Filter by:This randomized phase II trial studies how well transoral surgery followed by low-dose or standard-dose radiation therapy works in treating patients with human papilloma virus (HPV) positive stage III-IVA oropharyngeal cancer. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving radiation therapy with chemotherapy may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It is not yet known how much extra treatment needs to be given after surgery.
The main objective of this study is to investigate the association between the presence of HPV infection in one or both members of infertile/sub-infertile couples and the outcome of pregnancies obtained by assisted reproduction. The success of assisted medical procreation is defined as achieving a pregnancy resulting in the birth of a living, viable child.
A study to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of V501 (quadrivalent Human Papilloma Virus [HPV] [Type 6, 11, 16 and 18] L1 Virus-Like Particle vaccine, GARDASIL™) in healthy, 16- to 26-year old Japanese males. The hypotheses tested are: 1) V501 reduces the combined incidence of HPV 6-, 11-, 16-, or 18-related persistent infection compared with placebo, and 2) V501 reduces the combined incidence of HPV 6-, 11-, 16-, or 18-related persistent infection, condyloma acuminata, penile/perianal/perineal intraepithelial neoplasia, or penile, perianal, or perineal cancer compared with placebo.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a member of the Papillomaviridae family of DNA viruses that is capable of infecting humans. HPV infection can cause cancers of the cervix, vulva, vagina, and anus in women or cancers of the anus and penis in men. Two prophylactic vaccines have been proven to be highly effective in preventing the acquisition of HPV infection and the genital precancerous lesions caused by it. However, we do not know yet if a previously infected individual, once vaccinated, would be less infective to her or his sexual partner. We plan to conduct a study, called Transmission Reduction And Prevention with HPV vaccination (TRAP-HPV) study to answer this question. It will include 500 sexually active couples* (total of 1000 individuals) in university student health clinics in Montreal (age 18-45 years). It will be a randomized placebo-controlled, double-blinded intervention trial. Study participants will be followed up to 12 months. Behavioural and biological data will be collected at the time of study enrolment, then at months 2, 4, 6, 9 and 12 post-enrolment. The results of this trial will be invaluable in informing policies regarding vaccination of women and men.
HIV-infected women are at high risk of developing cervical cancer. This is a 3-year cohort study nested in the already existing Program for HIV Prevention and Treatment (PHPT) cohort of HIV-infected patients in Thailand (NCT 00433030). The main objective is to assess the prevalence, incidence, and clearance rate of HPV cervical infection and associated cervical lesion. The study will also provide the distribution of the HPV genotypes involved as well as other risk factors of cervical lesions. HIV-infected women receiving antiretrovirals, older than18 years of age, followed in the PHPT cohort or in the same hospitals are proposed to participate. An annual gynecological examination with a Pap-smear and a sampling for HPV testing is performed. Women with abnormal Pap-smear or with High-Risk HPV (HR-HPV) infection receive a more intensive follow-up with a colposcopy and a biopsy if necessary. Treatment is provided according to the National Guidelines.
The purpose of this study is to examine the prevalence, incidence and genotype of anogenital HPV infections in women before and after renal transplantation. With this information the investigators can determine the value of vaccination in patients waiting for renal transplantation in the future.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a model can be created to predict the progression of early anal cancer precursor lesions in HIV using potential predictors such as: HIV treatment history, smoking history, sexual history, human papillomavirus viral load, human papillomavirus protein expression, and cell markers associated with progression of HPV-related lesions.
This study compares the health and economic impact of the bivalent HPV vaccine (HPV-1) and the quadrivalent HPV vaccine (HPV-2).
The objective of the clinical study is to evaluate the AHPV-GT Assay using the PANTHER System in cervical cancer screening. This objective will be accomplished in the ASC-US Study by evaluating the performance characteristics of the AHPV-GT Assay using the PANTHER System in a sample population of women with ASC-US Pap test results who were 21 years of age or older ("≥21 years of age") at the time of their Pap visit. For the Adjunct Study, this objective will be accomplished by evaluating the ability of the AHPV-GT Assay using the PANTHER System to identify women at increased risk of cervical disease in a sample population of women with negative (NILM)cytology results who were ≥30 years of age at the time of their Pap visit.
This phase II trial studies how well ipilimumab works in treating patients with human papilloma virus (HPV)-related cervical cancer that has come back or that has spread to other areas of the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, can find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them.
