What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants with Histopathological Regression of Cervical Lesions to CIN 1 or Less as a Measure of Efficacy.

    The number of participants with histopathologically confirmed CIN2/3 or CIN 3 associated with HPV16 or HPV18 whose cervical lesions regress to CIN 1 or less at the 36 week visit.

    Measured: 36 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Participants with Virologically-proven Clearance of HPV 16 or 18 in Combination with Histopathological Regression of Cervical Lesions to CIN 1 or Less as a Secondary Measure of Efficacy

    The number of participants with histopathologically confirmed CIN2/3 or CIN 3 associated with HPV16 or HPV18 whose cervical lesions regress to CIN 1 or less and have virologically-proven clearance of HPV16 or HPV18 at the 36 week visit.

    Measured: 36 Weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing VGX 3100 and CELLECTRA™-5P in people with Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia, run by Inovio Pharmaceuticals at 43 sites in 9 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 14 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 7 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 43 sites in United States, India, Canada, Estonia, Georgia and 4 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Number of Participants with Histopathological Regression of Cervical Lesions to CIN 1 or Less as a Measure of Efficacy. (time frame: 36 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01304524, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 7 Sep 2018.
