There are two different HER2 vaccine trials at the U of W.
Michele U took the DNA one and Lolly took the Pepide based one. (As well as several other ladies who post on this site.)

There is a link under the clinical trials area of this site where you can get to the U of W Tumor Group and find out about the differences.

For the Peptide one you have to be HLA - 2, and I was tested for that and was NOT 2 so could not even begin to qualify for that one.
