Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is an open-label, single-center, investigator-initiated clinical trial (IIT) designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of NWRD09 in patients with persistent HPV16 infection localized to the anal region. A total of 10 participants will be enrolled and allocated to two parallel treatment groups. Participants are assigned to two parallel treatment groups, with one sentinel participant per group. Sentinel safety observation over 7 days post-first dose precedes enrollment of subsequent participants. Objectives include assessment of safety/tolerability, HPV16 DNA clearance, cytological regression, histopathological improvement (for baseline AIN1), and cellular immune responses through Week 28.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Female and male, aged 18 to 60 years (inclusive).
  2. HPV DNA genotyping of anal specimens demonstrates positivity for HPV16, with documented persistence for at least 12 months (≥12 months).
  3. Histopathological findings show low-grade lesion, inflammation, or no abnormality.
  4. Adequate organ function within 4 week before the first dose.
  5. For premenopausal women of childbearing potential: a negative serum pregnancy test within 4 weeks before the first dose. Eligible participants of childbearing potential and their partners must agree to use highly effective contraception throughout the trial and for 6 months after the last study dose.
  6. Ability to understand the study and voluntarily provide written informed consent (ICF), willingness and ability to communicate effectively with the investigator, and to comply with all protocol-required treatment, examinations, and visits.

  3. Participation in another clinical trial within 30 days prior to screening, or currently being in the follow-up period of another clinical trial.
  4. Continuous use (for >1 week) of systemic corticosteroids at a dose equivalent to >10 mg/day of prednisone within 30 days prior to screening, with the exception of hormone replacement therapy and topical administration (e.g., intratracheal, ophthalmic).
  5. Continuous use (for >1 week) of immunosuppressants (e.g., cyclosporine, tacrolimus, azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, antilymphocyte globulin) within 30 days prior to screening.
  6. Receipt of any inactivated or live vaccine within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug.
  7. Receipt of any AIN-related drug or physical therapy within 4 weeks prior to the first dose.
  8. History of any therapeutic HPV vaccination (prior receipt of licensed prophylactic HPV vaccines is acceptable).
  9. Use of blood or blood-related products (including immunoglobulins) within 3 months prior to the first dose, or planned use during the study period.
  10. History of immunodeficiency or autoimmune disease (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, etc.).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
