Trial Outcomes & Findings for Vaccine Therapy With Tumor Specific Mutated VHL Peptides in Adult Cancer Patients With Renal Cell Carcinoma (NCT NCT00001703)

NCT ID: NCT00001703

Last Updated: 2014-07-25

Results Overview

The immunological response was assessed by in-vitro T cell cytokine production enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot (ELISPOT). From each patients, post-vaccination peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were compared to pre-vaccination as a baseline. A positive ELISPOT result for the patients was defined as a total number of experimental spots in the post-vaccination sample of more than twofold above the total spots in the pre-vaccination sample.
