BREAST CANCER VACCINE NEWS
That has been Dr. Czerniecki’s idea from the beginning. It made so much sense to me when I heard it. As such Pennies in Action came into being.
The results in mice have got us all excited. Well the research at University of Pennsylvania under the leadership of Dr. Czerniecki MD, PHD has been in Human trial for more than 6 years and is now in phase II with amazing results.
It also promises to have lager and wider implications down the line.
StAY TUNED TO HEAR ABOUT THE EXCITING RESULTS IN THE NEAR FUTURE…
In the meantime let everybody know about the trial so anybody diagnosed with DCIS HER2/neu should check into it as a very promising and viable option.
For info go on www.penniesinaction.org
As soon as the funding is secured the trial for invasive breast cancer will start…
Please help to make this come true asap by donating to the cause…
After seeing the amazing results in this clinical trial I cannot wait to get my vaccine, but I like so many women have to wait for the new trial since I had invasive breast cancer…..(I did not qualify for the previous trials . I was not as lucky as my friend Shelley Dodt, who had 6 shots in 6 weeks and her cancer was gone as a participant in the phase II trial at the University of Penn for DCIS HER2/neu)
Donating is easy by clicking on the widget on the right side of this page. You can use paypal or any major credit card. Thank you so much and god bless. No one in my family ever had cancer and I had 2 kinds, so no one is save. We the people for the people need to get together and win this war of suffering...!!!!!

The thing every woman needs and wants is a life without the threat of breast cancer….
I will not stop till the Mothers Day will come where this is the case.
I want to thank all the donors and volunteers that have joined us so far but please keep the tsunami growing!!!!
Right now we need patients to participate in the 2nd trial so we meet the FDA criteria and can make this vaccine available to all.
Invasive and hormone based breast cancer is next on the agenda .
Lets recruit all the women to join in this fight and push breast cancer over the edge and out of our lives forever!!!!!

Dear Colleagues, Clients, Professionals, Parents, Athletes, Breast Cancer Patients, Breast Cancer Survivors and Friends;
We are looking for Breast cancer Patients that have been diagnosed with DCIS HER- 2/ NEU for the FREE Trial Vaccine at the University of Pennsylvania!
If you have been diagnosed, make sure you find out if you are HER - 2 - request this additional test from your doctor!
The vaccine has been successful in all cases, and there are some additional trial patients needed to prove the case.
A STEP AHEAD
For Penn Surgery, this evolving research, just entering Phase II, may be its most promising discovery yet.
It's NOT a drug - it uses your own immune response to fight and prevent breast cancer
It's a prevention of breast cancer and therapy for breast cancer patients
This treatment will be developed for invasive breast cancer as well!
To find out if you qualify for the FREE trial, please, contact Mrs. Uschi Keszler at: Uschi Keszler
About Dr. Brian Czerniecki:
Dr. Czerniecki holds an advanced degree in Immunology and is the Surgical Director of the Immunotherapy Program for the Abramson Cancer Center investigating the role of the immune system in the prevention and treatment of patients with breast cancer. He has been supported by the American Cancer Society, the Susan B Komen Foundation, and the National Cancer Institute to develop vaccines for the treatment of early breast cancer. There are currently ongoing clinical trials in these areas that Dr. Czerniecki has developed including the first vaccine for the treatment of patients with DCIS. This work is being developed for patients with invasive breast cancer as well. He has been recognized by the NCI as an expert in management of DCIS and has served on several NIH panels for developing recommendations for the treatment of DCIS.

Cancer for Christmas: Making the Most of a Daunting Gift
Dr. Brian Czerniecki at the University of Pennsylvania has developed an immune-therapy treatment for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) HER-2/neu. Yes, kids, that’s a vaccine, as well as treatment for DCIS HER-2/neu. The immune-therapy/vaccine has been in limited trials at... UPenn since 2004. An Oncolink interview with Dr. Czerniecki about the first clinical trial is here. A second trial is still ongoing – if you or anyone you know has been diagnosed with DCIS HER-2/neu, visit this link to find out how they might participate in the trial. Here’s a video of Dr. Czerniecki talking about his work: The really exciting part of this isn’t just the possibility of ending HER-2/neu breast cancer. It’s that HER proteins are the bad guys in many types of aggressive cancer: ovarian, stomach, and uterine. Dr. Czerniecki and his team are working on immune therapy for hormone-positive breast cancer (the type I had), and I plan on being near the front of the line when it’s available. Czerniecki might be the Jonas Salk of the 21st century, partly because he doesn’t want to partner with drug companies to fund his FDA trial. The Pennies In Action website gives information on how to help fund the trial. Know any gazillionaires with a cancer history in their family? Ask them if a $1M investment (or more) would be worth it to them…

THIS VACCINE WORKS !!!!!!!!!!!
Last Friday at the Pennies in Action event “ Showers of Hope”
Karen Berner a recipient of Dr. Czerniecki’s breast cancer vaccine (currently in the 2nd phase trial )announced:
“ 3 years ago I got 8 shots in 4 weeks for DCIS HER2/neu breast-cancer.
I am still cancer free. THIS VACCINE WORKS. !!!”
There was a huge round of applause. We need to get the message out, so we can get the necessary funding to finish this trial and help millions of women!!!!!!
You can donate at www.penniesinaction.org
Thank you so much and tell people about it… there are still spots available in the 2nd phase of the trial.

Way to go Corey...
My grandson Corey had his confirmation this week. He needed to chose his confirmation name .
He chose as his name Maurice.
I asked him; “ why Maurice”
He said : “You know Omi Maurice is the patron Saint of the soldiers and many of them need a lot of prayers”.
I was truly touched by this, and very proud of him, especially since our soldiers are another cause that is close to my heart.
