Metastatic colon cancer vaccine clinical trials.? |
I have read on the American Cancer Society website in an article dated 2001/04/27 about a trial vaccine that attacked the CEA coating of the cancer cell. I have just been diagnoised with secondary colon cancer in my liver and will have a resection. I am interested in finding information about whether there is a current clinical study going on but cannot gain entrance because I am not in the medical profession. If i can possibly find who/what then perhaps I can get my oncologist to follow up. Can anyone help me crack this info maze. Go to www.clinicaltrials.gov and type in colorectal cancer and you will get a list of ongoing clinical trials. They may not be enrolling patients with metastasis for a vaccine, but there are plenty of other trials going on. The good news is that the 2 most common regimens, FOLFOX plus Avastin and FOLFIRI plus Avastin have prolonged overall survival and progression-free survival. Also look into complementary/Chinese medicine. Good luck! I don't know about the trials, but I read that there are natural ways to cure cancer that drug companies and other parties don't want people to know about, b/c of how much money is made by docs and pharmacutical (sp?) companies. I know know if there are merits to these claims... http://www.vitaminb17.org http://www.bcstage4.com/id62.html... Hope you get better soon. http://www.cancer.gov/clinicaltrials/col... Dr John Marshall of the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center @ Georgetown in Washington, DC does a lot of research with colon cancer vaccines. I don't know him personally, but have heard him speak at conferences - he is wonderful. Here is a link to a clinical trial involving the vaccine. http://www.cancer.gov/clinicaltrials/gum...
