UNBLINDED DSMB
Don't forget that the DSMB did a trial specific analysis ( unblinded ) for the first 184 patients and they surely saw something good in results from patients with MODS>9. That's why they proposed the additional exclusion criterion. So I think that we will have probably very good results with the last and final 176 patients randomized. My estimate is 15-25% absolute mortality rate which is very good, I suppose, for FDA approval.
