Effector and Memory Immune Responses to HPV Vaccination in Vietnamese Women Post Virus Exposure

A Study to evaluate if the 3 dose extended schedule (0-6-18 months) for the HPV vaccine Gardasil-9 provide similar immune responses and short term protection against HPV infection compared to the regular 3 dose schedule (0-2-6 months) in high risk women in Vietnam

About this study

Primary objective:

To determine whether antibody geometric mean titer (GMT) to vaccine type HPV16 and HPV18 at 7 months (m) are non-inferior between female sex workers (FSW) aged 18-26 years who received the standard (0, 2m, 6m) and those received the extended 3-dose (at 0, 6m and 18m) 9vHPV schedule and age-matched non-FSW who received an extended 3-dose (at 0, 6m and 18m) 9vHPV schedule. This extended 3-dose schedule is in line with the recommended schedule by the vaccine manufacturer in Vietnam.

Secondary objectives:

  • To compare antibody GMT at 2m, 7m, 18m and 19m between FSW who are HPV DNA+/seropositive with FSW who are HPV DNA-/seronegative at baseline.
  • To compare antibody GMT at 18m and 19m between FSW and non-FSW.
  • To determine cellular immune responses to HPV16 and 18 at baseline, 2m, 7m, 18m and 19m.
  • To measure incidence and 6m/12m/18m persistent HPV infection.

Primary hypothesis:

HPV antibody GMT to HPV16 and 18 in FSW is non-inferior to those of young women of the same age group (non-FSW) at 7m.

Secondary hypothesis:

  • HPV antibody GMT are similar at 2m, 7m, 18m and 19m between FSW who are HPV DNA+/seropositive and HPV DNA-/seronegative at month 0.
  • HPV antibody GMT are similar at 18m and 19m between FSW and non-FSW who received the extended schedule.
  • Cellular immune responses to HPV16 and 18 are similar between FSW and non-FSW at 2m, 7m, 18m and 19m who received the extended schedule.
  • No new vaccine-type HPV infection in FSW and non-FSW in all groups at 6m, 12m, 18m.

Treatment and study plan

Human papillomavirus 9-valent vaccine, Recombinant

Biological

HPV vaccine manufactured by MSD consisted of 9HPV types: 6,11,16,18,31,33, 45, 52,58

Other names: Gardasil 9

Primary outcomes

  1. Comparison between antibody responses after the 3rd dose ofregular vaccine schedules among FSW and after the 2nd dose of the extended schedule

    Time frame: 7 months from the first doses

    geometric mean titer (GMT) ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of HPV- specific antibody responses to HPV16 and HPV18 at 7m between FSWs aged 18-26 years who received either the standard (0, 2m, 6m) or extended 3-dose (at 0, 6m and 18m) 3-dose 9vHPV schedule and age-matched non-FSWs who received the extended 3-dose 9vHPV schedule (at 0, 6m and 18m).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Comparison of antibody responses after each doses among FSW according to HPV infection status pre-vaccination

    Time frame: 19 months after the 1st doses

    Antibody GMT at 2m, 7m, 18m and 19m between FSW who are HPV DNA+/seropositive with FSW who are HPV DNA-/seronegative at baseline.

  2. Comparison of antibody response after 3 doses of extended schedule between FSW and non-FSW

    Time frame: 19 month after the first doses

    Antibody GMT at 18m and 19m between FSW and non-FSW.

  3. Celular response after each vaccine dose

    Time frame: 19 months after the 1st dose

    Proportion of HPV16 and 18-specific B/T cells at baseline, 2m, 7m, 18m and 19m.

  4. HPV persistent during 19 month or more among vaccines

    Time frame: at least 19 months after the first dose

    • Incidence (detection of the specific-type HPV DNA at least once during the follow-up period) and persistent HPV infection (defined as detection of the same HPV type in at least 2 samples not interrupted by negative sample during the follow-up period).
