Detailed Description
2A Pharma's AAVLP-HPV vaccine candidate is based on AAVLPs with insertion of sequences of the L2 minor HPV capsid protein. The vaccine's intended clinical use is as a vaccine for prophylaxis against HPV infection in adolescents and adults.
This is a 12 month single-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, repeated dose, safety, tolerability, and immunological effect study. Twenty (20) healthy, adult male and female subjects will be enrolled with a minimum of 40% of each gender. Sixteen (16) subjects will be randomized to receive the active drug and 4 subjects to receive the placebo. At least 1 subject of each gender will be randomized to receive the placebo.
Subjects will receive a total of 3 doses of AAVLP-HPV or placebo: a prime on Day 1, and two boosts, one on Day 57 (±2 days) and one on Day 180 (±1 week). The volunteers will be followed until day 365 (±1 week) when they return for the final safety and serum-based immunogenicity and neutralising antibodies assessment.

- Medically healthy with no clinically significant medical history, physical examination, laboratory profiles, vital signs or ECGs, as deemed by the PI or designee.
For a female of childbearing potential: either be sexually inactive (abstinent as a lifestyle*) for 28 days prior to the first dosing and throughout the study or be using one of the following acceptable birth control methods:
- hormonal oral contraceptives, vaginal ring, transdermal patch, or hormone releasing intrauterine device for at least 3 months prior to the first dosing with either a physical (e.g., condom, diaphragm, or other) or a chemical (e.g., spermicide) barrier method from the time of screening and throughout the study.

In addition, female subjects of childbearing potential will be advised to remain sexually inactive or to keep the same birth control method for at least 28 days following the last dose.
* True abstinence is defined as refraining from heterosexual intercourse in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject.

- QTcF interval is >460 msec (males) or >470 msec (females) or has ECG findings deemed abnormal with clinical significance by the PI or designee at screening.
- Unable to refrain from or anticipates the use of any drug, including prescription and non-prescription medications, herbal remedies, or vitamin supplements that could adversely affect the immune system during 3 months prior to vaccination and throughout the study. Inhaled and topical corticosteroids will be allowed. Medication listed as part of acceptable birth control methods and hormone replacement therapy will be allowed. After randomization, acetaminophen (up to 2 g per 24 hours) may be administered at the discretion of the PI or designee. Appropriate sources will be consulted by the PI or designee to confirm interaction with study drugs. Subjects may not initiate new prescription medication within 1 month prior to screening, with exceptions, or must be on a stable dose for at least 90 days prior to vaccination as approved in advance by the PI or designee.
- Donation of blood or plasma within 90 days prior to the first dosing.
- Donation of bone marrow within the last 6 months prior to the first dosing.
- Participation in another clinical study with an investigational agent within the 90 days prior to first dosing. The 90-day window will be derived from the date of the last dosing, whichever is later, in the previous study to Day 1 of the current study.
- Has tattoo(s) or scarring at or near the site of vaccine administration or any other condition which may interfere with injection site examination, in the opinion of the PI.
