About this study

Official title: Long Term Immunogenicity of Quadrivalent Human Papillomavirus Vaccine (Gardasil®)in HIV-infected Adolescents and Young Adults vs. Healthy Adolescents and Young Adults: Non-randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

What is being measured

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

  1. type specific antibody titers for HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18 at one month after completion of HPV vaccine series (T3) in HIV infected subjects vs. healthy subjects

    Immunogenicity of quadrivalent human papillomavirus vaccine (Gardasil®) will be assessed by evaluation of type-specific antibody development for HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18 from seronegative status at baseline (T0) to seropositive status at one month after the completion of HPV vaccine series (T3), compared with the same immunogenicity testings performed in healthy subjects matched for sex and age.

    Measured: one month +/- 10 days after 3° vaccine dose

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. antibody HPV titers to types 6, 11, 16 and 18, one month after the first two vaccination series (T1 and T2) in HIV-infected subjects vs healthy subjects

    Antibody titers for HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18 will be evaluated one month after the first (T1) and second (T2) vaccination dose in HIV-infected adolescents and young adults compared with the same immunological testings in healthy adolescents and young adults.

    Measured: one month +/- 10 days after 1°vaccine dose and month+/- 10 days after 2° vaccine dose

  2. antibody titers to HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18 at month 12(T4)and 18 (T5)from baseline (T0).

    To assess long-term immunogenicity of quadrivalent human papillomavirus vaccine (Gardasil® in HIV-infected and healthy subjects by evaluation of persistence of HPV antibody titers to types 6, 11, 16 and 18 at month 12 (T4) and 18(T5) from baseline (T0).

    Measured: 12 months +/- 10 days and 18 months +/-10 days from baseline

  3. local and systemic adverse events

    Safety and tolerability of three doses of quadrivalent human papillomavirus vaccine (Gardasil ®) in HIV-infected and healthy subjects will be assessed by evaluating the occurrence and severity of local and systemic adverse events during the 7 days after each vaccination dose.

    Measured: 7 days after each vaccination dose

  4. HIV viral load and lymphocyte CD4+ count

    Longitudinal monitoring of HIV-viral load and lymphocyte CD4+ count will be conducted in HIV-infected subjects from baseline (T0), throughout the study: one month after each vaccination dose (T1, T2, T3) and at month 12 and 18 from baseline (T4, T5).

    Measured: baseline (T0), one month after each vaccination dose (T1, T2 and T3) and at month 12 (T4) and 18 (T5) from baseline.

  5. lymphoproliferative responses, cytokine production and immunophenotype analysis of lymphocyte subpopulations

    To evaluate in a subgroup of subjects (20 HIV-infected and 20 healthy) the following immunological parameters at baseline and at 1 month after 1° vaccination dose (T1) and at 1 month after 3° vaccination dose (T3):

    lymphoproliferative responses to HPV-16 L1 from PBMCs in peripheral blood

    Immunophenotype analysis of lymphocyte subpopulations in peripheral blood

    Cytokine production from peripheral lymphocyte subpopulations at baseline and after stimulation with HPV-16 recombinant protein L1.

    Measured: baseline (T0), one month after 1° vaccination dose (T1) and one month after 3° vaccination dose (T3).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Quadrivalent Human Papillomavirus (6, 11, 16 and 18) vaccine (Gardasil ®) in people with HPV and HIV, run by University of Milan at 1 site in Italy.

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 10 inclusion and 15 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jan 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Italy. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Gian Vincenzo Zuccotti, Head Paediatric Department (0039/02/39042253, gianvincenzo.zuccotti@unimi.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

type specific antibody titers for HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18 at one month after completion of HPV vaccine series (T3) in HIV infected subjects vs. healthy subjects (time frame: one month +/- 10 days after 3° vaccine dose). 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 19 Jan 2012.
