"Bear - any thoughts on how long it might take for the BoM trial design and rationale paper to be accepted and be available for viewing in the public domain? Likely not before topline as these processes often take awhile....... edits, revisions, re-submissions, etc.. I would love to see it before topline but doubt there is enough time."
Personally, I 100% expect the rationale and design paper to be accepted and published before top-line. This type of paper doesn't require experimentation, results and interpretations.....things that reviewers scrutinize heavily. The trial is already designed, approved and nearly completed. This type of paper should breeze through the review process, with minimal revisions/re-submissions, if any, required. I expect this paper to be published around the time of the design and rationale presentation at ESC by Dr. Kausik Ray in early September, if not before. I wouldn't be surprised one bit if it was published any day now. All my opinion. Actual results may vary.
