Human Papillomavirus clinical trials at UCLA
9 in progress, 2 open to eligible people
Patients With HPV16+ Recurrent/Metastatic Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Other Cancers
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
This is a First in Human (FIH) Phase I/II, multinational, multicenter, open-label study of HB-201 single vector therapy and HB-201 & HB-202 two-vector therapy in patients with HPV 16+ confirmed cancers comprising two parts: Phase I Dose Escalation and Phase II Dose Expansion.

HPV 9-10 Trial: Early Initiation of HPV Vaccination
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
Every year, thousands of Americans die from cancers related to human papillomavirus (HPV). The vast majority of those deaths could be prevented with a safe and effective vaccine, yet many parents choose not have their children vaccinated when it is recommended at age 11 or 12. In this study, we will examine in a randomized trial whether earlier initiation of the vaccine at age 9-10 years will result in less parental refusal and higher rates of full vaccination at younger ages, before early sexual activity begins.

System Interventions to Increase HPV Vaccine Receipt in FQHCs
Sorry, accepting new patients by invitation only
UCLA and Northeast Valley Health Center (NEVHC), a large, multi-site Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC), are partnering to address underutilization of the prophylactic HPV vaccine among underserved, ethnic minority adolescents receiving care through FQHCs. We will use a cluster randomized 2x2 stepped-wedge factorial study design, implemented in seven NEVHC clinics, to compare the effectiveness of parent reminders (mailed and text), multi-component clinic system strategies, a combined intervention (parent reminders + clinic system strategies) and usual care on HPV vaccine series completion among NEVHC adolescent patients. FQHCs provide essential health care to underserved groups and have the infrastructure to sustain effective strategies to improve preventive care delivery. Therefore, study findings will be invaluable for informing future efforts to improve HPV vaccination at the population-level.

Anal Cytology Collection Procedures in Predicting High-Grade Anal Dysplasia in Men Who Have Sex With Men
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
This clinical trial compares three anal cytology collection procedures (collected at a single visit) in men who have sex with men (MSM). It also compares two different tests for human papilloma virus, the virus that causes high grade anal dysplasia, which is thought to occur before anal cancer. This study may help doctors develop better screening for high-grade anal dysplasia in MSM in order to identify those who need to return for additional screening and treatment.

CA-IX, p16, Proliferative Markers, and HPV in Diagnosing Cervical Lesions in Patients With Abnormal Cervical Cells
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
This research trial studies carbonic anhydrase 9 (CA-IX), p16, proliferative markers, and human papilloma virus (HPV) in diagnosing cervical lesions in patients with abnormal cervical cells. Studying biomarkers in abnormal cervical cells may improve the ability to find cervical lesions and plan effective treatment.

Recombinant Human Papillomavirus Nonavalent Vaccine in Preventing Human Papilloma Virus in Younger Healthy Participants
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a common sexually-transmitted virus which causes infections that usually last only a few months, but sometimes can last a long time and cause cancers of the cervix, vagina, vulva, anus or oropharynx over many years among adults. This phase IIA trial studies how well does the nonavalent HPV vaccine (which can prevent nine different types of HPV) work when given in an alternative dosing schedule to heathy young research participants.

Transoral Surgery Followed By Low-Dose or Standard-Dose Radiation Therapy With or Without Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With HPV Positive Stage III-IVA Oropharyngeal Cancer
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
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.

Treatment in Preventing Anal Cancer in Patients With HIV and Anal High-Grade Lesions
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
The randomized phase of the trial compared topical or ablative treatment with active monitoring in preventing anal cancer in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL). Anal HSIL is tissue in the anal canal that has been damaged by infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) and is at risk for turning into anal cancer. The ANCHOR Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) determined that the primary study endpoint was completed, based on the data and statistical analysis presented to them on 07SEP2021. In the post-randomization phase of this trial, all enrolled participants are offered treatment for HSIL and/or follow-up, at the participant's choice.

HPV Vaccine Delayed Booster Trial
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
This is an extended follow-up study to follow-up study participants who received 1 booster dose of Gardasil 9 in the "HPV vaccine delayed booster trial." This was a prospective, single-arm, open-label, non-randomized, phase IIa trial among 9-11 year-old girls and boys to determine the immunogenicity after a single dose of the nonavalent HPV vaccine (Gardasil 9) over 24 months, with a delayed booster dose at 24 months and an optional booster at 30 months after the first dose. Participants provided blood specimens at 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30 months after the first dose. Serologic geometric mean titers (GMT) of the nine vaccine types (HPV 16/18/ 6/11/31/33/45/52/58) were measured at each time point. One hundred and thirty-three (133) participants received one booster dose at month 24 and elected not to receive the second booster at month 30. For this follow-up study, we anticipate that we will be able to accrue 120 participants from the original study who received just one booster dose. Participants who received one booster dose of Gardasil 9 will be contacted to return to the clinic to provide blood specimens at 48 (±3), 60 (±3), and 72 (±3) months after the priming dose. Serologic geometric mean titers (GMT) of the nine vaccine types (HPV 16/18/ 6/11/31/33/45/52/58) will be measured at each time point.
