Other endpoints
- {"endpoint_text":"- Cell product studies. In this exploratory objective, genomic studies will be performed by RNA-seq and open array on the advanced therapy drugs manufactured in the study (both autologous and allogeneic), and a correlation will be made with clinical and biological parameters and response, but they are not included in the explicit secondary variables, because they will also require subsequent validation.","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Exploratory genomic studies (RNA-seq and open array) on cell therapy products with correlation to clinical and biological response; results require subsequent validation."}
- {"endpoint_text":"- Biological studies to evaluate the immune system in the patient's blood and serum (days +7 and +30) As these are exploratory objectives, statistical analyses of correlations between the results of the biological variables and the clinical parameters will be carried out, but they are not included among the explicit secondary variables, because they will also require subsequent validation.","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Exploratory immune system assessments in blood and serum at days +7 and +30 with correlation analyses to clinical parameters; results are exploratory and require validation."}
