Whilst I sincerely hope the Novartis agreement goes ahead - I do agree with you that old mate SI is away with the fairies when it comes to providing timelines.

He does his own and the company’s credibility no good at all with his vague and evasive approach in this regard.

Listening back to the CC from last Thursday he gives a similarly vague response to the question of assays. The company (as per the cash burn) has been producing produce since the conclusion of the GVHD Phase 3 trial - so it must be swimming in batch assay data. Listening to SI you would be forgiven for thinking that they have only just recently got around to the whole idea of batch consistency measuring to assuage the FDAs concerns.
