Re: Vaccine

Europa,

I'm sorry but I think you have received some misinformation on the AE37 vaccine. It is quite effective. The last report at SABC showed a 43% reduction in recurrence rates.

I did a little snooping and found this:

Then I went and checked the company's website and found they are planning on starting a phase III trial for lower expressers this year.

I'm a bit concerned about the rush for the lower expressions market, since I'm historically a higher expresser. I wonder if AE37 gets approved for lower expressors, are the HER2+++ just out of luck?

Anyone else know more about this?
