Antigen-specific memory T cell response
To quantify antigen-specific memory T cell response to sipuleucel-T and ipilimumab in combination.
Time frame: After last sipuleucel-T and last ipilimumab, and follow-up period, an expected average of 15 months
Antigen-specific T cell proliferation to PA2024, PAP and PHA
To quantify Antigen-specific T cell proliferation to PA2024, PAP and PHA when sipuleucel-T and ipilimumab are given in combination. * PA2024 is a recombinant protein * PAP: Prostatic acid phosphatase * PHA: Phytohaemagglutinin, an assay control
Time frame: After last sipuleucel-T and last ipilimumab, and follow-up period, an expected average of 15 months
Antibody responses against PA2024 and PAP
To quantify antibody responses against PA2024 and PAP. * PA2024 is a recombinant protein * PAP: Prostatic acid phosphatase
Time frame: After last sipuleucel-T and last ipilimumab, and the follow-up period, an expected average of 15 months
Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) doubling time
To measure changes in PSA doubling time following treatment with sipuleucel-T and ipilimumab
Time frame: Duration of the study, an expected average of 18 months
Time to PSA progression
To quantify time to PSA progression after treatment with sipuleucel-T and ipilimumab
Time frame: Duration of the study, an expected average of 18 months
Time to salvage therapy
To quantify time to salvage therapy after treatment with sipuleucel-T and ipilimumab
Time frame: Duration of the study, an expected average of 18 months
