Active clinical trials for "Papillomavirus Infections"

HIV-infected women are at high risk of developing cervical cancer. This is a 3-year cohort study nested in the already existing Program for HIV Prevention and Treatment (PHPT) cohort of HIV-infected patients in Thailand (NCT 00433030). The main objective is to assess the prevalence, incidence, and clearance rate of HPV cervical infection and associated cervical lesion. The study will also provide the distribution of the HPV genotypes involved as well as other risk factors of cervical lesions. HIV-infected women receiving antiretrovirals, older than18 years of age, followed in the PHPT cohort or in the same hospitals are proposed to participate. An annual gynecological examination with a Pap-smear and a sampling for HPV testing is performed. Women with abnormal Pap-smear or with High-Risk HPV (HR-HPV) infection receive a more intensive follow-up with a colposcopy and a biopsy if necessary. Treatment is provided according to the National Guidelines.

Video-assisted counseling has been shown to improve consistency of counseling regarding a wide variety of health-care related issues. West Cancer Center has shown a significant increase in breast cancer susceptibility gene testing in ovarian cancer patients following video-assisted counseling compared to traditional provider-led counseling. This trial is designed to determine if video-assisted counseling can improve HPV vaccination rates by providing consistent counseling in a timely fashion.

The MDL-SHPVP will be developed and a clustered randomised controlled trial will be conducted to evaluate the effects of the MDL-SHPVP and to examine whether the effect of the MDL-SHPVP on the rate of HPV vaccine uptake 1 year after intervention is mediated by parents'/guardians' and female adolescents' HPV knowledge, attitudes and beliefs, adolescents' intention to receive HPV vaccination and vaccine acceptance among their parents/guardians.

This PMS study aims to collect safety and reactogenicity data of Cervarix in the local population as per the licensing requirement of the Sri Lankan regulatory authority.

The purpose of this study is to determine the acceptability of HPV vaccination in postpartum women in Central Pennsylvania. Participants will be recruited while inpatient in the postpartum unit. Participants will complete a survey asking about knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs around vaccination, including HPV vaccination, as well as breastfeeding intentions. After survey completion, the participant will have the option to receive the HPV vaccine, Gardasil 9, prior to discharge from the hospital. All participants will then be contacted 1- week later for the follow-up survey.

This is a minimal risk, anonymous, convenience sample, social behavioral study using qualitative descriptive survey methods. It is to ascertain community member, physician, resident and medical student perspectives regarding Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection, associated diseases and to identify barriers which prevent these groups from ensuring that males 9-26 receive the three-shot vaccine series to prevent HPV infection. The research is focused on these questions: Do community members understand the ease of transmission of the HPV virus in males 9-26? Do community members, physicians, residents and medical students have knowledge of the associated diseases that may occur with the HPV virus infection in males age 9-26? Do community members, physicians, residents and medical students know the ages in which males should receive the HPV vaccine three-shot series? What barriers prevent community members and physicians, residents and medical students from ensuring that males 9-26 receive the three-shot vaccine series to prevent HPV infection?

In this prospective, open, controlled, cross-sectional observational study patients with psoriasis or IBD, who received either anti-TNF-alpha inhibitors or alternates (purine-, folic acid analogues, phototherapy, fumaric ester, mesalazine) for their underlying disease were included. Anogenital HPV-induced lesions, mucosal HPV DNA and serological status of mucosal low-risk (HPV6) and high-risk HPV (HPV16, HPV18) were determined.

Multicentric epidemiological non-comparative study in France characterising evolution of anal Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and related lesions and evaluating markers associated with the observed evolution. Estimated enrolment: 500 Principal Outcomes Detection of high-grade cytological and histological anal lesions by high resolution anoscopy Spontaneous regression of high-grade anal lesions Detection of anal HPV infection Intervention (procedure): Patient medical interview (initial inclusion visit, Month 12 and Month 24 follow-up visits and if applicable Month 6 and Month 18 control visits) Standard proctologic examination with digital rectal examination and 2 anal swabs (initial inclusion visit, Month 12 and Month 24 follow-up visits and if applicable Month 6 and Month 18 control visits) High resolution anoscopy (initial inclusion visit, Month 12 and Month 24 follow-up visits and if applicable Month 6 and Month 18 control visits) Only if lesion suggestive of Anal Intraepithelial Neoplasia (AIN) detected during High Resolution Anoscopy (HRA): - anal biopsy(ies) during HRA Only if high-grade lesion: - HRA biannually

The objective is to estimate the prevalence of the different genotypes of human papillomaviruses (HPV) in histologically proven high-grade lesions of the cervix in patients born between 1972 and 1993. It is plan to determine if the prevalence of HPV16 and HPV18 is lower in the population born between 1983 and 1993 and potentially exposed to HPV vaccination compared to those born between 1972 and 1982 who were not exposed to vaccination. Thus the investigators should be able to determine whether the introduction of HPV vaccination in France in 2007 has had an impact on the development of high-grade lesions associated with HPV16 and HPV18.

This study will assess the prevalence of HPV infection in perinatally HIV-infected adolescents, intraepithelial neoplasia, and E6E7 biomarker at cervical and anal sites.
