Percentage of M72-specific CD4+ T Cells and CD8+ T Cells Exhibiting Cytokine Response With Background Subtracted
Blood samples were analyzed for M72-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells exhibiting cytokine response (IFN-gamma and/or IL-2) with background subtracted. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment (scheduled or unscheduled) prior to the first study vaccination.
Time frame: At Baseline, Day 57, and Day 390
Population: Per-Protocol for Cellular Immunogenicity Population comprises all participants in Per-Protocol population randomly selected to have immunogenicity assays performed. Only those participants with data available at specified timepoints has been presented.
