About this study

Official title: Long Term Follow-up Study of CTN 236 - A Study of an HPV VLP Vaccine in a Cohort of HIV Positive Girls and Women

The purpose of this extension study is to determine whether HPV antibody levels in HIV-positive girls and women will decline more rapidly and more significantly than in HIV-negative girls and women and if this decline is determined by HIV parameters.

Read the detailed description

Study hypothesis: HPV antibody levels in HIV-positive girls and women will decline more rapidly and more significantly than in HIV-negative girls and women and that this decline will be determined by HIV parameters.

Girls and women living with HIV (greater than, or equal to, age 11) attending the HIV treatment clinics in each of the 13 sites across Canada and who enrolled in and received at least one dose of quadrivalent HPV vaccine as part of "A Study of an HPV VLP Vaccine in a Cohort of HIV Positive Girls and Women (CTN 236)" will be offered participation in this long term follow-up study.

OBJECTIVES

Primary:

To measure the antibody response to each genotype contained in the qHPV vaccine to 96 months post first dose of quadrivalent HPV vaccine.

Secondary:

  1. To determine the incidence rate and nature of 'breakthrough' HPV incidence and persistent (2 sequential positive HPV DNA in > 6 months) infections of vaccine - non-vaccine-containing high-risk types;
  2. To determine the incidence rate of cervical dysplasia (LSIL or greater) and/or vulvar and vaginal dysplasia associated HPV genotypes (both with and without vaccine types; and
  3. To determine the incidence rate of external genital warts.

Exploratory:

  1. To examine the relationship between HSV-2 serostatus and peak HPV antibody response as well as HPV incidence and persistent infections; and
  2. To relate vaginal microbiome profiles to HPV acquisition/persistence and cervical dysplasia.

STUDY DESIGN Phase 3, longitudinal, multi-center, 13 sites, girls and women living with HIV aged 11 years of age and older, received one plus dose of quadrivalent HPV vaccine in the precursor study.

STUDY VISITS 3 possible visits over a total of 5 years

  • Visit 8 (month 36)
  • Visit 9 (month 48)
  • Visit 10 (month 60)
  • Visit 11 (month 72)*
  • Visit 12 (month 84)*
  • Visit 13 (month 96)*

STUDY PROCEDURES:

Informed consent, Medical history, Height \& weight, Cervical cytology and HPV DNA (liquid prep method), Gynecological swab for vaginal microbiota, Serology for HPV antibodies, Serology for HSV-2, Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Survey (at one time-point only for participants 18 years of age and older).

NOTE: Girls who are pre-menarchal and not sexually active will not be asked to undergo any genital examinations or sampling until they become menarchal and sexually active.

DATA COLLECTION Consent and source document templates will be provided by the Study Coordinating Center. Source data will be transferred to paper case report forms and sent to the Study Coordinating Center/CTN where it will be entered into an electronic database.

PRIMARY ENDPOINT The primary endpoint of this study will be the HPV antibody GMT for each of the 4 types contained in the GARDASIL™ vaccine up to month 96 after receiving at least one dose of the vaccine.

SECONDARY ENDPOINTS Incidence rates of: 1) breakthrough incidents and persistent HPV infections; 2) cervical dysplasia; 3) external genital warts

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervical Cancer and Human Papillomavirus Infection, run by University of British Columbia at 13 sites in Canada.

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 2 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 8 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in 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.

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?

Primary Objective (time frame: 96 month post-vaccination regimen). 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 8 Apr 2025.
