    They know the death rate of A+B (i.e. all the patients in the trial) and they know the death rate of C (i.e patients not in the trial). If the death rate of the patients in the trial is the same as the death rate of the patients outside of the trial then A+B ~= C. If the treatment is highly effective then A+B ~= 0.5C.

    Putting this into numbers if C is 60% and A+B is 60% then you know that B is 60% (i.e. a dud). If B was 10% (i.e. very effective) then A+B is 35%.
