Re: Johns Hopkins Her2 Vaccine Trial
Completed my first round of vaccines. Burned like you know what but ok now.
feonad,
the study I am in is run by Dr. Leisha Emens at Johns Hopkins. She has two studies and recently added the her2 specific including stage III like me. I also think the University of Washington study has a stage III arm. If you are interested in pursuing a vaccine trial, keep looking -- there are several Stage III vaccine trials out there. A good source is clinicaltrials.gov. The information they provide lists the inclusion criteria. Get the information and take it to your dr. Good Luck.
