Peter:

Do not hold me for naive person.

>>So how did this imbalance happen? I think it is most likely that the statistical trial gods were just unkind. As has been pointed out, if you assign patients randomly, you are not_guaranteed_ an even distribution of characteristics between the two groups.<<

Than, why any randomized and blind trials has independent safety and statistic monitor? To be paid for what? Even better, why placebo group at all?

I am not applying manipulation. Trial statistical data are compromised with this imbalance and FDA statistician will not be so generous as I am, IMO.
