About this study
Official title: Evaluation of the Safety and Immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals' HPV Vaccine 580299 When Administered in Healthy Females Aged 9 - 25 Years Using an Alternative Schedule and an Alternative Dosing as Compared to the Standard Schedule and Dosing
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection has been established as a necessary cause of cervical cancer. GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals has developed an HPV vaccine (580299) which targets the 2 most common oncogenic HPV types (HPV-16 and HPV-18), found in approximately 70% of all cervical cancers. In previous trials this vaccine has been found to be efficacious in the prevention of incident and persistent HPV-16/18 infections and associated cytological abnormalities and cervical dysplasia. In this partially-blind study, GSK Biologicals will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the HPV vaccine using an alternative schedule and an alternative dosing when administered in healthy young females aged 9 to 25 years, as compared to the standard HPV vaccine. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007. The protocol posting has been updated following a protocol amendment.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection has been established as a necessary cause of cervical cancer. GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals has developed an HPV vaccine (580299) which targets the 2 most common oncogenic HPV types (HPV-16 and HPV-18), found in approximately 70% of all cervical cancers. In previous trials this vaccine has been found to be efficacious in the prevention of incident and persistent HPV-16/18 infections and associated cytological abnormalities and cervical dysplasia. In this partially-blind study, GSK Biologicals will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the HPV vaccine using an alternative schedule and an alternative dosing when administered in healthy young females aged 9 to 25 years, as compared to the standard HPV vaccine. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007. The protocol posting has been updated following a protocol amendment.

- Written informed consent/assent obtained from the subject prior to enrolment. For subjects above the legal age of consent, written informed consent must be obtained from the subject. For subjects below the legal age of consent, written informed consent from the subject's parents/legally acceptable representative, and written informed assent must be obtained from the subject.
- Healthy subjects as established by medical history and history-oriented clinical examination before entering into the study.
- Subject must be of non-childbearing potential, or if she is of childbearing potential, she must practice adequate contraception for 30 days prior to vaccination, have a negative pregnancy test and continue such precautions for two months after completion of the vaccination series.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Cervarix in people with Infections, Papillomavirus, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 25 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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 25 sites in Germany, Canada. 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 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 17 Apr 2014). 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?
Titers of Anti-Papillomavirus 16 (Anti-HPV-16) and Anti-human Papillomavirus 18 (Anti-HPV-18) Antibodies (time frame: One month after vaccination with the last dose of the Cervarix vaccine (Cervarix 1/Placebo Group: Month 3; Other groups: Month 7).). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00541970, which also lists 6 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 17 Aug 2018.
