Complementary Testing to Evaluate Immunogenicity of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccine (580299) in Healthy Female Subjects Aged >/= 26 Years

Infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) has been clearly established as the central cause of cervical cancer. Indeed, certain oncogenic types of HPV can infect the cervix (part of the uterus or womb). This infection may go away by itself, but if it does not go away (this is called persistent infection), it can lead in women over a long period of time to cancer of the cervix. This study will supplement an ongoing study evaluating the safety, efficacy and immunogenicity of the vaccine in women aged 26 years and above. This study will therefore assess additional immunogenicity parameters of the vaccine in women from selected investigative sites.

The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.

Other names: GSK Biologicals' HPV-16/18 VLP/AS04 vaccine

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Cytokine-positive CD4/CD8 Cells Per Million in Tests Producing at Least 2 Different Cytokines

    Time frame: At Month 12 and Month 18 after first vaccination

    The geometric mean and 95% confidence interval of the number of Human Papilloma Virus type 16 (HPV-16) and HPV-18 specific CD4 and CD8 cells producing at least 2 different cytokines is reported per million of CD4 or CD8 T-cells, respectively.

  2. Number of B-cells Per Million Showing a Specific Memory Response for HPV-16 and HPV-18

    Time frame: At Month 12 and Month 18 after first vaccination

    The geometric mean and 95% confidence interval of the number of HPV-16 and HPV-18 specific memory B-cells is reported per million of B-cells.

    An arbitrary value of 0 was given for subjects with antibody concentration below the limit of quantification.

  3. Number of Subjects With Anti-HPV-16 and Anti-HPV-18 Antibody Concentrations Above Pre-defined Cut-off Values

    Time frame: At Month 12 and Month 18 after first vaccination

    Cut-off values assessed include 8 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay units Per Milliliter (EL.U/mL)for anti-HPV-16 antibodies and 7 EL.U/mL for anti-HPV-18 antibodies.

  4. Titers of Anti-HPV-16 and Anti-HPV-18 Antibodies

    Time frame: At Month 12 and Month 18 after first vaccination

    Titers are presented as Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs).

  5. Titers of Anti-human Papilloma Virus 16 (Anti-HPV-16) Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Antibodies

    Time frame: At Month 12 and Month 18 after first vaccination

    Titers given as Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs). An arbitrary value of 0 was given for subjects with antibody concentration below the limit of quantification.

  6. Correlation of Anti-HPV-16 and Anti-HPV-18 Antibodies in Serum and in Cervical Secretion (CVS) Samples

    Time frame: At Month 12 and Month 18 after first vaccination

    Pearson coefficients of correlation between serum and CVS for anti-HPV-16 and anti-HPV-18 titers standardized for total IgG were calculated.
