Could this be why this is a clinical trial? Data is collected and analyzed.
Ant...is that short for antsy? Not all drugs work for everyone. This drug didn't work for you and won't work for a lot of people. That's why the FDA requires that medications be tested. I don't think anyone will know those answers at this point.

So Tim,
Do I understand you correctly that you will no longer have procurements and vaccinations via Opexa and that they are casting you and your study group out to sea to fend for yourselves?
Mike
About a million thousand years ago in the history of these threads, Tim informed us that after a certain amount of time with regular Tovaxin vaccinations, he/we will eventually get to a stage that we graduate to periodic "boosters."

I have a BIG mouth, but I'll bet you've never seen me so quiet for that very reason!!
Don't stay quiet, Bob. Ever. For any reason.

I retired from posting several months ago. I have answered numerous email, but I would need to visit and read the posting daily to keep up with all of the different theories.
The people in the IIb trial are now in a one year extension study. I assume it will be renewed after that as long as the company has money. As for me, my study is being closed out at the end of the year. I received my last dose of vaccine in July, and yes, I didn't have any injection site reaction.
So those of you that think my father is/was CEO or that my family owns a large share of the company are mistaken. My family helped fund the original company and my father did serve on the board of directors for a short time.
The vaccine worked for me. I guess I will see how long the protective effect last, and those of you that keep saying they were hoping for results like Tim, need to read results will vary.

I have come out of retirement only to say goodbye and wish everyone the best in the extension study.
So long there. Kiddo. I'll miss you. Because of Ike's interference, my protocol has been delayed. So I have no idea what I'm in for on Visit One.
Regardless, though--meaning that if I was on placebo and am cleared to continue/on the gunk and did well according to protocol rules/ on the gunk and did NOT do well and therefore might be dismissed--I'm glad to have taken part and glad of the learning experience.
It's been especially nice because so many terrific people have been along for the ride with me--and I owe this remarkable experience, Tim, to you.
Many, many thanks and the very best of luck,
Jane

Good luck Tim! It's been a distinct pleasure "knowing" you!
