Re: vaccine results may not be as straight-forward as thought--a bit disconcerting!
Hello SandraGA,
Nice to see your post. I'm finished with all my trips to San Antonio and am suffering from withdrawals from my amazing nurses and the beautiful Riverwalk. Plus I don't get to see my niece and nephews often anymore.
I think Lani's post is wonderful news. The vaccines are very effective for Her2+/ER-. That's me!
I'm so grateful I was able to participate in the AE37/GP2 vaccine trial. I suspect I am still NED today due to the injections.
Lani, I don't understand this line in the results: Postvaccination phenotypes were significantly different between ERpos and ERneg subjects (P = .01), with 7 of 16 (43.8%) initially presenting with ERposHER-2/neupos luminal B phenotype finishing with the ERposHER-2/neuneg luminal A phenotype, and 3 of 6 (50%) with the ERnegHER-2/neupos phenotype changing to the ERnegHER-2/neuneg phenotype.
Is it possible for you to translate it into English for me?
