Speaks loudly to your final point.....
Quoted from Laura Nuttall’s GoFundMe page:
“In addition, we're also looking at other treatments that are still in the experimental phase, specifically immunotherapy treatments.
DCVax is a groundbreaking new treatment which creates personalised immune therapy made from each patient's own dendritic cells.
Dendritic cells are a type of immune cell that function to help the body's immune system recognise and attack tumour cells.

The results of the initial trial is really positive and is extending the overall survival rate for people like Laura.
Unfortunately for us, the DCVax treatment has yet to be approved by NICE so we would need to fund the whole treatment for Laura ourselves, the cost of this will be an initial £150,000 and a maintenance cost of about £26,000 per year which is a huge amount of money for any family to try to find.”

this is not a bad overview of all the current immunotherapy research approaches for GBM

It actually looks like a very good overview —much appreciated.

I’ll reply to your other post soon. I’m going to follow the advice someone (sorry - can’t remember your handle or even find the post now) gave yesterday about taking time off the board and living life, at least for the rest of the day.

Enjoy your weekend!
