Firstly:
- I'm not qualified
- I don't know the details of the study
- So this is just my point of view!
I think you might find that in the end patients have a choice along the
lines of:
- either on't take eldpryl and have a possibly slightly longer life
- or take eldpryl and perhaps have a better quality of life with
perhaps a slightly reduced life expectancy
i.e. patients are going to have a *choice* which they can discuss with
their medical advisor and make the best decision for them.
Having said that, I don't think the experts have agreed much yet.
