They have kept the location of the B-UP trial secret, and I hope they will also do this with this new trial site. Why? Because we know for a fact that some hedge funds have hired investigators to try to figure out if a clinical trial is working or not. There have been stories of hospital personnel being bribed - in one case, supposedly a custodian was hired to snoop around, and in other cases nurses and doctors. There have been reports of private investigators lurking outside test sites, getting license numbers of patients' cars, then tracking down their Facebook accounts to see if they were posting about feeling better (which in the case I read about, indeed someone did feel better, and the cancer drug they were taking was later FDA-approved).
And in another case that some of us know about because we invested in the company, a drug had promising clinical trial results. However, though it seemed efficacious, in that particular study the placebo group had an extraordinarily high "response" rate -- so even though the drug seemed to work, and if compared to an untreated population it did work -- because of the extremely unusual placebo response rate, the trial was deemed to have failed.
Many of us think that the placebo group information had been tampered with, or that perhaps they were actually dosed with the real drug or another drug that might have been efficacious.
Given the magnitude of the amounts of money we're talking about if even ONE of IPIX's drugs were to be FDA-approved, and given the concerted action of a criminal cabal in shorting this stock, and given the documented history of at least one and probably two big pharmaceutical companies who used middlemen to drive down the stock price of a company that they later took over --
I applaud any secrecy the company can have about trial sites.
Remember how all the bashers elsewhere were screaming and yelling about how they wanted to know where the B-UP trial was held? Now why would that be of such concern to people who already were bearish on the stock, hmmm?
