Does anyone k is anything about a trial called AST-VAC2?
been to see the oncologist today and chemotherapy not working, they have suggested the above trial and I was wondering if anyone knows anything about it?
thanks
This trial is by Cancer Research, it has been open since, 11/05/2018 Recruitment ends, 30/06/2021.
A trial of a vaccine called AST-VAC2 for non small cell lung cancer.
This is Cancer Research UK trial number CRUKD/17/003.
Hi Jessicadog I do not know anything about the trial, but just did a quick search for it, just search, .Cancer research Trial AST-VAC2
All the best
Thank you for that, I shall look at it. They have given me some information and I am seeing the oncologist again next week.
knocked sideways by the news that my treatment isn’t working, that’s the third one!
oh well, fingers crossed for this!
Thanks again x
Hi Jessicadog, I have not heard of this trial, but want to wish you lots of luck. X
Hi Chellesimo
Thank you, I have everything crossed! Xxx
Hi Jessica sorry to hear that three types of treatment have not worked. I do hope you find one that works.
And best of luck with this trial.
Thank you x
well the trial is no go! I have Crohn’s disease which is an auto immune thing and if you have that you can’t do the trial. Have to have more cyberknife treatment too, but I count myself lucky that I can have this. Appointment with the oncologist next week to see if they have found anything else that might be suitable!
