BC Vaccine from HER2??? New to me....
Had not heard of this before myself. Is this just something we already know about in different language?

Cheryl,
There are several clinical trials, some in phase II for HER2 Vaccines: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct/sea...ER2%2C+vaccine Regards Joe |
I just thought this sounded like something different from the other vaccine trials more of a preventative vaccine of sorts. Maybe it is just the way I'm reading it.
The last paragraph stated: "The results demonstrate for the first time that this DC vaccination may have significant clinical activity against certain types of breast cancer," said Brian J. Czerniecki, M.D., of the University of Pennsylvania, and lead author of the study. "We are confident that targeted treatment with this vaccine may effectively fight not only DCIS, but may extend to prevention of breast cancer entirely." |
