$IOVA Before saying anything else: a positive readout is evidently better than a negative one.
Said that, I am trying to read into the mind of the persons who wrote the title.
Why is the word POSITIVE in the title? If results are stellar you do not need that word because it will be apparent. However if the ORR is lower than hoped for, you might want to add that word ‘positive’ to limit an eventual negative reaction by telling yourself you consider it a positive readout.
Identically, why blurring the most anticipated news about the lung trial with the somewhat unrelated (well, it is off course somewhat related) news and put that in the title? Indeed, you would do that for the same reason: to compensate for the somewhat lower efficacy than hoped for.
If results would be stellar, I would just have the title focussing on the lung trial, would leave the word POSITIVE out and drop the nuke tomorrow and burn all shorts and non believers.
All comments welcome.
