"Could this be interpreted as a confidence in trial results? I mean why would they conduct this study if they werent sure of positive results? It would be a waste of money wouldnt it?"

I know I'm talking this thing to death,but it's on my mind.Going back to Van's original question, they've had the Type I trial results in their hands for almost a month now.Could they have been waiting to examine the results before spending the money on a new trial?Or even if this just happened to be the time the trial was ready to be started, they do have a good idea of the Type I trial results and they still went ahead with it.It seems to me that both of those scenarios would be a big positive.As Itell would say...hmmmm.

Ok,I'm done pumping for now,I'll shut up on the subject for a while.
