About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Study to Assess the Safety and Exploratory Immunogenicity of PV-001

Study Title:

Evaluation of the Safety and Immunogenicity of a Third Dose of PV-001 in Healthy Women Aged 19-45

Objective:

To assess the safety and antibody response of a third dose of PV-001 in healthy adult female participants.

Key Questions Is PV-001 safe? What adverse events may occur after vaccination? Does PV-001 produce an effective immune response?

Participant Activities :

Three clinic visits for screening and vaccination Blood samples collected on a set schedule Monitoring for side effects after vaccination

Conditions
HPV Infections
Being tested
PV-001, PEV-001
Medical subject headings
Papillomavirus Infections

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PV-001Biological

    9-valent vaccine containing antigens for HPV types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58

  • PEV-001Biological

    PEV-001 is a formulation of the PV-001 vaccine that excludes the HPV antigens and contains only aluminum phosphate.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety assessment

    Adverse Events:

    Immediate adverse reactions occurring within 30 minutes after administration of the investigational product (e.g., syncope, loss of consciousness, anaphylaxis-related events),

    Expected local and systemic adverse reactions occurring within 7 days following administration of the investigational product, and

    Unexpected adverse events occurring from the first dose through 180 days after the third dose (Visit 11).

    Measured: 180 days after last dose of vaccination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Exploratory immunogenicity assessment

    Antibody titers (GMTs) and fold increases (GMRs), measured by ELISA, will be evaluated at 4 months after the second dose and 28 days after the third dose, relative to baseline levels assessed prior to the first dose of the investigational product.

    Neutralizing antibody titers (GMTs) and fold increases (GMRs) against HPV types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58 will be measured using a pseudovirus-based neutralization assay at 4 months after the second dose (Visit 8) and 28 days after the third dose (Visit 10), relative to baseline levels measured prior to the first dose of the investigational product (Visit 1).

    Measured: At 4 months after the second dose (Visit 8) and 28 days after the third dose (Visit 10), relative to baseline (Visit 1, prior to the first dose of the investigational product)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PV-001 and PEV-001 in people with HPV Infections, run by POSVAX at 1 site in South Korea.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 23 Jul 2025. 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 South Korea. 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 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?

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?

Safety assessment (time frame: 180 days after last dose of vaccination). 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 NCT07081334, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 23 Jul 2025.
