Re: BC Vaccine – Looking for your Thoughts
Hi
I have also looked at the vaccine trial at MSKCC and have discussed it with my onc here. Whilst I appreciate it's phase 1 I understand the research leading up to it was very sound coming out of a world famous treatment centre. I am currently waiting for info from other trials to compare them.
One of the issues for me is that with all vaccines currently in trials it appears that they may confer some short term immunity but overcoming 'tolerance remains a difficult problem.Whilst most of them seem able to generate both cellular and humoral responses it remains uncertain as to whether this alters long term outcomes.I am really, really hoping that soon some researcher will find a way round these difficulties.
