Filter by:Background: In the United States, each year there are more than 30,000 cases of human papillomavirus (HPV) associated cancers. Some of these cancers are often incurable and are not improved by standard therapies. Researchers want to see if a new drug M7824, which targets and blocks a pathway that prevents the immune system from effectively fighting the cancer can shrink tumors in people with some HPV cancers. Objectives: To see if the drug M7824 causes tumors to shrink. Eligibility: Adults age 18 and older who have a cancer associated with HPV infection. Design: Participants will be screened with medical history and physical exam. They will review their symptoms and how they perform normal activities. They will have body scans. They will give blood and urine samples. They will have a sample of their tumor tissue taken if one is not available. Participants will have an electrocardiogram to evaluate their heart. Then they will get the study drug through a thin tube in an arm vein. Participants will get the drug every 2 weeks for 26 times (1 year). This is 1 course. After the course, participants will be monitored but will not take the study drug. If their condition gets worse, they will start another course with the drug. This process can be repeated as many times as needed. Treatment will stop if the participant has bad side effects or the drug stops working. Throughout the study, participants will repeat some or all the screening tests. After participants stop taking the drug, they will have a follow-up visit and repeat some screening tests. They will get periodic follow-up phone calls.
The project aims to increase HPV vaccination and cervical cancer screening through a web-based mobile health education program called, Wheel of Wellness (WoW) and a brief negotiated interview (BNI). The in-person BNI and WoW system will provide educational resources for participants and their families to learn more about HPV vaccination and cervical cancer screening.
This study evaluates the use of topical ABI-1968 cream, in the treatment of cervical precancerous lesions in adult women.
The primary research aim of this project is to test the effectiveness of a comprehensive, evidence-based vaccine promotion toolkit implemented in the pediatric healthcare setting on increasing the likelihood that adolescents in Georgia will initiate and complete the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine series. Secondary research aims include assessing the impact of the comprehensive toolkit on 1) patient and parent knowledge and attitudes regarding HPV vaccine, and 2) provider recommendation of HPV vaccine for males and females in the recommended age range (11-12 years). The intervention toolkit will include evidence-based components aimed at the practice-level, provider-level and parent-level that will be tested through a cluster-randomized trial design. The primary hypothesis is that implementation of the comprehensive vaccine promotion toolkit in the pediatric health care setting will increase the likelihood that an adolescent receives initiates HPV vaccination. At the initial visit, parents of adolescent patients at participating pediatric practices will complete a brief questionnaire assessing their knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs about adolescent health, including protection against infectious diseases during adolescence. The parents will be contacted again three months later to complete a short follow-up interview on the general health of their adolescent child, immunization status, and attitudes regarding vaccination.
This is a Phase 1b/2a, open-label, multi-center study to evaluate the safety and tolerability, anti-tumor activity, and immunogenicity of MEDI0457 (also known as INO 3112) a HPV Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) vaccine in combination with durvalumab (also known as MEDI4736) which is a human monoclonal antibody directed against Programmed Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1), which blocks the interaction of PD-L1 with PD-1 and Cluster of differentiation 80 (CD80). An initial three to 12 participants (Safety Analysis Run-in participants) will be enrolled and assessed for safety before additional participants are enrolled. The initial safety analysis run-in participants along with an approximate total of 50 participants with human papilloma virus associated recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC) will be enrolled in this study and evaluated also for anti-tumor efficacy to MEDI0457 in combination with durvalumab.
Invasive cervical cancer incidence and mortality can be dramatically reduced through early detection and treatment, but many women do not complete screening at recommended intervals. Many low-income women in Virginia remain uninsured and are at significant risk of being medically underserved and failing to complete regular cervical cancer screening. At-home self-collection of specimens for HPV testing is an innovative approach that may increase access to cervical cancer screening in populations that do not participate in traditional clinic-based screening. The proposed community based participatory study aims to determine whether offering at-home self-collection for HPV testing through a lay navigator network is an acceptable and feasible method to increase access to cervical cancer screening for under-screened women in the Tobacco Footprint in rural far Southwest Virginia (Health Districts 1, 2 and 3). The procedures will be recruitment of under-screened women in Health Districts 1, 2 and 3 of Southwest Virginia to complete HPV testing using self-collection kits distributed by lay navigators. Regardless of HPV positivity, all women will be provided with information about cervical cancer screening (locations, cost, etc.), and will be encouraged to complete Pap screening by a clinician.
This open label study investigates a novel non-surgical approach to the treatment of HPV-associated anal intraepithelial neoplasia, using Artesunate suppositories.
HPV infections may be responsible for different types of cancer in females. Primary Goal of the study was to identify the prevalence of an hpv affiliation in retrospective-prospective analysed cohort of patients who suffer from vulvar cancer and their preinvasive lesions.
Background: Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a rare disease caused by human papillomavirus. It can cause voice changes, airway compromise, pulmonary lesions, and cancers. Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is a protein on cells. It may be able to stop or decrease the immune system s response to viruses such as human papillomavirus. The drug Avelumab interferes with the activity of PD-L1. Researchers want to see if Avelumab treats RRP and study its side effects. Objective: To see if Avelumab works in treating RRP and is safe. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with aggressive RRP that has not responded to available treatments Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Previously collected tumor tissue Physical exam Blood, urine, and heart tests Endoscopy procedure: A small tube with a camera is used to look in the nose, throat, larynx, and upper windpipe. Before starting treatment, participants will have: Endoscopy under anesthesia. A sample of papilloma will be taken. Voice handicap questionnaire Computed tomography (CT) scans Apheresis: An intravenous (IV) is inserted into an arm vein. White blood cells are separated from the rest of the blood and stored for research. The rest of the blood is returned through the same IV or one in the other arm. Participants will get the study drug by IV every 2 weeks for up to 12 weeks. Participants will repeat the previous tests throughout the study. If they respond to treatment, participants will be evaluated every 6 weeks (3 times), then every 12 weeks (3 times), then every 26 weeks (2 times) until their disease progresses. Participants will be evaluated 30 days after their last infusion. They will then be contacted annually.
This is a phase II randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled, crossover trial. The primary outcome of this trial is achieving durable eradication persistent high risk HPV infection determined by HPV negative test results achieved while on active treatment with AHCC and maintained for 6 month post supplementation and 12 months post completion of AHCC treatment compared to placebo.
