Active clinical trials for "Condylomata Acuminata"

The adolescence is a landmark in perceiving the sexuality and awareness about the sexual experiences. Genitals warts were shown to be a potential risk to impair the sexual functions in women. Adolescence is a vulnerable period in which the individuals may be prone to the negative effects of the disorders affecting sexual functions such as genital warts. The current study aimed to investigate the impact of genital warts on sexual functions in female adolescents.

In the present study the investigators assessed the invitro role of IL-4 and IFN-γ in predicting the response to bivalent HPV vaccine after whole blood stimulation

Counteracting misinformation on childhood vaccines remains a priority for public health in industrialized countries. Previous research showed that misinformation-induced vaccine hesitancy particularly concerns very highly or very lowly educated parents, and, especially in Europe, specific groups of immigrants. Misinformation framing directly targets specific sub-population of parents by exploiting different cognitive biases, and specific concerns based on cultural norms: this project aims at testing the effectiveness of similar framing techniques applied to positive information on the HPV vaccine by conducting a Randomized Controlled Trial in Stockholm, Sweden. It randomizes emotionally and scientifically/statistically framed information addressing the specific concerns reported by previous literature.

Randomized, 2-arm observational study. The 2 arms (randomized at the level of health care provider) will be: 1. usual practice; 2. automated reminders to recommend 2nd and 3rd doses of HPV vaccine for eligible male and female adolescents who have initiated vaccination.

Overview and rationale: Through Swedish health care registers it is possible vaccine effectiveness. The overall aim is to develop tools for fast and reliable evaluation of vaccines focusing on effectiveness. In this study the investigators will assess the population impact on condyloma prescribed drugs after HPV-vaccination and to estimate the economic burden of hospitalizations due to condyloma. Genital warts (condyloma) are one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases in Sweden, estimated 20 000 identified cases per year, and are primarily treated with Podofyllotoxin and Immiquimod. One of the approved HPV vaccines also protects against condyloma. In clinical trials, this vaccine is safe and highly efficacious (90-100%) against persistent infection with HPV 6 and 11 and genital warts in women and men. However, these results are from clinical trials and do not answer the question weather the vaccine works when delivered, as it would be in the real world. By linkage between the Svevac, the patient register and the Drug prescription register the investigators can estimate the effectiveness of the HPV vaccine in preventing cases of condyloma in a defined population. Method and execution: This is a retrospective collection of data from Swedish health care registries where the study population will consist of persons who are HPV-vaccinated as well as a non-HPV-vaccinated control group (identified through the population-based register, matched on sex, age and living area). The primary statistical analysis will be a calculation of prescriptions of condyloma treatments after vaccination compared to the non-vaccinated control group.

The purpose of this study was to determine if delayed dosing of recombinant human papillomavirus (HPV) quadrivalent (Types 6, 11, 16, and 18) vaccine in 9-18 year old girls elicited an equivalent immune response (geometric mean titers to HPV 6,11,16, and 18 as measured one month after receipt of a 3rd dose of HPV vaccine) when compared to vaccine delivered according to the recommended dosing schedule. This was a prospective observational study of healthy 9-18 year old female patients receiving either a second or third dose of HPV vaccine as part of their well child care. Immune responses to HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18 were measured both before and 1 month after the third dose of HPV vaccine with the purpose of comparing the immune responses to HPV vaccine when administered at naturally occurring longer dosing intervals to the immune response to HPV vaccine when administered as routinely recommended. In addition, girls receiving a 3rd dose of HPV vaccine as well as concomitantly administered vaccines by injection were randomized to receive either the HPV vaccine first or their concomitantly administered vaccines first. Pain following vaccination was assessed in each arm using the Faces Pain Scale - Revised. Please note: This record refers only to the observational portion of the study. Please refer to NCT00862810 for the results of the randomized portion of the study.

Transplant-related malignancies have emerged as one of the important complications after organ transplantation. Some studies have shown that transplant recipients have an increased risk of developing cancer, especially non-melanoma skin cancer. Because of iatrogenic immunosuppression in these patients, there is an increasing focus on human papillomavirus (HPV) related cancers. The occurrence of HPV infection and ano-genital precancerous lesions and genital warts among Danish renal transplant recipients (RTRs) is not known. Relatively few controlled studies exist on the prevalence of ano-genital HPV infection, anal precancerous lesions and cervical precancerous lesions among RTRs. Knowledge about HPV infection and HPV-related ano-genital precancerous lesions in renal transplant recipients, together with identification of factors that play a role for development of anal and cervical precancerous lesions, is important for the possibility of early detection and treatment to prevent progression to ano-genital cancers. Cervical cytology has been used for decades to detect cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia (CIN), whereas high-resolution anoscopy is a newer modality for the detection of anal intra-epithelial neoplasia (AIN). International guidelines recommend annually screening against cervical cancer for female renal transplant recipients, but currently no recommendation exists on screening against anal cancer. Aim: In a clinical study it is the aim to examine the prevalence of anal, penile, oral and cervical HPV infection as well as ano-genital dysplasia and ano-genital warts among 250 renal transplant recipients and an immunocompetent control group. Furthermore to identify factors associated with the development of AIN or CIN such as HPV type, viral load, duration of immunosuppression, and lifestyle factors such as sexual habits, reproductive history, smoking and alcohol habits, history of genital warts and other infections, and socio-economic variables.

The summary of this study is to know which HPV types are present in genital warts in Argentinean population.

primary purpose:Evaluate the prevalence and incidence of HPV infection and related diseases in subjects. Secondary purpose:Analyze risk factors of HPV infection and related diseases.

The primary objective of this study is to determine the role of genital warts (GW) on Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) acquisition among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Peru. The secondary objectives are to determine Human Papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence in HIV positive MSM in Peru, risk factors associated with GW, and the knowledge of HPV and HIV among MSM.
