You have asked a very interesting question. Your interest in doing this can only be answered by the present vaccine program trials. At this point they are using the patients stem cells. Clinical trials cannot deviate from their protocol ,but it is an interesting concept to look into off trial. Ask your onc for contacts to find an immunnologists who can better answer your question. I can understand your need for you to help your sister, and would think you can get a better answer from Cancer Centers who have performed stem cell transplants out of a clinical trial. Such places should exists in your area. Here in CA we have City of Hope Hospital.

I applaud your initiative and your intriging idea.

Good luck and Best wishes, Christine
