Manfred, you do know that the study was blinded, don't you? XOMA did not know in which groups the deaths had occurred nor
other details. The DSMB saw a favorable trend and the FDA mandated necessary mortality target of 34 had not been reached so the study continued. I am not sure how halting in mid trial to make an adjustment works in a well regulated, FDA controlled system. Might work better under a system that used a bit of anarchy and common sense.

Perhaps it would be better to wait until you read the entire article.
