Hey,Lolly!
Great that you want to participate. That is the trial I tried to qualify for, but the big thing is that you have to have a special HLA number - A2. Mine was not 2 - so had to skip this one.
If you ARE truly interested, you will need to by "typed" to see if you are A2. This is NOT a normal test they run and you should begin to ask about how that would work in your case at your clinic. This is a test they do for organ donars, and is not in the normal loop.
