Whenever results were provided as "Mean Fluorescence Intensity (MFI)", the statistical outputs "BAMA response magnitude (MFI)" terminology is used instead of "concentrations/titres". Antigen IgG3 was assessed for all strains. Antigens IgG1, IgG2 and IgG4 were assessed only for C.1086C_V1_V2 Tags strain that was not part of any breadth panel. Due to low or infrequent response, or undetectable levels of response among the breadth panel strains, some additional strains, not part of the breadth panels, were also analyzed.

Whenever results were provided as "Mean Fluorescence Intensity (MFI)", the statistical outputs "BAMA response magnitude (MFI)" terminology is used instead of "concentrations/titres". The strains: 086C_D7gp120.avi/293F IgG, Con 6 gp120/B IgG, and gp120 (Clone W6.1D) IgG were not part of any breadth panel. Due to low or infrequent response, or undetectable levels of response among the breadth panel strains, some additional strains, not part of the breadth panels, were also analyzed.

To comply with BAMA methodology and terminology, the wording "BAMA response call status" was used instead of "seropositivity" in the analysis. Compared to baseline result (Day 0), a sample is called "positive" for a given analyte if the response magnitude is equal to or above (≥) the analyte specific cutoff from all baseline samples in the study (where the cutoff is the 95th percentile of the baseline response, or 100, whichever is higher) OR ≥3 times the response magnitude as compared to the sample specific baseline.Analysis was performed on the gp120 antigen (IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4) for the following vaccine HIV strains which were not part of any breadth panel: 1086C_D7gp120.avi/293F IgG, Con 6 gp120/B IgG, and gp120 (Clone W6.1D) IgG. Due to low or infrequent response, or undetectable levels of response among the breadth panel strains, some additional strains, not part of the breadth panels, were also analyzed.

Assessed cytokines include: cluster of differentiation-40 lingand (CD40-L), Interleukin-2 (IL2), Tumour Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α), Interferon-gamma (INF-γ), by Intracellular Cytokine Staining (ICS). CD4+ T-cells were expressed in CD4+ T-cells/million cells.

Vaccine response rates for HIV-1-specific CD4+ T cells expressing at least two markers among CD40L, IL-2, TNF-α and IFN-γ with responders were defined as subjects with: a 2-fold increase as compared to the cut-off (=354, limit of quantification [LOQ] of the assay), for subjects with pre-vaccination frequency below the cut-off, at Day 0, OR at least 2-fold increase as compared to pre-vaccination frequency, for subjects with pre-vaccination frequency above the cut-off.

Assessed cytokines include: CD40-L, IL2, TNF-α, INF-γ, by ICS. CD8+ T-cells were expressed in CD8+ T-cells/million cells/million cells.

Vaccine response rates for HIV-1-specific CD8+ T cells expressing at least two markers among CD40L, IL-2, TNF-α and IFN-γ with responders were defined as subjects with: a 2-fold increase as compared to the cut-off (=354, limit of quantification [LOQ] of the assay), for subjects with pre-vaccination frequency below the cut-off, at Day 0, OR at least 2-fold increase as compared to pre- vaccination frequency, for subjects with pre-vaccination frequency above the cut-off.

The C.1086C_V1_V2 Tags strain was not part of any breadth panel. Due to low or infrequent response, or undetectable levels of response among the breadth panel strains, some additional strains, not part of the breadth panels, were also analyzed.

Analysis was performed on the Per-Protocol cohort for immunogenicity which included all subjects from the Total cohort who met all eligibility criteria, and who presented a negative HIV-RNA test at Y14.
