Her2 vaccine

Hi All
Last year someone posted a news article about some promising research from Wayne State University relating to a her2 DNA vaccine developed by Wei-Zen Wei.
It was reported to have been 100% successful in mice. I know that this doesn't always translate into human results (BIG shame) but I have been unable to find out if it is approaching clinical trials yet?

Would be grateful if anyone has any info.
Ellie

Hi Ellie,

I think Rich was following up for a while on this trial but found not that it was suspended due to lack of funding. It made no sense since the results were so great. Not sure if there are any new updates since Spring.
