Trial Outcomes & Findings for Vaccine Therapy in Treating HLA-A2 Positive Patients With Melanoma (NCT NCT00003895)

NCT ID: NCT00003895

Last Updated: 2017-02-20

Results Overview

Frequency measures obtained from each assay will be transformed to (common) logs for purposes of analysis. Repeated measures analyses will be performed on longitudinal data to assess patients' immune response profiles over time. Comparability of assay methods will be assessed with correlation analyses, regression analyses, standard parametric and nonparametric tests, and agreement methods. Pre- and post-immunization T-cell immunity to g209-2M peptide, to HPV16E7 peptide, and to a negative control HLA-A2 HIV peptide (pol) were assessed using HLA-A2/peptide tetramer-specific binding analysis. Within-subject analyses were performed to determine differences between pre- and postimmunization responses to the g209 -2M and HPV peptides and to the negative control HIV peptide after completion of 6 months of vaccination. Pre- versus postimmunization response differences were used as criterion measures in between-group (among subjects) analyses.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 6 months

Population: Patients were randomly assigned to two different vaccination schedules: group A received vaccinations every 2 weeks for 6 months (13 total injections), and group B received vaccinations every 3 weeks for 6 months (nine total vaccinations).

Frequency measures obtained from each assay will be transformed to (common) logs for purposes of analysis. Repeated measures analyses will be performed on longitudinal data to assess patients' immune response profiles over time. Comparability of assay methods will be assessed with correlation analyses, regression analyses, standard parametric and nonparametric tests, and agreement methods. Pre- and post-immunization T-cell immunity to g209-2M peptide, to HPV16E7 peptide, and to a negative control HLA-A2 HIV peptide (pol) were assessed using HLA-A2/peptide tetramer-specific binding analysis. Within-subject analyses were performed to determine differences between pre- and postimmunization responses to the g209 -2M and HPV peptides and to the negative control HIV peptide after completion of 6 months of vaccination.
