Study summary

This is an open-label, single-center, investigator-initiated exploratory trial evaluating NWRD09 in 10 participants with persistent HPV16 infection in the anal region.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, single-center, investigator-initiated clinical trial (IIT) designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of NWRD09 in patients with persistent HPV16 infection localized to the anal region. A total of 10 participants will be enrolled and allocated to two parallel treatment groups. Participants are assigned to two parallel treatment groups, with one sentinel participant per group. Sentinel safety observation over 7 days post-first dose precedes enrollment of subsequent participants. Objectives include assessment of safety/tolerability, HPV16 DNA clearance, cytological regression, histopathological improvement (for baseline AIN1), and cellular immune responses through Week 28.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Female and male, aged 18 to 60 years (inclusive).
  2. HPV DNA genotyping of anal specimens demonstrates positivity for HPV16, with documented persistence for at least 12 months (≥12 months).
  3. Histopathological findings show low-grade lesion, inflammation, or no abnormality.
  4. Adequate organ function within 4 week before the first dose.
  5. For premenopausal women of : a negative serum pregnancy test within 4 weeks before the first dose. Eligible participants of childbearing potential and their partners must agree to use highly effective throughout the trial and for 6 months after the last study dose.
  6. Ability to understand the study and voluntarily provide written (ICF), willingness and ability to communicate effectively with the investigator, and to comply with all protocol-required treatment, examinations, and visits.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Any histopathologically confirmed adenocarcinoma/adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), high-grade cervical, vulvar, vaginal, or anal intraepithelial neoplasia, or invasive cancer.
  2. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or those planning to become pregnant during the study period.
  3. Participation in another clinical trial within 30 days prior to screening, or currently being in the follow-up period of another clinical trial.
  4. Continuous use (for >1 week) of systemic at a dose equivalent to >10 mg/day of prednisone within 30 days prior to screening, with the exception of hormone replacement therapy and topical administration (e.g., intratracheal, ophthalmic).
  5. Continuous use (for >1 week) of (e.g., cyclosporine, tacrolimus, azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, antilymphocyte globulin) within 30 days prior to screening.
  6. Receipt of any inactivated or within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug.
  7. Receipt of any AIN-related drug or physical therapy within 4 weeks prior to the first dose.
  8. History of any therapeutic HPV vaccination (prior receipt of licensed prophylactic HPV vaccines is acceptable).
  9. Use of blood or blood-related products (including immunoglobulins) within 3 months prior to the first dose, or planned use during the study period.
  10. History of immunodeficiency or disease (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, etc.).
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Live vaccines

Vaccines made with a weakened form of the germ, such as measles–mumps–rubella (MMR), chickenpox and yellow fever. They can be risky when the immune system is weakened. Flu injections are not live; the nasal flu spray is.

Autoimmune disease

A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.

Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence and severity of local and systemic adverse events (AEs).

    Based on the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) V6.0, adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) will be monitored.

    Time frame: Up to 28 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Proportion of participants with virologically-proven clearance of HPV 16 at week 16.

    The number of participants with virologically-proven clearance of HPV 16 at week 16.

    Time frame: Week 16

  2. Proportion of participants with virologically-proven clearance of HPV 16 at week 28.

    The number of participants with virologically-proven clearance of HPV 16 at week 28.

    Time frame: Week 28

  3. Proportion of participants with virologically-proven clearance of HPV 16 at weeks 16 and 28.

    The number of participants with virologically-proven clearance of HPV 16 at weeks 16 and 28.

    Time frame: Weeks 16、28

  4. Proportion of participants with baseline AIN1 showing histopathological regression to no lesions at 28 weeks after the first dose.

    The number of participants with AIN1 showing histopathological regression to no lesions at week 28.

    Time frame: Week 28

  5. Levels of cellular immune responses.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jul 17, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
