  • it’s not even known yet and they say so:

    The primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS) assessed by BICR per RECIST 1.1. Secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), duration of response (DoR), and safety profile. (…) The OS data were immature.

    it was also only for late stage metastatic patients with a very specific mutation. now, since AZ has the rights, and they have money for trials, they can try to get a trial for earlier stages, and so this new better drug might be used for larger patient population while still patented. and that would be money printer














  • Yeah they’ll make medbeds any day now. Or maybe it’s for their internal use only, because they’ll noticed bubble and don’t like what they’re seeing. I wonder if they’re foolish enough to vacuum up all data from companies that used their chatbots to come up with something hoping that no one will notice

    Every single bit of that is so fucking stupid, they’re replaying crypto playbook 1:1. Spot an industry that they think they’ll manage in, then try to leech off of it in purest display of rentseeking imaginable, coupled with techbros folk belief that since programming is soo haard, then as they can do that they can do everything else too, all with no plan, no labs, no specialists onboard or faintiest idea what they’re doing

    apparently it’s NFPA (american fire safety code) thing. these regulations might have been written when inhalational anesthetics were flammable. also keep in mind that people under anesthesia can’t move and that was also probably a factor

    maybe it is for power cord specifically, and the same type is used for hospital equipment. some of (modern) anesthetics are powerful solvents but not particularly flammable. maybe it also has something to do with potential extra oxygen (or nitrous oxide) content in air
