Safety Study of Multikine in the Treatment of Perianal Warts

Phase 1TerminatedNCT02115919

United States Naval Medical Center, San Diego4 enrolled

Overview

Caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), anogenital warts are a common sexually-transmitted infection (STI). They are distressing to those who have them and are a source of viral shedding and transmission to others. Treatment of warts is aimed at destruction of the lesion. Objectives: 1. Establish safety of Multikine in treatment of perianal condyloma. 2. Describe presence of anal HPV and anal dysplasia in participants with perianal condyloma. 3. Describe adverse effects associated with Multikine in the management of perianal condyloma. Design: Phase I, dose-escalation trial. Potential participants desiring treatment for their perianal warts will be referred to study by their primary clinician. All participants will undergo baseline anal Pap, anal HPV subtyping, perianal condyloma characterization (count, measurement, photography), and complete a baseline questionnaire. Cohort A participants will undergo perilesional Multikine injections (200IU) once daily, Monday through Friday, for 14 days, off for 14 days, then again once daily, Monday through Friday for 14 days. If no serious adverse events are noted after 4 weeks of therapy, cohort B will be studied using the same schedule but with a dose of 400IU per treatment. Each participant will undergo anal Pap and anal HPV subtyping once weekly during treatment. Condyloma characterization (count, measurement, photography) will occur prior to each treatment. After treatment completed, participants will complete a follow-up visit at 70, 100, 130, 160 days and have anal Pap, anal HPV subtyping, and perianal condyloma characterization (count, measurement, photography) performed. Subjects: The study will be open to adult men and women who are HIV-infected who receive medical care from the Naval Medical Center San Diego. Main Outcome Measures: 1. Perianal wart characterization \[count, measurement (in millimeters diameter)\], photography) 2. HPV subtype in anal canal 3. Anal dysplasia cytologic grade 4. Questionnaire responses 5. Adverse effects experienced during treatment, recorded in symptom log

Leukocyte Interleukin, Injection 200IUDRUG

Cohort A participants will receive 200IU Multikine perilesional injections once daily, Monday through Friday, for 14 days, then 14 days off with out any Multikine injections received. After the 14 days without receiving the Investigational Product injections they will begin a second round of 200IU Multikine perilesional injections once daily, Monday through Friday for 14 days.

Leukocyte Interleukin, injection 400IUDRUG

Cohort B participants will receive 400IU Multikine perilesional injections once daily, Monday through Friday, for 14 days, then they will not receive any Multikine perilesional injections for 14 days. After the 14 day rest period when the participants did not receive the Investigational Product injections they will begin a second round of 400IU Multikine perilesional injections every day, Monday through Friday, for 14 days.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Wart characterization change is being assessed

Perianal wart characterization includes counting the number of identified warts, the diameter measurement of each identified wart in millimeters and the photographic imaging of each identified wart during the treatment phase and the follow-up phase of the study

Time frame: Days 0, 4, 11, 32, 39, 70, 100, 130, 160

Secondary Outcomes

HPV subtype identification change is being assessed

HPV subtype identification specimen collection from the anal canal will be conducted during the treatment phase and the follow-up phase of the study

Time frame: Days 0, 4, 11, 32, 39, 70, 100, 130, 160

Anal dysplasia cytologic grade change is being assessed

Anal dysplasia cytologic specimen collection will take place during the treatment phase and the follow-up phase of the study

Time frame: Days 0, 4, 11, 32, 39, 70, 100, 130, 160

Adverse effects during the treatment phase of the study are being assessed

Adverse effects experienced during the treatment phase of the study are recorded by the study participants in a symptoms log

Time frame: Days 0, 4, 11, 32, 39, 70, 100, 130, 160
