Fine: I have always been there. We disagreed on you calling phase 2 a failure. Was the response rate at phase 2 enough for approval? no where close. So you call it a failure. I will still call phase 2 a success because it led to here and the fda allowed them to continue this new trial. They have learned a lot about from it, the half-life was listed wrong before for example, bringing in Dr. P with the density test is helping with cancer also. I’m with Edison here...
Edison: “I didn't fail 1,000 times. The light bulb was an invention with 1,000 steps."
But without NP, yes mono would have ended at phase 2. No doubt in my mind. Then I would have agreed with you, it being a failure, if it ended there.
