Plasma was pooled from whole blood stimulations from all six patients in Cohort 1. Note that only peptides 1 to 92 were assessed for individual patients; peptides that were deemed active for IL‐2, IFN‐γ, or IL‐10, but were not reassessed with individual plasmas include: 95 (QQQEEQILEQILQQ), 105 (TYQLVQQLCCEQLW), 111 (QEQPLSEVSFEQPQ), 120 (ELPQFEEIRNLALE), 124 (PQPF‐Cit‐PQQPYPQSQ), 131 (PEQS‐Cit‐CQAIHNVVH), 139 (QQQQQQQQQ‐hCit‐QQQQ), 142 (QPELPYPQPQPF‐Cit‐P), 144 (PQPF‐Cit‐PEQPYPQSQ).
