About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter, Biphasic, Controlled With GARDASIL™ Dose-Escalation Study of Octavalent Human Papillomavirus (HPV) L1 Virus-Like Particle (VLP) Vaccine Adjuvanted With Amorphous Aluminum Hydroxyphosphate Sulfate (AAHS) and ISCOMATRIX™ (IMX)

This study will examine the safety and tolerability of octavalent Human Papillomavirus (HPV) L1 Virus-Like Particle (VLP) vaccine formulated with amorphous aluminum hydroxysulfate (AAHS) and ISCOMATRIX™ (IMX). Reviews of safety and tolerability will be used to select the dose(s) of IMX for further studies of the octavalent HPV L1 VLP vaccine.

Read the detailed description

The study was performed in 2 staggered phases, Phase A and Phase B. In Phase A, participants were randomized to qHPV, Octavalent HPV with 15 mcg IMX/AAHS, or Octavalent HPV with 30 mcg IMX/AAHS. After the safety for Phase A was reviewed, Phase B was initiated. In Phase B, participants were randomized to qHPV, Octavalent HPV with 60 mcg IMX/AAHS or Octavalent HPV with 120 mcg IMX/AAHS.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) to Each of the HPV Types Contained in the Vaccine for Phase A

    The quadrivalent HPV (GARDASIL™) vaccine has types 6, 11, 16, 18, and the octavalent HPV has types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 45, 52, and 58. Serum antibody titres to the HPV type were obtained using a competitive Luminex immunoassay (cLIA) after vaccination with GARDASIL™ or the octavalent HPV vaccine. GMTs were calculated and are reported as the antibody concentration in milli-Merck Units per milliliter (mMU/mL) of neutralizing monoclonal antibody equivalent.

    Measured: 4 weeks postdose 3 (Phase A)

  2. Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) to Each of the HPV Types Contained in the Vaccine for Phase B

    The quadrivalent HPV (GARDASIL™) vaccine has types 6, 11, 16, 18, and the octavalent HPV has types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 45, 52, and 58. Serum antibody titres to the HPV type were obtained using cLIA after vaccination with GARDASIL™ or the octavalent HPV vaccine. GMTs were calculated and are reported as the antibody concentration in milli-Merck Units per milliliter (mMU/mL) of neutralizing monoclonal antibody equivalent.

    Measured: 4 weeks postdose 3 (Phase B)

  3. Number of Participants Who Seroconverted to Each of the HPV Types Contained in the Vaccine During Phase A

    A vaccinated participant was considered seropositive for a given HPV type if her serum antibody titer by cLIA for the HPV type was greater than the serostatus cutoff. The serostatus cutoffs for HPV Types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 45, 52, and 58 were 20, 20, 20, 20, 16, 16, 20, and 16 mMU/mL, respectively.

    Measured: 4 weeks postdose 3 (Phase A)

  4. Number of Participants Who Seroconverted to Each of the HPV Types Contained in the Vaccine During Phase B

    A vaccinated participant was considered seropositive for a given HPV type if her serum antibody titer by cLIA for the HPV type was greater than the serostatus cutoff. The serostatus cutoffs for HPV Types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 45, 52, and 58 were 20, 20, 20, 20, 16, 16, 20, and 16 mMU/mL, respectively.

    Measured: 4 weeks postdose 3 (Phase B)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Octavalent HPV with 15 mcg IMX / AAHS, Octavalent HPV with 30 mcg IMX / AAHS and Octavalent HPV with 60 mcg IMX / AAHS in people with Human Papilloma Virus and Cervical Cancer, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Jun 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) to Each of the HPV Types Contained in the Vaccine for Phase A (time frame: 4 weeks postdose 3 (Phase A)). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Feb 2016.
