Hi P-Bear, No, there's no affiliation between the two. I've just recently seen a couple of articles discussing Pramod Srivastava's science at Antigenics and posted it becuse it seems to be interesting work in the same field. I thought they were in NY, but maybe not??? What sort of a job was the ad for? In short, I don't think they're exactly competitors. Stressgen among other things, has as it's most advanced project a fusion protein comprising a stress protein and a cancer antigen. I think this is to be used in a cervical cancer therapeutic vaccine first. I remember reading somewhere that they should give details about the first human trials in November, but this was a couple of months ago. Antigenics last reported on a "customized" vaccine, which is based on the idea that you can isolate stress proteins from a person's tumor, have associated with them the entire anigenic repertoire of that particular tumor, and then treat the person with this purified HSP mix. I gotta do some more reading as soon as I have time. I've seen a couple of good articles on the subject and I'll post them if I can dig 'em up again. later
