Equal centralizer and commutator counts imply isoclinism

Let GG and SS be finite groups. Write GG' and SS' for their commutator subgroups, and let cent(G)cent(G) denote the set of centralizers of elements of GG.

Centralizer–commutator conjecture. If

cent(G)=cent(S)andG=S,|cent(G)|=|cent(S)|\quad\text{and}\quad |G'|=|S'|,

then GG is isoclinic to SS.

The question is posed after counterexamples showing that equality of the numbers of centralizers alone does not imply isoclinism. The conjecture asks whether adding equality of the orders of the commutator subgroups is sufficient; no resolution is supplied in the source.
