ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Without Recurrence (Recurrence-free Survival (RFS)) With Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) + PANVAC Compared With BCG Alone at 6 and 12 MonthsAssessed from start of therapy to 6 and 12 months following therapy
RFS is defined as the time from the start of intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (TICE BCG) therapy (week 3) until disease recurrence or death due to any cause in each arm. Recurrence is suspected and/or determined by urine cytology and/or cystoscopic exam and then confirmed pathologically after a transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). Positive cytology in the absence of pathologic confirmation is not considered to be a recurrence.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Without Progression (Progression-Free Survival (PFS)) at 6 and 12 MonthsAssessed from start of therapy to 6 and 12 months following therapy
PFS is the duration of time from start of TICE BCG therapy (week 3) to time of progression or death due to any cause in each study arm, whichever occurs first. Progression is defined as upstaging from a lower stage to a higher stage (e.g., Ta to T1 or T1 to T2-4; or any N+ or M+ in these high grade tumors.).TNM Classification in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer: Ta = Non-invasive papillary carcinoma; T1 = Tumor invades the subepithelial connective tissue; T2-4 = size of primary tumor; N+ or M+ = lymph node involvement and metastasis.
SecondaryTime to RecurrenceWeek 3 until recurrence or 12 months (whichever occurred first)
TTR is the duration of time measured from the start of TICE BCG therapy (week 3) until recurrence is noted. Recurrence is suspected and/or determined by urine cytology and/or cystoscopic exam and then confirmed pathologically after a TURBT. Positive cytology in the absence of pathologic confirmation is not considered to be a recurrence.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Serious and Non-Serious Adverse Events
Adverse events were assessed from the date treatment consent was signed to the date off study. Approximately 50 months and 12 days for BCG + PANVAC Arm/Group, and 43 months and 12 days for BCG Alone Arm/Group.
Serious and non-serious adverse events were assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria in Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.0). A non-serious adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence. A serious adverse event is an adverse event or suspected adverse reaction that results in death, a life-threatening adverse drug experience, hospitalization, disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, congenital anomaly/birth defect or important medical events that jeopardize the patient or subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the previous outcomes mentioned.
SecondaryOverall Survival (OS)up to 50 monthsOS is defined as the time from treatment start date until date of death or date last known alive.
