NCT03721978

Brief Summary

HPV-303 is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of VGX-3100 delivered intramuscularly (IM) followed by electroporation (EP) delivered with CELLECTRA™ 5PSP in adult women with histologically confirmed high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 \[CIN2\] or grade 3 \[CIN3\]) of the cervix, associated with human papillomavirus (HPV-16) and/or HPV-18.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Baseline Biomarker-positive Participants for ITT Population: Percentage of Participants With No Histologic Evidence of Cervical HSIL on Histology Sample and No Evidence of HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 in Cervical Samples

    Baseline biomarker-positive participants with no histologic (i.e., biopsies or excisional treatment) evidence of cervical HSIL, no evidence of HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 at Week 36, and participants who did not have unscheduled excision or biopsy sample obtained between the initial dose up to Week 36 were considered to be responders. No evidence of HSIL was defined by histology as negative, squamous atypia, or low-grade intraepithelial lesion (LSIL). Cervical samples for HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 were collected using the ThinPrep™. The efficacy time frame is defined by a biopsy or surgical excision at any time starting from 14 days prior to the protocol-specified target date of Week 36. The first tissue removal sample within the time frame determines the histology endpoint.

    At Week 36

Secondary Outcomes (23)

  • Baseline Biomarker-positive Participants for Safety Population: Number of Participants With Any Local and Systemic Adverse Events (AEs)

    From Baseline to Week 40

  • Safety Population: Number of Participants With Local and Systemic AEs

    From Baseline to Week 40

  • Baseline Biomarker-positive Participants for Safety Population: Number of Participants With Any Treatment Emergent AEs (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs (Including Suspected Unexpected Serious Adverse Reaction [SUSAR] and Unexpected Adverse Device Effect [UADE])

    From Baseline to Week 40

  • Safety Population: Number of Participants With Any TEAEs and Serious TEAEs (Including SUSAR and UADE)

    From Baseline to Week 40

  • ITT Population: Percentage of Participants With No Histologic Evidence of Cervical HSIL on Histology Sample and No Evidence of HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 in Cervical Samples

    At Week 36

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexfemale(Gender-based eligibility)
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Women aged 18 years and above
  • Confirmed cervical infection with HPV types 16 and/or 18 at screening
  • Cervical tissue specimen/slides provided to Study Pathology Adjudication Committee for diagnosis scheduled to be collected within 10 weeks prior to anticipated date of first dose of study drug
  • Confirmed histologic evidence of cervical HSIL at screening
  • Must be judged by Investigator to be an appropriate candidate for the protocol-specified procedure required at Week 36
  • With respect to their reproductive capacity must be post-menopausal or surgically sterile or willing to use a contraceptive method with failure rate of less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly from screening until Week 36
  • Normal screening electrocardiogram (ECG)

You may not qualify if:

  • Microscopic or gross evidence of adenocarcinoma-in-situ (AIS), high grade vulvar, vaginal, or anal intraepithelial neoplasia or invasive cancer in any histopathologic specimen at screening
  • Cervical lesion(s) that cannot be fully visualized on colposcopy
  • History of endocervical curettage (ECC) which showed cervical HSIL indeterminate, or insufficient for diagnosis
  • Treatment for cervical HSIL within 4 weeks prior to screening
  • Pregnant, breastfeeding or considering becoming pregnant during the study
  • History of previous therapeutic HPV vaccination
  • Immunosuppression as a result of underlying illness or treatment
  • Receipt of any non-study, non-live vaccine within 2 weeks of Day 0
  • Receipt of any non-study, live vaccine within 4 weeks of Day 0
  • Current or history of clinically significant, medically unstable disease or condition which, in the judgment of the investigator, would jeopardize the safety of the participant, interfere with study assessments or endpoint evaluation, or otherwise impact the validity of the study results
  • Presence of acute or chronic bleeding or clotting disorder that would contraindicate IM injections, or use of blood thinners within 2 weeks of Day 0
  • Participation in an interventional study with an investigational compound or device within 30 days of signing informed consent
  • Less than two acceptable sites available for IM injection
