Hi all
Dr Wei previously developed a vaccine that was trialled in Sweden with stage 4 patients. I know about this first hand from a Professor of Oncology that was from the Swedish centre. Unfortunately this trial (which I was very interested in) didn't produce the 'cure' they had hoped and it was back to the drawing board I believe.
I am really glad that this has now been progressed and hopefully will begin trials soon.
Do we know if this new trial is specifically for her 2? Will it accept stage 4 patients or just early stage bc?
Keeping fingers crossed for good news.
