"Tuohy now wants to move forward in testing the vaccine in human patients. Enrollment could begin next year according to the Cleveland Clinic."

This is also stated in the article. Am I wrong to assume that they will begin testing or trials on patients that already have cancer, metastatic or otherwise...not sure. It may take 10 years for it to reach market for "healthy" women. But I take it to mean that we may be getting access to it in forms of trials within a year or so....correct me if I'm wrong...sherry
