Probably the most interesting items (to me) in the cc were:

1) The fact that the two arms were not balanced. When a prospectively defined Cox analysis was performed to account for the imbalance Xyotax was highly stat sig for survival. (The implication of this is that the docs found a way around the stratification and sicker patients were more likely to get Xyotax - although CTI didn't explicitly say that they stratified for the things in the Cox Regression)

2) US, Canada and WE all showed more cycles for Xyotax. By exclusion, EE did not - they showed equal.

Message - Need to control the trial. And that means doing it somewhere where you can maintain the needed control.
