A phase 1, single centre, open label, escalating dose study to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a therapeutic human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA vaccine (AMV002) for HPV-associated head and neck cancer (HNC).

ABSTRACT:

Background

We conducted a phase 1 dose escalation study (ACTRN12618000140257 registered on 30/01/2018) to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a therapeutic human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA vaccine (AMV002) in subjects previously treated for HPV-associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC).

Methods

Eligible subjects had to have no evidence of recurrent and/or metastatic disease at least 12 weeks following the completion of treatment. Three dosing cohorts each consisted of four subjects: group 1: 0.25 mg/dose, group 2: 1 mg/dose, group 3: 4 mg/dose. AMV002 was delivered intradermally on days 0, 28 and 56. Incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) including local reaction at the injection site, and vaccination compliance we
