I knew Flopper and the others would do their very best to confuse retail on this simple NIH statement. Nobody said L wasn't available in the UK, but what you left out is the government isn't willing to pay for it. When NIH makes a statement like that it obviously considers the ability for its citizens to afford it, you dope.

No matter how hard you try the UK doesn't revolve around little L. NIH made a statement about cancer vaccines being available in about five years, and they could care less if L has submitted something.


>>You’re an absolute clown to suggest DCVax-l is not available in the UK today.

>>You’re an even greater clown to suggest the MHRA has rejected the DCVax-l MAA and that they decided to tell the world through the Daily Mail.

Get help.

Flipper, it would seem to me that an mRNA vaccine that was intended to prevent the onset of cancer, or used on discovery of cancer prior to surgery could be beneficial, likewise once the cancer was detected DCVax-Direct could be effective prior to surgery. Once surgery occurs, I've got to believe that a vaccine that's made from that specific tumor would be more effective than an mRNA vaccine.

I'm certainly not an expert, but this would seem like common sense to me.

Frankly when my wife was determined to have breast cancer, over a quarter century ago, I was surprised at the time between discovery and surgery, it took months, and today it seems no different. I believe that treatment with DCVax-Direct could be initiated within weeks of discovery of an operable tumor, and should be injected into that tumor well before surgery. The greatest benefit of such treatment would hopefully get some anti-cancer action into the mets which left untreated can result in the cancer returning years, even decades later in multiple organs. If the mRNA vaccine could potentially do the same, perhaps both should be used.

If the mRNA vaccine is given as a preventative to cancers, like many other vaccines we all take, once a cancer occurs in a patient who's already had the vaccine, I don't know that more vaccine would have any effect whereas both DCVax-Direct and L post surgery should be effective. We know that by themselves they're not curative, but other therapeutics become more effective and lives are certainly being lengthened and at some point the cancer may be determined to be cured. I frankly don't know if all the longest living patients treated with DCVax-L are considered to be cured. It's been 10 years since I had stem cells for leukemia and I still return to City of Hope quarterly to determine I'm still in complete remission, I cannot consider myself cured as long as my Dr. still believes such testing is necessary.

I should note, my sister was thought cured by her oncologist until a body scan done by her new internist found tiny tumors in several places that ultimately proved fatal, it was roughly a decade after the initial cancer was treated. I don't believe the old sentiment that after 5 years cancer free your cured is currently considered the SOC for most cancers.
