Looking back
If the company had been a larger Pharma they could have trialled 1500-2000 patients. They would have had the muscle to get first call on those patients in hospitals ahead of many other trials and probably had priority on clinical staff working on multiple trials. They’d have been listened to my regulators and governments.
But they aren’t a large Pharma they’re a tiny company with a handful of employees, so looking back I think they played the best hand they could and the best one they could afford.
The landscape changed with vaccines and treatments. Could they have foreseen it, maybe, but what could they have done about it? Stop vaccinated patients being on the trial, stop patients been given Dexamethesone?
Realistically this tiny company are at the mercy of circumstances beyond their ability to control and have come along way despite the enormous hurdles.
