    This is shoddy. I don’t know who produced it but if a junior PR agency person did a shallow read of some journal abstracts and wrote a script, it would come out like this.

    Bad video – I don’t know who produces this thing but the data is poorly presented and the drug names aren’t even pronounced right.

    Interleukin (the treatment I got) is pronounced “-kin” not “-kine”.

    She mentions “average survival.” The number she’s talking about is median survival; any student who’s taken Statistics 101 knows the difference and knows it’s important.

    She pronounces Sorafenib “Surefanib” and at 1:10 pronounces Sunitinib “Sunitidim.”
