Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of V503, a 9-valent Human Papillomavirus (9vHPV) Vaccine in Females 12-26 Years of Age Who Have Previously Received GARDASIL™ (V503-006) (NCT NCT01047345)

NCT ID: NCT01047345

Last Updated: 2018-11-27

Results Overview

An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the study vaccine, whether or not considered related to the use of the vaccine. Any worsening of a preexisting condition which is temporally associated with the use of the study vaccine is also an AE. The percentage of participants who reported an AE that was associated with the injection site such as redness, swelling, and pain/tenderness/soreness was summarized.

An SAE is one that results in death, disability/incapacity, or hospitalization or is life threatening, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, cancer, an overdose, or otherwise jeopardizes the participant and may require medical intervention. An SAE that is judged by the Investigator to be "definitely related," "probably related," or "possibly related" is defined as a vaccine-related SAE.

An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the study vaccine, whether or not considered related to the use of the vaccine. Any worsening of a preexisting condition which is temporally associated with the use of the study vaccine is also an AE. Participants were instructed to estimate the severity of AEs such as pain at injection site as mild (awareness of symptom, but easily tolerated), moderate (discomfort enough to cause interference with usual activities), or severe (incapacitating with inability to work or do usual activity). Additionally, participants were instructed to measure any swelling and/or erythema at its greatest width. Swelling or erythema with diameter \>2 inches (\>5 cm) was recorded as severe. All AEs associated with the injection site and reported as severe were summarized.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 4 weeks post-vaccination 3 (Month 7; End of Base Study)

Population: Participants who received all 3 vaccinations within an acceptable day range, had Month 7 serology sample collected within an acceptable range and had no other protocol violations that could interfere with immunes response to the vaccine. Statistical testing performed only within the 9vHPV arm and only for HPV types 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58.

Serum antibody titers for HPV virus-like particles (VLPs), Types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52 and 58 were determined 4 weeks post-vaccination 3 using competitive luminex immunoassay (cLIA). The serostatus cutoffs (milli Merck U/mL) for HPV types were as follows: HPV Type 6: ≥30, HPV Type 11: ≥16; HPV Type 16: ≥20, HPV Type 18: ≥24, HPV Type 31: ≥10, HPV Type 33: ≥8, HPV Type 45: ≥8, HPV Type 52: ≥8, and HPV Type 58: ≥8.
