BTW Maia, wanted to thank you. I flew up to Pittsburgh yesterday and right now about to walk over for my final vaccination. I am in arm 6 getting the high dose of both INO-1400 + INO-9012. The electroporation sucks, but other than that, no side effects and god-willing, it works and I don't get cancer again! I may owe you my life! :D

Oh, you're so kind!
I hope with all my heart that it works. You really wanted 'something else', when taking chemo was not possible because the DPD deficiency. This seems a remarkable opportunity :)
