Very true.. Just tired of some of the armchair experts, mainly on Yahoo which I check out too often, that have some faulty logic. They all parrot the same thing, "if the data is bad than we would know already, therefore the data must be great" I hope they are right but you can't just completely leave out the in between Edited February 24 by Dwayne Hoover 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Again, the RFTLF study finished enrolling 5 days after and had data 2-3 weeks ago. Either AMARAX is the worst company you can hire for data analysis or NP is up to something.

It’s uncharacteristic because Pourhassan has not been shy in touting the potential of CytoDyn’s only drug, an experimental antibody called leronlimab — not currently approved to treat anything. He has claimed leronlimab is capable of effectively treating HIV, 22 different types of cancer, fatty liver disease, multiple sclerosis, and Alzheimer’s disease, among other ailments. For years, CytoDyn’s stock price traded for pennies per share. But when the pandemic struck, Pourhassan started pitching leronlimab as a life-saving treatment for patients with Covid-19. His comments helped push the stock as high as $10 per share last year, giving the company a $6 billion market value. Last month, Pourhassan said CytoDyn’s stock price — $4 at that time — should trade in the “three or four digits.” At $100 per share, CytoDyn would be worth more than Moderna. At $1,000 per share, it would be worth almost as much as Johnson & Johnson and Novartis — the two largest health care companies — combined. Last year, CytoDyn had no revenue and more than doubled its net loss to $124 million. Pouhassan had been priming investors for weeks to expect results from a completed Phase 3 clinical trial designed to demonstrate that injections of leronlimab would improve the survival of patients with severe Covid-19 more than a placebo. He predicted that positive results from the study, known as CD-12, would spur the Food and Drug Administration to quickly grant leronlimab an emergency use authorization. And with that clearance, CytoDyn would be able to deliver billions of dollars in leronlimab sales, Pourhassan said. But on Monday, CytoDyn issued a cryptic statement about the CD-12 study: The leronlimab trial had been unblinded — meaning the study results were now known to the company — but would not be disclosed publicly. “We are eager to reach a conclusion in our discussions with all the regulatory agencies for the path going forward and will release the details of our data and the results of our discussions with regulatory agencies in the coming weeks,” Pourhassan said in the statement. If the CD-12 study results prove leronlimab is saving the lives of perilously ill Covid-19 patients, why wouldn’t CytoDyn disclose the data immediately? It’s standard biotech company practice to share the results with the public and investors right away when a trial is unblinded, even if it is holding simultaneous discussions with regulators. The outcome of the CD-12 study is also a material event for CytoDyn, so as a public company, it has an obligation to disclose expeditiously. Asked to further explain the company’s statement regarding its CD-12 results, Pourhassan responded via email, “Please clarify your question and your motive for asking such a question.” Pourhassan did not respond to a follow-up email on Wednesday. CytoDyn General Counsel Arian Colachis did not respond to a request for comment. Last July, CytoDyn issued a statement declaring leronlimab’s safety profile was “impressive”following the conclusion of a separate clinical trial involving patients with moderate Covid-19. Detailed safety data were not disclosed. Ten days later, CytoDyn organized a conference call for investors on which Pourhassan said the leronlimab study in moderate Covid-19 had delivered “positive efficacy results,” again without offering corroborating details. Weeks and months later, CytoDyn acknowledged that the study failed to achieve its primary goal and that it was unable to provide definitive data showing leronlimab was effective against Covid-19. CytoDyn submitted the leronlimab data to the FDA anyway, requesting an emergency use authorization. The FDA denied the request. Last February, in the early days of the coronavirus’s global spread, CytoDyn announced the signing of a letter of intent to license leronlimab to a China-based health care company. One year later, CytoDyn hasn’t said publicly if the letter of intent ever led to a formal deal, or if any progress has been made. In April, CytoDyn said it was “collaborating” with U.K. health officials to provide emergency access to leronlimab for severely ill patients with Covid-19. Emergency access has not been granted. In May, CytoDyn said it was preparing a clinical trial to investigate the combination of leronlimab and Gilead Sciences’ remdesivir in patients with Covid-19. The study has not started. In May and June, CytoDyn said it had completed negotiations with the government health officials in Mexico to conduct a clinical trial of leronlimab in patients with Covid-19. This study has also not been conducted. In August, CytoDyn said it had requested “fast track approval” from U.K. regulators for the treatment of Covid-19 patients with leronlimab. No such approval has been granted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CYDY is a small company that struggles with easy tasks. This approval will be unlike anything they've ever undertaken and NP and SK don't have the skill or experience to succeed without help.

unckeyherb 1,551 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 From Ihub regarding endpoints. FDA apparently changed guidelines 4 days ago... Quote FDA Changes EndPoint Guidelines for Severe/Critically Ill COVID Therapeutics/Biologics on Feb 22, 2021 I found this information interesting and possible explanation of why Cytodyn did not release TLD and why they are talking with the FDA. However, make your opinion on these findings. FDA Guidelines (sources) May 11, 2020 guidelines:https://issuu.com/greeley2/docs/fda_guidancecovid_19-developing-drugs Feb 22, 2021: Press release: https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/coronavirus-covid-19-update-fda-issues-policies-guide-medical-product-developers-addressing-virus Updated Guidelines: https://www.fda.gov/media/137926/download[/url][tag]insert-text-here Comparison Quote: - In a trial in severe and/or critically ill patients, examples of appropriate endpoints could be - All-cause mortality at an appropriate time point (e.g., at least 28 days for hospitalized noncritically ill patients,(footnote27) 60 days for critically ill patients(footnote 28) - Footnote 28 "C Karagiannidis, C Mostert, C Hentschker, T Voshaar, J Malzahn, G Schillinger, J Klauber, U Janssens, G Marx, S Weber-Carstens, S Kluge, M Pfeifer, L Grabenhenrich, T Welte, and R Busse, 2020, Case Characteristics, Resource Use, and Outcomes of 10021 Patients with COVID-19 Admitted to 920 German Hospitals: an Observational Study, Lancet Respir Med, 8(9):853–862." (This study seemed to influence the change)The FDA has changed the guidance for endpoints related to Critically Ill Covid Patience on All-Cause Mortality from 28 days (May 11,2020) to 60 days (Feb 22, 2021). Is it a coincidence that Nader issues a press release the same day the FDA updated guidance? I think this was intentional. With this new guidance the CYDY CD12 Trial is in a gray area. The trial is concluded with data at 14 days, 28 days and 42 days (reco from DSMC). However, the FDA is reco/asking for 60 days of data for Critically Ill. I doubt that the FDA revised this guidance on Feb 19th and probably was pulling this together over the past month, the same time CYDY was ready to report. Either CYDY was aware of these changes in early FEB (after Nader said TLD was going to be reported) OR FDA contacted CYTO to let them know (less likely) or CYDY went to share the unblinded data with the FDA first and they realized they had an conflict between the data collected and the new guidelines being developed. Maybe the FDA needed some time to provide guidance to CYDY on how to manage the data from the trial and path for submission. This quote (IMO) makes a little more sense now. “We are eager to reach conclusion in our discussions with all the regulatory agencies for the path going forward and will release the details of our data and the results of our discussions with regulatory agencies in the coming weeks.” You make your own decision, but did not see anyone talking about this point.
