Effector and Memory Immune Responses to HPV Vaccination in Vietnamese Women Post Virus Exposure (HPV9vxFSW)

November 7, 2024 updated by: Nguyen Van Trang, National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology, Vietnam

A Non-inferiority Study Comparing the Immunogenicity of a Standard or an Extended Three-dose Nonavalent Human Papillomavirus Vaccine Schedule Between High-risk Women Aged 18-26 Years and Age-matched Women in the General Population

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

Study Overview

Detailed Description

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:

  1. 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.
  2. To compare antibody GMT at 18m and 19m between FSW and non-FSW.
  3. To determine cellular immune responses to HPV16 and 18 at baseline, 2m, 7m, 18m and 19m.
  4. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. HPV antibody GMT are similar at 18m and 19m between FSW and non-FSW who received the extended schedule.
  3. 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.
  4. No new vaccine-type HPV infection in FSW and non-FSW in all groups at 6m, 12m, 18m.
