Re: Oncologist says no clinical trials for me
Hi I'm not sure your location but I've been traveling to Seattle for a vaccine trial that has had good results, others on this board have been on it. You have to still be on herceptin. There are no side affects (for me any way) Have a look at The Tumor Vaccine Group, at the University of Washington. They are a great group I'm half way through this treatment and feel I've now given it my best shot at not getting cancer back. All the best. Jacqui
