>In response to your question, at some point the FDA is going to start grumbling about them trying to unblind the trial early. It's one thing if an investigator makes a comment, it's quite another if they systematically try to uncover this information. In fact I think they made some reference to this relating to looking at hair-loss among patients who had died.<

This CTIC situation solidifies my opinion that the sponsor of a registration directed phase III trial should not be receiving monthly updates on safety (ie. deaths). It would imply greater cost, but the IRB / DSMB should be renumerated to fill in the mandated FDA safety reports and submit them directly to the agency without the sponsor getting involved.

CTIC is making a game of their event accrual. Soon they'll put a counter up on their website.
