RandyW Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Am not sure on radiation on that Bucky but, If the vaccine does not work there should be chemos available I.E. most of them. THey use vaccine in early stage to see if it works stand alone with nothing else interfering. If it does not work you should be going back to reg Chemo. The thing is wioth trials the Oncologist do not want anything to interfere and catvhing disease early sdo there are no other treatments going on is critical. THe problem here is it is difficult to diagnose early and this brings up whole new topics to discuss. But In a nutshell if Vaccine does not work you should be bsck on regular chemo though. Not sure about the Pleura question or problem though so..... Hugs and PRayers always Randy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
