HUMAN PAPILLOMA VIRUS

This study looks at whether a 2-dose regimen of the Gardasil 9 HPV vaccine, given 12 months apart, triggers a strong immune response in children aged 4 to 8. The vaccine is currently approved for ages 9 and up, but this research explores if starting earlier could provide protecti…

This study looks at whether giving money to clinics can encourage doctors to talk about and offer the HPV vaccine more often. Some clinics get training on how to talk about the vaccine, while others get the same training plus a financial reward and monthly progress reports. The g…

This study in Tanzania tests whether one dose of the HPV vaccine works as well as the standard two or three doses in girls aged 9-14. Cervical cancer is a major killer in East Africa, and reducing the number of shots could cut costs and make vaccination more accessible. The trial…

This study looks at whether giving lower doses of radiation to a smaller area after robotic surgery can still keep HPV-positive throat cancer from coming back. About 150 adults with early-stage throat cancer will receive this gentler radiation plan. The goal is to see if two year…

This study tests two experimental vaccines (HB-201 and HB-202) given with standard chemotherapy drugs (carboplatin and paclitaxel) to people with HPV16-positive oropharyngeal cancer. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors enough to allow less intensive follow-up…

This study is checking if a new, low-cost HPV test called ScreenFire works as well as the standard test for finding cervical cancer risk. About 9,100 women aged 30-59 will use a self-collection method. The goal is to see if the test is accurate, reduces follow-up visits, and is c…

This study tests a program to help HIV-positive adults get the HPV vaccine, which can prevent HPV-related cancers. The program gives clinics and staff tools to encourage vaccination. Researchers will track how many people start and finish the vaccine series over two years.

This trial tests whether training primary care clinics to better use HPV vaccine standing orders can increase vaccination rates in children ages 9-12. Some clinics receive communication training alone, while others also get help optimizing their standing orders. The study uses va…

This study tests whether a single dose of the HPV vaccine (Gardasil 9) can prevent persistent HPV infection in women living with HIV who have already been vaccinated. About 778 women will receive either the HPV vaccine or a meningitis vaccine (placebo) and be monitored for safety…

This study is screening 1,500 adults for oral HPV infection and antibodies to build a group at higher risk for HPV-related throat cancer. Researchers will follow them over time to see which infections persist and what factors (like mouth bacteria or immune response) increase canc…
