I am going to take information about the trials to my oncologists on the next visit. I hope that I can get in the trial.

U of W Vaccine Trials

Hello all-

I have been following this board for a little while, but this is my first post. I have just been accepted into the peptide based vaccine trial at the University of Washington and will be traveling out there next week for my first visit.

I welcome any experience that any of you have had with U of W and I will certainly keep you all posted on how the trial is going.

I'm so glad that I found this amazing group!

Regards-

Suzanne

Hi Suzanne, First of all...welcome to the board. I'm sorry you had to join us for obvious reasons but as you know by now it's a great group of woman & men. I'm glad you decided to jump in and post.

That's exciting that you were excepted in the vacine trial. I wish I could afford to travel right now because I would love to get involved in that trial also. Please keep us informed on how it's going.

Chelee
