23 years ago I entered a clinical trial at UCLA on a personalized vaccine developed for my cancer, non-hodgkins lymphoma. It was randomized which gave me concern, and you have to go through all the tests like having surgery to pull a lymph node out for the possibility of the vaccine, giving yourself self 3 daily injections for six months after your possible vaccine shot by the doctor each month. Extra bone marrow biopsies during treatment, still getting the standard of care of 6 months of chemo before the trial. Two years I relapsed, was unblinded and found out I did get the personalized vaccine. I was back to just a standard of care monoclonal antibody infusion this time for treatment. Several more years passed and ultimately the clinical trial was determined a failure as most are, but my oncologist was and still is that I have now had a miraculous 18 year remission. He said their is no way to ever know now, but subsequently the vaccine might have had some synergy with the later monoclonal antibody. He was intrigued. Then three years the prostate got me, and I also looked again into clinical trials.
