Study Overview
Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from human papillomavirus may help the body build an effective immune response to kill HIV cells.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well human papillomavirus vaccine therapy works in treating men with HIV-1 infection.
Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To assess the safety and tolerability of quadrivalent human papillomavirus (HPV) (types 6, 11, 16, 18) recombinant vaccine in HIV-infected men.
- To assess the immunogenicity of the quadrivalent HPV vaccine for types 6, 11, 16 and 18 in subjects who are antibody-negative at baseline.
Secondary
- To evaluate the changes in plasma HIV-1 RNA and CD4+ count after the vaccination series.
- To describe the associations of CD4+ count, nadir CD4+ count, and age on antibody response.
- To evaluate the levels and persistence of HPV 6, 11, 16, and 18 antibody titers after the vaccination series among subjects according to serostatus at baseline.
- To evaluate the oral levels of serum IgA before and after the vaccination series.
