Follow-up #19 was completed earlier this week. NED continues!

Since my last update, my former lab guru, Dr. Eric Tran, announced that he successfully treated a pancreatic cancer patient by engineering her T Cells to express the receptors that he found on my immune cells. She and I share the same HLA type (C:08*02) and mutation (G12D).

Exciting stuff!!!

Could def be disappointed

pfccr -

Good luck on your scans next week! We'll be thinking of you

It was good to see a post from you today. I was a bit worried when I saw the news about a tornado in Florida and didn't see any posts from you for about a week. I hope the bad weather didn't cause damage at your place.

Take care ...
