Filter by: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.
This phase II trial studies whether the nonavalent human papillomavirus vaccine given to adults prior to kidney transplantation can help the body build and maintain an effective immune response during the post-transplant period when they receive immunosuppressive drugs to prevent transplant rejection. This study will help inform our scientific understanding about vaccine-induced immune responses among immunosuppressed individuals.
1. To determine the prevalence and incidence of anal HSIL and associated risk factors among MSM who initiate ART during AHI.
Australia was one of the countries to implement a universal school-based male vaccination program - in 2013. This research project will examine the prevalence of HPV among young men who have sex with men (MSM) who have been offered school-based HPV vaccination.
This trial studies the screening of human papillomavirus (HPV)-related oropharyngeal and anogenital cancers. Learning the relationship between HPV and cancer risk in men who test positive for HPV antibodies or circulating HPV DNA may help doctors to develop early methods of screening for certain types of cancer, and screening for HPV may help doctors to learn which patients may be at a higher risk for developing certain types of cancer.
This is a minimal risk, anonymous, convenience sample, social behavioral study using qualitative descriptive survey methods. It is to ascertain community member, physician, resident and medical student perspectives regarding Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection, associated diseases and to identify barriers which prevent these groups from ensuring that males 9-26 receive the three-shot vaccine series to prevent HPV infection. The research is focused on these questions: Do community members understand the ease of transmission of the HPV virus in males 9-26? Do community members, physicians, residents and medical students have knowledge of the associated diseases that may occur with the HPV virus infection in males age 9-26? Do community members, physicians, residents and medical students know the ages in which males should receive the HPV vaccine three-shot series? What barriers prevent community members and physicians, residents and medical students from ensuring that males 9-26 receive the three-shot vaccine series to prevent HPV infection?
Cervical cancer is the second most frequent cancer of women in French Guiana. Studies have shown that populations living in remote villages in the interior of the territory have early sexual relations and that multiple sexual partnerships are frequent. Hence, the main objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of HPV in these areas, and the predictive factors and epidemiology of this viral infection. Methods - This multicentric cross sectional study aimed the population of women aged 20 to 65 years, living in the remote villages along the Maroni and Oyapock rivers. Women wishing to participate will be included after being informed of the study team schedule through radio address and key opinion leaders. The search for HPV and cytologic examinations will be performed for each woman. 2 samples will be taken from each woman: one sample will be sent to Fort De France hospital for cytology, and HPV testing; cytologic analyses will be performed using the 2001 Bethesda classification. Another sample will be sent to Pasteur Institute in Cayenne for sequencing and detection of E6 and E7 RNA which are associated with carcinogenesis. HPV infection will be defined by the detection of viral DNA using the GREINER-BIO-ONE kit. Statistical analysis of the results will use STATA software and mapping will use Mapinfo.
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.
Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) can cause cervical, throat, anal, and genital cancers. Cancers caused by HPV have a HPV protein called E7 inside of their cells. In this new therapy, researchers take a person s blood, remove certain white blood cells, and insert genes that make them to target cancer cells that have the E7 protein. The genetically changed cells, called E7 TCR cells, are then given back to the person to fight the cancer. Researchers want to see if this can help people. Objective: To determine a safe dose and efficacy of E7 TCR cells and whether these cells can help patients. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older with an HPV-16-associated cancer, including cervical, vulvar, vaginal, penile, anal, or oropharyngeal. Design: Participants will list all their medicines. Participants will have many screening tests, including imaging procedures, heart and lung tests, and lab tests. They will have a large catheter inserted into a vein. Participants will have leukapheresis. Blood will be removed through a needle in the arm. A machine separates the white blood cells. The rest of the blood is returned through a needle in the other arm. The cells will be changed in the lab. Participants will stay in the hospital. Over several days, they will get: Chemotherapy drugs E7 TCR cells Shots or injections to stimulate the cells Participants will be monitored in the hospital up to 12 days. They will get support medicine and have blood and lab tests. Participants will have a clinic visit about 40 days after cell infusion. They will have a physical exam, blood work, scans, and maybe x-rays. Participants will have many follow-up visits with the same procedures. At some visits, they may undergo leukapheresis. Participants will be followed for 15 years.
This study evaluates the safety and tolerability of the investigational drug EF-022 in the treatment of adult patients with Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (RRP). Patients will be administered EF-022, either intramuscular or subcutaneous, for a period of 6 months. Preliminary effect of the drug on the disease will be evaluated by following the number and severity of the lesions in the respiratory tract and the effect on voice changes.
