I am currently enrolled in this trial at Wake Forest @ Baptist Hospital in Winston Salem, North Carolina. I have had my 3rd vaccine last week and have thus far tolorated them well except for a great deal of swelling at the injection site that lasts for about 1 week. This is very exciting as it is the beginning for finding a vaccine to prevent Breast Cancer in all women. Right now they are seeking women who are no longer than 6 months out of treatment, high risk and her2 poisitive. Glad to hear you will also be starting the trial Janelle. Good Luck
