Limitations and caveats
Enrollment was closed earlier than expected due to industry sponsor's prioritization of other programs, the termination of Varliumab development, and Coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) related challenges during the period of enrollment. Appropriate reagents were not available for the CD4+ outcome measure. Due to the small number of participants, the biological/immunological evaluations are insufficiently powered to provide meaningful statistical significance.

Registered outcomes3

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryProportion of Participants Experiencing Regimen Limiting Toxicity (RLT)up to 2 years
The proportion of participants experiencing and RLT defined as an adverse event judged to be possibly, probably or definitely associated with treatment that requires participants to be taken off study and no further injections will be given will be reported.
PrimaryMean Percentage of CD8+ T-cell Responses in Pre- and Post-vaccine Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC)Up to 2 years
The expansion of IMA950-reactive CD8+ T cell frequencies over post-vaccine periods was assessed by calculating the mean percentage of total IMA950 tetramer-positive CD8+ T cell per available post-vaccine time point. CD8+ T-cell response to the IMA950-epitope is defined to be positive when the percentage of tetramer-positive CD8+ T cells showed a four-fold or higher increase within at least one-time point in the post-vaccine phase relative to the corresponding percentage at the pre-vaccine.
PrimaryMean Percentage of CD4+ T-cell Responses in Pre- and Post-vaccine PBMCUp to 2 years
The expansion of IMA950-reactive CD4+ T cell frequencies over post-vaccine periods was assessed by calculating the mean percentage of total IMA950 tetramer-positive CD4+ T cell per available post-vaccine time point. CD4+ T-cell response to the IMA950-epitope is defined to be positive when the percentage of tetramer-positive CD4+ T cells showed a four-fold or higher increase within at least one-time point in the post-vaccine phase relative to the corresponding percentage at the pre-vaccine.
