Please explain what this is? Who qualifies? Is this given along with treatment? Thanks Ceesun

Ceesun,

I also particpated in the Univ of WA tumor vaccine trial. I believe you have to be originally diagnosed stage 3 or 4, and currently NED (or close). Here is a link to their trials. They were very helpful when I originally emailed requesting information. For the trial I am enrolled in, I had to fly to Seattle 7 times in a 15 month period. My last visit is next Friday.

Here is the link to their trials:

I wish they offered these vaccine trials near me - did you have any side effects from the vaccines?

What do they mean by maintenance dose of Herceptin?
