E2696 | R Documentation |
A data set from the ECOG E2696 trial comparing the combination of the GM2-KLH/QS-21 (GMK) vaccine and high-dose interferon alfa-2b (IFN) therapy with the GMK vaccine alone in resected high-risk melanoma patients. The study results were described in Kirkwood et al. (2001) doi:10.1200/JCO.2001.19.5.1430. This data set only includes patients without nodal metastasis.
