About this study

Official title: A Registry-Based Extension of Protocol V503-001 in Countries With Centralized Cervical Cancer Screening Infrastructures to Evaluate the Long-Term Effectiveness, Immunogenicity, and Safety of Multivalent Human Papillomavirus (HPV) L1 Virus-Like Particle (VLP) Vaccine as Administered to 16- to 26- Year-Old Women

Protocol V503-021 is a long-term follow-up study of the V503-001 base study (NCT00543543) to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and long-term effectiveness of V503 vaccine in preventing cervical cancer and related precancers caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) types 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58. Because of the high retention of V503-001 participants from the Nordic countries, and the highly efficient screening and surveillance system there, study V503-021 will evaluate only participants from V503-001 sites in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. The hypothesis is that V503 vaccine will remain effective for at least 30 years after the start of vaccination.

Being tested
V503, GARDASIL
Medical subject headings
Uterine Cervical Neoplasms, Vulvar Neoplasms, Vaginal Neoplasms, Condylomata Acuminata, Papillomavirus Infections

Study groups in NCT02653118
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Cohort 1: V503 in the Base StudyParticipants received the selected dose formulation of V503 (0.5 mL in a 3-dose regimen) from a Denmark, Norway, or Sweden site in the base study (V503-001, NCT00543543). No study vaccination will be administered in study V503-021.
Receives: Biological: V503
Cohort 2: GARDASIL in the Base StudyParticipants received GARDASIL (0.5 mL in a 3-dose regimen) from a Denmark, Norway, or Sweden site in the base study (V503-001, NCT00543543) and were offered the selected dose formulation of V503 (0.5 mL in a 3-dose regimen) at the conclusion of the base study. V503 vaccination was voluntary and not a condition for inclusion in Cohort 2. No study vaccination will be administered in study V503-021.
Receives: Biological: V503; Biological: GARDASIL

What is being measured

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

  1. Combined Incidence of HPV Type 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, or 58-related Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) Grades 2 or 3, Adenocarcinoma In Situ (AIS), and Cervical Cancer in Cohort 1

    Measured: Up to 30 years after vaccination in V503-001 base study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervical Cancer and Vulvar 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 2 inclusion and 1 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Nov 2024. 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.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Combined Incidence of HPV Type 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, or 58-related Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) Grades 2 or 3, Adenocarcinoma In Situ (AIS), and Cervical Cancer in Cohort 1 (time frame: Up to 30 years after vaccination in V503-001 base study). 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 NCT02653118, 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 12 Nov 2024.
