Talking Beginning a clinical trial at MDAnderson

Hey everyone! Just wanted to share the good news of my acceptance into the Phase II of the HER2/new Peptide GP2+GM-CSF vaccine trial. Here's hoping I am randomized to the good stuff.

And if not, hoping it contributes to the end of breast cancer.

Re: Beginning a clinical trial at MDAnderson

Hey Meo!

Great, is that the same one I did at BAMC in San Antonio? I had the GP2 vaccine for at least 2 of the injections, the rest blindly randomized. And there is another AE37 arm, the one SandraGA was in.

Bring Tylenol just in case you get similar symptoms to mine - really came in handy.

So glad you joined. Thank you!
