Immunogenicity of quadrivalence recombinant human papillomavirus vaccine (6, 11, 16 and 18 types) (Hansenulapolymorpha): results from phaseⅠ clinical trial / 中华微生物学和免疫学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To make a preliminary assessment on the immunogenicity of a quadrivalence recombinant human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine (6, 11, 16 and 18 types) (Hansenulapolymorpha) in healthy women aged 18-45 years in phaseⅠclinical study.@*Methods@#It was a single-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phaseⅠ clinical study. Women aged 18-45 years were randomized (2∶1) to receive HPV vaccine (n=60) or placebo control (n=30) at months 0, 2 and 6. Antibodies against HPV6/11/16/18 were detected by pseudovirus-based neutralisation assay in serum samples collected at 0 d, 180 d and 210 d. Seroconversion rates and geometric mean titres (GMT) of antibodies against the four types of antigens were calculated.@*Results@#Seroconversion rates of the vaccination group at 180 d (before the third dose) and 210 d (one month after the third dose) were generally similar and between 85%-100% for all types of antibodies. The GMT of antibodies at one month after the last dose improved significantly compared with those before immunization.@*Conclusions@#These results showed that the HPV vaccine had good immunogenicity in the population of healthy women aged 18-45 years. Higher antibody titers were elicited by the vaccine compare with the tites before the first dose and in the placebo control group.
