NCT ID NCT03603808
First seen May 02, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tested a DNA-based vaccine called VGX-3100 in 44 HIV-positive adults with high-grade anal precancer caused by HPV types 16 or 18. The vaccine was given with a mild electrical pulse (electroporation) to help cells absorb it and boost the immune response. The goal was to see if the treatment could shrink or eliminate the precancerous lesions. The study was completed and measured how many participants had their lesions regress to low-grade or normal tissue after 48 weeks.
