Cancer vaccines: what do we need to measure in clinical trials?
Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy has seen a tremendous number of failures and only few recent regulatory successes. This review is dedicated to evaluate remaining challenges in capturing clinical response with cancer vaccines. Definition of disease progression in context of clinical rather image-specific criteria and interpretation of efficacy in relation to delayed effect of cancer vaccines should be taken into account in the design of future of immunotherapy trials.
Keywords: cancer vaccines; endpoints; immune response; patient reported outcomes; progression free survival.
