Persistent infection of cervical epithelium with "high risk" human papillomavirus (HPV) results in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) from which squamous cancer of the cervix can arise. A study was undertaken to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of an HPV16 immunotherapeutic consisting of a mixture of HPV16 E6E7 fusion protein and ISCOMATRIX adjuvant (HPV16 Immunotherapeutic) for patients with CIN.
Patients with CIN (n = 31) were recruited to a randomised blinded placebo controlled dose ranging study of immunotherapy.
Immunotherapy was well tolerated. Immunised subjects developed HPV16 E6E7 specific immunity. Antibody, delayed type hypersensitivity, in vitro cytokine release, and CD8 T cell responses to E6 and E7 proteins were each significantly greater in the immunised subjects than in placebo recipients. Loss of HPV16 DNA from the cervix was observed in some vaccine and placebo recipients.
The HPV16 Immunotherapeutic comprising HPV16E6E7 fusion protein and ISCOMATRIX adjuvant is safe and induces vaccine antigen specific cell mediated immunity.
宫颈上皮被“高危”人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)持续感染会导致宫颈上皮内瘤变(CIN),宫颈癌可由此发生。开展了一项研究,以评估一种由HPV16 E6E7融合蛋白与免疫刺激复合物基质佐剂组成的HPV16免疫疗法(HPV16免疫疗法)对CIN患者的安全性和免疫原性。
招募了31例CIN患者,进行免疫疗法的随机双盲安慰剂对照剂量范围研究。
免疫疗法耐受性良好。免疫受试者产生了HPV16 E6E7特异性免疫。免疫受试者中,抗体、迟发型超敏反应、体外细胞因子释放以及对E6和E7蛋白的CD8 T细胞反应均显著高于安慰剂接受者。在一些疫苗和安慰剂接受者中观察到宫颈HPV16 DNA丢失。
包含HPV16 E6E7融合蛋白和免疫刺激复合物基质佐剂的HPV16免疫疗法是安全的,并能诱导疫苗抗原特异性细胞介导免疫。
