RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Unfortunate timing - Nicholls article on RVX - 09/15One correction to my previous (and long) post. I originally wrote: "The 2 events (2 deaths) in the diabetic placebo group of
168 patients equates to a 3.077% event rate. The 1 event (1 MI) iin the diabetic RVX-208 group of
331 patients equates to a 0.7874% event rate. This is a 0.2559 hazard ratio for a RRR of ~74.4%."
It should have read "The 2 events (2 deaths) in the diabetic placebo group of 65 patients equates to a 3.077% event rate. The 1 event (1 MI) iin the diabetic RVX-208 group of 127 patients equates to a 0.7874% event rate. This is a 0.2559 hazard ratio for a RRR of ~74.4%."
