Phase 2 vaccine trial

Is this the same vaccine as the one given at Walter Reed which I think was the E75 vaccine. I think you need to be a specific blood type to qualify.

iodine loading test

Thanks, Vickie.
I'm going to try to find someone in the New York City area to give me the test.
My oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering is very conservative & won't do it.
