An already existing vaccine for breast cancer- at the Mayo Clinic?
Ok, when I read the article I thought "here we go, another miracle cancer cure that Google knows about yet somehow the Medical Oncology community dont k ow about".... Except that this is the Mayo Clinic, which is probably the most famous medical research institution in the world. Keith Knutson isnt a snake oil merchant. He is a very credible researcher. "But the fact is, Knutson said immunologists at Mayo already have two cancer vaccines against Triple Negative Breast Cancer and HER2 Positive Breast Cancer, respectively. " Is this real? Is there an actual vaccine? It is described as something to take after active treatment. I got in touch with the Mayo clinic and they sent me through a whole bunch of paperwork. https://www.forbes.com/sites/robinseatonjefferson/2019/10/11/mayo-breast-cancer-vaccine-could-be-available-in-less-than-a-decade/
Biphosphonates for early hormone positive BC
Hello everyone, Ive been chatting to some women overseas and it seems that the use of biphosphonate infusions for early hormone positive BC is becoming the norm, particularly in US and Canada. I’ve read some literature which seems to draw a conclusion that by using these meds which help lower osteoclasts activity thus preventing bone loss, it also disrupted the environment for bone mets to form.. therefore improve survival. Is anyone having this discussed with them or being used currently in Australia as preventative care? My onc said only approved for bone loss in non metastatic setting in Australia currently?
