Just at a glance this data doesn't seem convincing to me.

Issues:
1. Average age of patients seem low. A large portion of control and treatment groups seem they would recover naturally. Therefore, even if the statistical aspect is solid it doesn't show this drug cures patients who would otherwise die.

2. the 3 patients with over 80 years of age are all female and all in treatment group.

3. the group with "combo" treatment has the smallest sample size and suspicious age composition. Only 1 that is just 60 yo.
