Thanks for your reply Alan... I am watching the vaccine trials with great interest... and have contacted several companies... Elicio Therapeutics that uses a CAR-T infusion plus vaccine has decided to go into Pancreatic and Colorectal cancer initially... IntelliSTEM with Super Sentinel Cells technology has not committed to any particular cancers although they believe they can be effective against all...An Israeli company is using engineered CAR-T cells ...haven't made contact with them yet...

The Science is Coming...and it gives me ... HOPE !!!

Take care,
