Vaccine for non--small cell lung cancer

Below is a link for the trial of BLP25 Lipossomal vaccine (Stimuvax) for non-small cell lung cancer

http://www.cancerhelp.org.uk/help/default.asp?page=11226

I posted this on my website back in April and at the time the trials had not started.
I see that on the site it says they have now begun. It will recruit about 1,300 people with stage 3 non-small cell lung cancer from various countries around the world. BLP25 is a new and experimental, and is not licensed as a treatment yet. It is not currently available outside of a clinical trial. An international phase 3 trial is now open in a number of countries. While this trial is recruiting patients in the UK. It doesn’t look like it is available for Mesothelioma at the moment but I would like to find more information about it.
If anyone finds anything about this trial, please let me know and I will post it here.
