Number of Patients With Dose-limiting Toxicity (Phase I) |
The dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) were defined as follows: •An Antigen-Specific Cancer Immunotherapeutic (ASCI) related or possibly ASCI related grade 3 or higher toxicity. Grade 3 myalgia, arthralgia, headache, fever, rigors/chills and fatigue (including lethargy, malaise and asthenia) persisting for 48 hours despite therapy. •An ASCI related or possibly ASCI related grade 2 or higher allergic reaction occurring within 24 hours following the ASCI administration. •An ASCI related or possibly ASCI related decrease in renal function, with a creatinine clearance lower than (<) 40 milliliters per minute (mL/min). •An ASCI-related or possibly ASCI-related symptomatic and confirmed adrenal insufficiency. The grading used was defined according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0: Grade 3 DLT = severe DLT. Related = DLT considered by investigator as possibly related to product administration. |

Percentage of Patients With Anti-PReferentially Expressed Antigen of MElanoma (Anti-PRAME) Humoral Immune Response (Phase I) |
A seronegative/seropositive patient for anti-PRAME antibodies was a patient with antibody concentration lower (<)/ higher than or equal to (=) cut-off level. Humoral immune response was defined as a) if baseline concentration < cut-off level: post treatment concentration = cut-off level, or b) if baseline concentration = cut-off level: post treatment concentration at least twice the baseline value. Cut-off values for seropositivity (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay [ELISA]) were 12 ELISA Units per milliliter (EL.U/mL). |

Number of Patients With Best Overall Response to Study Treatment (Phase II) |
The best overall response is the best response recorded from the start of the treatment until disease progression (taking as reference for progressive disease the smallest measurements recorded since the treatment started). In general the patient's best response assignment depended on the achievement of both measurement and confirmation criteria. The best overall response includes the complete response (CR) defined as disappearance of all targeted/non-targeted lesions and partial response (PR) defined as at least 30% decrease in the sum of longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD and persistence of one or more non-targeted lesion(s). |

Number of Patients With Any Unsolicited Adverse Events (AEs), by Maximum Grading |
An unsolicited AE covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination. The grading to be used by the investigators for the assessment of the severity of adverse events (AEs) was defined as the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), Version 4.0 (Grade 1 = mild; Grade 2 = moderate; Grade 3 = severe or medically significant; Grade 4 = life-threatening; Grade 5 = death related to AE). Adverse Events were coded to the preferred term (PT) level by means of the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). |

Cellular response was defined as: Geometric Mean Response (GMR) above the 2.68 cut-off value and at least a four-fold increase of PRAME- specific Cluster of Differentiation (CD) 4/8 T-cells. Considering that 2 studies failed to demonstrate clinical efficacy of recombinant protein based cancer vaccines, GSK decided in 2014 to stop the development and to stop recruitment in all the ongoing clinical studies. The decision was made to end the study (i.e., stopping patient enrollment, follow-ups, sample collection and analysis of samples for research purposes). Patients still on treatment at the time of the protocol amendment were offered to continue the administration of the study treatment until the last dose or until recurrence, whichever came first, or until the patient or the investigator decided to stop the study treatment. No further active protocol visit/contact was performed except for the concluding visit at Week 199, 30 days after the last treatment administration. |

A seropositive patient was a patient whose anti-PRAME antibody concentration was greater than or equal to (=) the assay cut-off value of 12 ELISA units per milliliter (EL.U/mL). A seronegative patient was defined as a patient whose pre-treatment antibody concentration was below (<) the cut-off value. An anti-PRAME antibody responder was defined as: For a seronegative patient: a post-treatment antibody concentration = the cut-off value; For a seropositive patient: a post-treatment antibody concentration = twice the pre-treatment antibody concentration. |

Number of Patients With Stable Disease (SD), Progressive Disease (PD), Mixed Response (MR) (Phase I & II) |
Tumor response was assessed by the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST), where stable disease for target lesions refers to neither enough shrinkage to qualify for complete response nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease taking as references the smallest sum longest diameter (LD) since the treatment started. For non-targeted lesions it refers to persistence of one or more non-target lesions. Progressive disease is related to a clear increase of diameters of lesions taking as references the smallest diameters recorded since the treatment started OR the appearance of one or more new lesions OR both of these. |

Number of Patients With Best Overall Response, Including Mixed Response (MxR) and Slow Progressive Disease (SPD) Criteria (Phase I & II) |
Tumor response was assessed by the RECIST criteria, where SD for target lesions refers to neither enough shrinkage to qualify for CR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD taking as references the smallest sum longest diameter (LD) since the treatment started. For non-targeted lesions it refers to persistence of one or more nom-target lesions. Progressive disease is related to a clear increase of diameters of lesions taking as references the smallest diameters recorded since the treatment started OR the appearance of one or more new lesions OR both of these. Mixed response is defined as at least 30% decrease in the LD occurring in at least one target lesion recorded and measured at baseline. Such response occurring in otherwise SD or PD status of the LD of target lesions were classified as "SD with target lesion regression" or "PD with target lesion regression", respectively. New lesion(s) in otherwise PR status of the LD of target lesions were "PR with new lesion". |
