Fay A. Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 For those of you are having to have fluid drained from your lung/pleura you should know that the GVAX trial can also make the vaccine if there are cancer cells in the fluid removed from you. The number to call for information is (866)542-8509. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAnn Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 I knew that people w/malignant pleural effusions (like me) were candidates for the GVAX trial. My question is can you do this through your regular oncologist. I plan on asking mine about it next Wednesday when I see him, but just wondering if any of you may know if you have to actually go to the facility conducting the trial? Thanks, TAnn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
