Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity of a 9-valent Human Papillomavirus Vaccine ([9vHPV]; V503) Administered to 9- to 15-Year-Old Japanese Girls (V503-008). (NCT NCT01254643)

NCT ID: NCT01254643

Last Updated: 2018-11-28

Results Overview

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.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 4 weeks post-vaccination 3 (Month 7)

Population: Participants who received all 3 vaccinations and met criteria for Per Protocol Immunogenicity (PPI) Population (not a general protocol violator, received all vaccinations within acceptable day ranges, seronegative at Day 1 for HPV type(s), and had a Month 7 serum sample collected within an acceptable day range) for at least 1 of the 9 HPV types.

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).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: up to 5 days after any vaccination

Population: Safety Population, which consisted of all participants who received at least one vaccination and had available follow-up data.

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. AEs such as redness, swelling, and pain/tenderness/soreness at the injection site were recorded.

Any worsening of a preexisting condition which is temporally associated with the use of the study vaccine is also an AE. Systemic AEs were those not categorized as injection-site AEs.

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. Adverse experience that is judged by the Investigator to be "definitely related," "probably related," or "possibly related" to the study drug is defined as a vaccine-related AE.
