not for stage 4 fighters...but still...

"The trial, CELLVX-230, is a randomized, multicenter, open-label study of irradiated autologous cellular vaccine in men with high-risk prostate cancer post-radical prostatectomy. It will be conducted through a partnership with the Society of Urologic Oncology Clinical Trials Consortium (SUO-CTC), with Scott Eggener, MD (University of Chicago) as Principal Investigator. Patient recruitment will begin in March 2024, with a goal of up to 230 participants sourced from 21 pre-selected sites across the US."

Too bad that Stage 4 can’t be included!

not yet at least

I wonder if they would accept someone not yet at BCR, but on the way, or just at BCR when they start recruitment in March.

My guess is that they will recruit high risk patients right after their prostatectomy, so that the tumour samples to be processed and irradiated are "fresh".

I think we should create the "guinea pig right" :-) where a patient (guided by an oncologist) takes full responsibility in using a new treatment or even an established one but for a different cancer stage. This would speed up research as well. I know a few guys who would have used Pluvicto as first line with ADT when they were hormone sensitive.
