About this study

Official title: A Phase IV Open-Label, Descriptive Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness on the Incidence of HPV 6, 11, 16 and 18 Related CIN 2/3 or Worse of the Quadrivalent HPV (Types 6, 11, 16, 18) L1 Virus-Like Particle (VLP) Vaccine in 16- to 26-Year-Old Japanese Women

This study evaluated the long-term safety of quadrivalent Human Papillomavirus (HPV) types 6, 11, 16, 18 vaccine and its effectiveness in the prevention of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), adenocarcinoma in situ, and cervical cancer related to HPV in Japanese women.

What is being measured

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

  1. Combined Incidence of Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) 2/3 or Worse Related to Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Type 6, 11, 16, or 18

    The endpoint included pathology panel consensus diagnosis of CIN 2 or 3, adenocarcinoma in situ, invasive squamous cervical carcinoma, or invasive adenocarcinoma of the cervix, and HPV type 6, 11, 16, or 18 detected in an adjacent section from the same tissue block. The point estimates and exact 95% confidence intervals for incidence rate were based on the Poisson distribution.

    Measured: Up to Month 48

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing V501 in people with Cervical Cancer and Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia, 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 4 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 28 Nov 2018. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 7 Jul 2017). 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?

Combined Incidence of Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) 2/3 or Worse Related to Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Type 6, 11, 16, or 18 (time frame: Up to Month 48). 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 NCT01544478, 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 28 Nov 2018.
