Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study of Gardasil in Mid-Adult Males (MAM) (NCT NCT01432574)

NCT ID: NCT01432574

Last Updated: 2021-09-16

Results Overview

Immune response was measured with a multiplex competitive Luminex immunoassay (anti-HPV-6, -11, -16, and -18 chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer (cLIA); Merck) at Pharmaceutical Product Development (PPD). Briefly, this assay simultaneously quantitates neutralizing antibodies to HPV 6, 11, 16, and 18 in 50 μL of serum. The seronegative study population at Day 1 (no detectable HPV antibody titers at Day 1) were to be categorized as seroconverted due to increase in titer levels for each vaccine component at Month 7.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 7 Months

Population: Participants who had specimens contributing to both Day 1 and Month 7 serum HPV antibody evaluations.

Immune response was measured with a multiplex competitive Luminex immunoassay (anti-HPV-6, -11, -16, and -18 chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer (cLIA); Merck) at Pharmaceutical Product Development (PPD). Briefly, this assay simultaneously quantitates neutralizing antibodies to HPV 6, 11, 16, and 18 in 50 μL of serum.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Points: Day 1 and Month 7

Population: Participants who had specimens contributing to both Day 1 and Month 7 serum HPV antibody evaluations.

Change in antibody titers 1 month post-dose 3 of vaccine. For each vaccine component, the geometric mean titers (GMT) and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for antibody titers at each time-point (Day 1 and Month 7). For each participant, the difference in antibody titers between these 2 time-points (titers at Month 7 minus titers at Day 1) was calculated. The mean of antibody titer change and its 95% CI were calculated. Immune response was measured with a multiplex competitive Luminex immunoassay (anti-HPV-6, -11, -16, and -18 chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer (cLIA); Merck) at Pharmaceutical Product Development (PPD). Briefly, this assay simultaneously quantitates neutralizing antibodies to HPV 6, 11, 16, and 18 in 50 μL of serum. mMU/ml is an arbitrary unit of measure derived after comparing relative inhibition of mAb-PE binding to a pooled standard reference serum using a four-parameter logistic curve fit and correcting for dilution.
