NCT00541970

Brief Summary

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection has been established as a necessary cause of cervical cancer. GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals has developed an HPV vaccine (580299) which targets the 2 most common oncogenic HPV types (HPV-16 and HPV-18), found in approximately 70% of all cervical cancers. In previous trials this vaccine has been found to be efficacious in the prevention of incident and persistent HPV-16/18 infections and associated cytological abnormalities and cervical dysplasia. In this partially-blind study, GSK Biologicals will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the HPV vaccine using an alternative schedule and an alternative dosing when administered in healthy young females aged 9 to 25 years, as compared to the standard HPV vaccine. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007. The protocol posting has been updated following a protocol amendment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Titers of Anti-Papillomavirus 16 (Anti-HPV-16) and Anti-human Papillomavirus 18 (Anti-HPV-18) Antibodies

    Titers are given as Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) expressed in Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) units per milliliter (EL.U/mL).

    One month after vaccination with the last dose of the Cervarix vaccine (Cervarix 1/Placebo Group: Month 3; Other groups: Month 7).

  • Number of Subjects With Report of Any, and Grade 3 Solicited Local Symptoms

    Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the solicited local symptom irrespective of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = pain that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 redness/swelling = redness/swelling larger than (\>) 50 millimeters (mm).

    Within 7 days (Day 0-6) after vaccination.

  • Number of Subjects With Any, Grade 3 and Related Solicited General Symptoms

    Assessed solicited general symptoms were arthralgia, fatigue, fever (defined as axillary temperature equal or above (≥) 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C), gastrointestinal symptoms, which included nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and/or abdominal pain, headache, myalgia, rash and urticaria. Grade 3 symptoms = symptoms that prevented normal activity. Grade 3 fever = axillary temperature ≥ 39 °C. Grade 3 urticaria = urticaria distributed on at least 4 body areas. Related symptom = symptom assessed by the investigator to be causally related to vaccination.

    Within 7 days (Day 0-6) after vaccination.
