The Long Journey to a Breast Cancer Vaccine

Judy Fitzgerald

The Long Journey to a Breast Cancer Vaccine.  Why did it take ten years to get the funding for a preventive breast cancer vaccine?  I was outraged when I discovered in 2010 at the end of my breast cancer treatment that there was a Doctor in Cleveland,  Dr. Vincent Tuohy that had been perfecting a preventive breast cancer vaccine.

I became an advocate for Dr. Tuohy and now serve on the panel for the Phase I Clinical trial to finally bring this vaccine from Bench to Bedside.

Take a look at the long and painful journey to obtain the funding from the federal government and how a 2017 grant will result is a soon to being Phase I Clinical Trial.

Please read all about it on my website:  www.Sisters4Prevention.  There is link there to the listing on clinicaltrials.gov.  We will begin recruiting patients soon so stay tuned.  Just follow the link below and click on the button at the top.
