  1. a p-value: group compared to group vaccinated once 90, 60 or 30 days before tumor challenge
  2. * vaccination started 90 days before the injection of viable tumor cells; the vaccine was applied once (1×), twice (2×) or three times (3×) in 15 days interval
  3. ** vaccination started 60 days before the injection of viable tumor cells; the vaccine was applied once (1×), twice (2×) or three times (3×) in 15 days interval
  4. *** vaccination started 30 days before the injection of viable tumor cells; the vaccine was applied once (1×), twice (2×) or three times (3×) in 15 days interval, except for the last - third vaccination, which was performed 7 days after second vaccination
