1) A clarification regarding the dosage reduction: it was a tactical decision based on the serum levels obtained from the first two doses, which diverged from expectations ( and actually were lower than anticipated). Based on the effects Pharmos thinks (based on results that they state remain blinded) are being obtained from HU211 on the first two cohorts, they decided that 300 would be too large a leap, and would risk hitting a downward slope of diminishing returns. Second, while the Israeli authorities had authorized up to 300mg, some IRBs at individual sites had only authorized up to 200mg, and time would have been consumed by revising those limits. The most important element is that PARS definitively states that the reduction was not due to any adverse effects emerging from the first two cohorts.
2) I would add what may by this point be a superfluous note of support and appreciation for the numerous postings made by Ariella on this thread, which are consistently thoughtful and well-informed,devoid of the blind boosterism that mars so many threads and messages.
