David - Thanks for the info.

But don't you want to include:

African-Americans 59%

in your calculation of US prevalence? -g-

More seriously, it will be interesting to see what surfaces in the approval process since they appear to have been not completely forthright.

The variation is due to trade vernacular. The broad category is defining patients with the HLA-A2 serotype also written as HLA-A2+ or maybe even sometimes HLA-2+ of which there are different alleles. HLA-1*0201 is one specific allele. Does this inclusion criteria have more to do with the gp100 vaccine than with ipilimumab?
