Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Percentage of Participants with No Evidence of Cervical HSIL on Histology and No Evidence of HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 in Cervical Samples at Week 36 [At Week 36]

    Participants will be evaluated for evidence of cervical HSIL on histology as well as evidence of HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 in cervical samples by type-specific HPV testing at the Week 36 visit.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Safety: Number of Participants with Any Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) Following Investigational Treatment and for the Duration of the Study [From baseline to Week 88]

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events. An SAE is any experience that suggested a significant hazard, contraindication, side effect, or precaution, and fulfilled any of the following criteria: fatal (resulted in death), life-threatening, required in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, was medically significant or required intervention to prevent any of the other outcomes listed here.

  2. Percentage of Participants with No Evidence of Cervical HSIL at Week 36 [At Week 36]

    Participants will be evaluated for evidence of cervical HSIL on histology at the Week 36 visit.

  3. Percentage of Participants with No Evidence of HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 in Cervical Samples at Week 36 [At Week 36]

    Participants will be evaluated for evidence of HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 in cervical samples by type-specific HPV testing.

  4. Percentage of Participants with No Evidence of Low Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (LSIL) or HSIL at Week 36 [At Week 36]

    Participants will be evaluated for evidence of LSIL (i.e. slightly abnormal cells on the surface of the cervix) or HSIL (i.e. evidence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1 [CIN1], CIN2 or CIN3 on biopsies or excisional treatment) on histology at the Week 36 visit.

  5. Percentage of Participants with No Evidence of LSIL or HSIL and No Evidence of HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 at Week 36 [At Week 36]

    Participants will be evaluated for evidence of LSIL (i.e. slightly abnormal cells on the surface of the cervix) or HSIL (i.e. evidence of CIN1, CIN2 or CIN3 on biopsies or excisional treatment) on histology and no evidence of HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 by type-specific HPV testing at the Week 36 visit.

  6. Percentage of Participants with No Progression of Cervical HSIL to Cervical Carcinoma from Baseline to Week 36 [At Week 36]

    Participants will be evaluated for progression of cervical HSIL to cervical carcinoma from baseline on histology at the Week 36 visit.

  7. Percentage of Participants Who Have Cleared HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 in Non-cervical Anatomic Locations at Week 36 [At Week 36]

    Participants will be evaluated for HPV-16 and/or HPV-18 status in specimens from non-cervical anatomic locations at the Week 36 Visit.

  8. Change from Baseline in Levels of Serum Anti-HPV-16 and Anti-HPV-18 Antibody Concentrations [At baseline, Week 15 and Week 36]

    Levels of anti-HPV-16 and anti-HPV-18 antibody concentrations will be measured in serum samples of participants using a standardized assay at baseline, Week 15 and Week 36.

  9. Change from Baseline in Interferon-Gamma Response Magnitude [At baseline, Week 15 and Week 36.]

    Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) will be isolated from whole blood samples collected at baseline, Week 15 and Week 36. Assessment of cellular immune activity will be performed.

  10. Change from Baseline in Flow Cytometry Response Magnitude [At baseline, Week 15]

    Assessment of cellular immune activity will be performed using flow cytometry.
