My oncologist referred me to U of W to participate in the HER2neu trial. I am stage 4 (BRCA2, HER2neu+, ER+, PR+) with stable bone-only mets. She thought the HER2neu trial would be more beneficial than the TroVax trial because it targets HER2neu. But after I read some posts on this site about the new virus-based vaccine, I asked her again and she said she couldn't make a recommendation.

Does anyone have insight into which trial might be more beneficial?

Thank you,

Alison
