Depicted are patients who received 300 ng/kg or more IL-12 and were evaluable for tumor response. Change in CD4 cell count is calculated from the time of entry until the time that patients achieved a tumor response (partial response, progressive disease, or stable disease). Patients with stable disease are assessed at the time they left the study. Patients who went on to develop a complete response are assessed at the time of their first partial response.
