NCT05285826

Brief Summary

This study will evaluate the efficacy, immunogenicity, and safety of 9-valent human papillomavirus (9vHPV; V503) vaccine in Chinese men 20 to 45 years of age. It will enroll heterosexual men (HM) and men who have sex with men (MSM), will be stratified by age and sexual orientation, and will have two stages. The primary hypothesis of Stage I is: 9vHPV vaccine reduces the combined incidence of HPV 6-, 11-, 16-, 18-, 31-, 33-, 45-, 52-, and 58-related external genital and intra-anal 12-month persistent infection (PI) compared with placebo in males 20 to 45 years of age who are seronegative at Day 1 and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) negative from Day 1 through one month post-Dose 3 to the relevant HPV type. The primary hypothesis of Stages I and II combined is: 9vHPV vaccine reduces the combined incidence of HPV 6-, 11-, 16-, 18-, 31-, 33-, 45-, 52-, and 58-related genital warts, penile/perianal/perineal intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN), or penile/perianal/perineal cancer compared with placebo in males 20 to 45 years of age who are seronegative at Day 1 and PCR negative from Day 1 through one month post-Dose 3 to the relevant HPV type.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Stage I: Combined Incidence of HPV 6-, 11-, 16-, 18-, 31-, 33-, 45-, 52-, and 58-related External Genital and Intra-anal 12-month Persistent Infection

    This endpoint is defined as having occurred if a participant is positive for the same HPV type by the HPV PCR assay in the penile, scrotum, perineal, perianal and intra-anal swabs, biopsy, or excised samples obtained in 3 or more consecutive visits over a period of at least 12 months.

    Up to approximately 30 months

  • Stages I and II: Combined Incidence of HPV 6-, 11-, 16-, 18-, 31-, 33-, 45-, 52-, and 58-related Genital Warts, PIN, or Penile/Perianal/Perineal Cancer

    This endpoint is defined as having occurred if on a single biopsy or excised tissue from a participant, there is: (a) a pathology panel consensus diagnosis of genital warts, PIN of any grade, or penile/perianal/perineal cancer; and (b) detection of at least 1 of HPV types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52 or 58 by Thinsection PCR in an adjacent section from the same tissue block.

    Up to approximately 78 months

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Stage 1: Combined Incidence of HPV 6-, 11-, 16-, 18-, 31-, 33-, 45-, 52-, and 58-related External Genital and Intra-anal 6-month Persistent Infection

    Up to approximately 30 months

  • Stage 1: Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) to HPV Types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58 at One Month Post-Dose 3

    Month 7

  • Stage 1: Percentage of Participants Achieving Seroconversion to HPV 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, or 58 at One Month Post-Dose 3

    Month 7

  • Stage I: Percentage of Participants Who Report at Least 1 Solicited Injection-site Adverse Event (AE)

    Day 1 through Day 8 following any vaccination

  • Stage I: Percentage of Participants Who Report at Least 1 Solicited Systemic AE

    Day 1 through Day 8 following any vaccination

  • +3 more secondary outcomes
