shoot me down.
