    Toxicities beyond grade 2 were not observed. Seventy-five percent of patients developed augmented immunity to the AE37 vaccine and 65% to the unmodified AE36 peptide as detected in the IFN-gamma-based ELISPOT assay. Intracellular IFN-gamma analyses revealed that AE37 elicited both CD4(+) and CD8(+)...
