Re: vaccine results may not be as straight-forward as thought--a bit disconcerting!
Hi 'lizbeth,
So you have no return visits after we finish? I know I will miss my nurse and the trips toNorth Carolina.
Lani,
Are familiar with the study being conducted at MD Anderson using a peptide vaccine along with Herceptin in the neo-adjunctive setting. There was someone on this board enrolled in that. I just have not heard from her lately.
Thank you for all you do to keep us informed.
Sandra
