Hello everyone.
I want to let you know about a new vaccine trial that is being offered at the Cancer Vaccine Institute of the University of Washington. Back in 2012/13 I participated in a vaccine trial when it was called the U of W Tumor Group. Other members here also participated in vaccine trials specifically for HER2 positive patients. This new trial takes a completely different approach. This one is for metastatic disease only.

Hi Steph! I am so happy to see your name and see that you are still active and doing well. It just warms my heart. Please - check your inbox - I sent you a pm. Hopefully we will talk soon. and PS to all, I too participated in a U of W vaccine clinical trial in 2005 when I was diagnosed with mets to my lungs. I am NED 15 years later....I highly recommend this group and their trials.

Congratulations to you both!!!!
So great for the good news of so many years of NED!
I am feeling so grateful to herceptin and the healing I received.
I am 19 years away from my Stage 3b in 2001.
I really appreciate the support I found here on this forum. :)
BTW I used to be a lifeguard at Hammonasset when I was 20 years old.
I loved that beach :)
Keep the bright lights shining for all those suffering with disease!
