Re: Questions About Vaccinations
Karen, does that mean you are not eligible for the Seattle vaccine? You have to be NED? Drat! Keep an eye on the other ones; maybe they will have looser eligibility criteria.
My understanding is that after reviewing blood samples that I sent in after the last vaccine, they saw anti her2 antibodies making me a "responder". I believe this is the study I was a participant in : http://depts.washington.edu/tumorvac...rap_449-54.pdf
I hope you are successful in finding a trial. Fingers and toes crossed!
Love Kim from CT
