About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Gardasil in Human Papillomavirus Research The Mid-Adult Male Vaccine Study - The MAM STUDY

The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of the research study vaccine, Gardasil, in men ages 27-45 who have completed 4 years of observation in The Human Papillomavirus [HPV] infection in men (HIM) Study.

Read the detailed description

The MAM Study is a prospective pilot intervention trial to investigate patterns of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine immunogenicity in men, aged 27-45 years, in which the men will receive Gardasil. Gardasil was administered at 0, 2, and 6 months. Blood was drawn at 0 and 7 months to provide a quadrivalent HPV antibody serologic profile. Participants also completed surveys via computer-assisted interviews (CASI) at Day 1 and Month 7 to record sexual behavior.

Our overall goal is to test the efficacy of Gardasil to reduce HPV 6, 11, 16, 18 persistent infection among men at the external genital epithelium, anal canal, and oral cavity, and to reduce lesions caused by these HPV types at the external genital epithelium and anal canal. The purpose of this Phase II trial is to establish the immunogenicity of Gardasil among mid-adult men and to establish the infrastructure with which to build the larger Phase III trial in the future.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants Seropositive at Month 7

    Immune response was measured with a multiplex competitive Luminex immunoassay (anti-HPV-6, -11, -16, and -18 chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer (cLIA); Merck) at Pharmaceutical Product Development (PPD). Briefly, this assay simultaneously quantitates neutralizing antibodies to HPV 6, 11, 16, and 18 in 50 μL of serum. The seronegative study population at Day 1 (no detectable HPV antibody titers at Day 1) were to be categorized as seroconverted due to increase in titer levels for each vaccine component at Month 7.

    Measured: 7 Months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in Antibody Titers

    Change in antibody titers 1 month post-dose 3 of vaccine. For each vaccine component, the geometric mean titers (GMT) and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for antibody titers at each time-point (Day 1 and Month 7). For each participant, the difference in antibody titers between these 2 time-points (titers at Month 7 minus titers at Day 1) was calculated. The mean of antibody titer change and its 95% CI were calculated. Immune response was measured with a multiplex competitive Luminex immunoassay (anti-HPV-6, -11, -16, and -18 chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer (cLIA); Merck) at Pharmaceutical Product Development (PPD). Briefly, this assay simultaneously quantitates neutralizing antibodies to HPV 6, 11, 16, and 18 in 50 μL of serum. mMU/ml is an arbitrary unit of measure derived after comparing relative inhibition of mAb-PE binding to a pooled standard reference serum using a four-parameter logistic curve fit and correcting for dilution.

    Measured: Points: Day 1 and Month 7

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Gardasil in people with Human Papillomavirus, run by H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute at 2 sites in 2 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 2 inclusion and 7 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 16 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States, Mexico. 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. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 1 Jun 2015). 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?

Percentage of Participants Seropositive at Month 7 (time frame: 7 Months). 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 16 Sep 2021.
