Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV)-related diseases are highly prevalent in men worldwide, comprising external anogenital condyloma, anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN), penile intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN), and anogenital and oropharyngeal cancers. There is exceptionally low vaccine coverage in the male population. Only 4% of men were fully vaccinated, worldwide, as of 2019. The aim of this review is to assess the impact of HPV vaccination on male disease. Three databases (MEDLINE, Web of Science, Scopus) and Clinical Trials.gov were searched. We included thirteen studies, eight randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and five cohorts, comprising a total of 14,239 participants. Regarding anal disease, seven studies reported HPV vaccine efficacy ranging from 91.1% to 93.1% against AIN1, and ranging from 89.6% to 91.7% against AIN2|3 and anal cancer. Five studies showed an efficacy against genital condyloma of 89.9% in HPV-naïve males, varying between 66.7% and 67.2% in intention-to-treat populations. Studies reporting no efficacy have included older participants. These results support vaccination of young men previously infected, beyond HPV-naïve males. The evidence quality was moderate to low for most outcomes, namely genital diseases. RCTs are needed to assess the efficacy of HPV vaccination on male oropharyngeal cancer.

Immunogenicity, safety, and efficacy of the HPV vaccines among people living with HIV: A systematic review and meta-analysis. EClinicalMedicine 2022; 52:101585. [PMID: 35936024 PMCID: PMC9350866 DOI: 10.1016/j.eclinm.2022.101585] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/08/2022] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Vaccines have been demonstrated to protect against high-risk human papillomavirus infection (HPV), including HPV-16/18, and cervical lesions among HIV negative women. However, their efficacy remains uncertain for people living with HIV (PLHIV).We systematically reviewed available evidence on HPV vaccine on immunological, virological, or other biological outcomes in PLHIV. Methods We searched five electronic databases (PubMed, Medline and Embase, clinicaltrials.gov and the WHO clinical trial database) for longitudinal prospective studies reporting immunogenicity, virological, cytological, histological, clinical or safety endpoints following prophylactic HPV vaccination among PLHIV. We included studies published by February 11th, 2021. We summarized results, assessed study quality, and conducted meta-analysis and subgroup analyses, where possible. Findings We identified 43 publications stemming from 18 independent studies (Ns =18), evaluating the quadrivalent (Ns =15), bivalent (Ns =4) and nonavalent (Ns =1) vaccines. A high proportion seroconverted for the HPV vaccine types. Pooled proportion seropositive by 28 weeks following 3 doses with the bivalent, quadrivalent, and nonavalent vaccines were 0.99 (95% confidence interval: 0.95-1.00, Ns =1), 0.99 (0.98-1.00, Ns =9), and 1.00 (0.99-1.00, Ns =1) for HPV-16 and 0.99 (0.96-1.00, Ns =1), 0.94 (0.91-0.96, Ns =9), and 1.00 (0.99-1.00, Ns =1) for HPV-18, respectively. Seropositivity remained high among people who received 3 doses despite some declines in antibody titers and lower seropositivity over time, especially for HPV-18, for the quadrivalent than the bivalent vaccine, and for HIV positive than negative individuals. Seropositivity for HPV-18 at 29-99 weeks among PLHIV was 0.72 (0.66-0.79, Ns =8) and 0.96 (0.92-0.99, Ns =2) after 3 doses of the quadrivalent and bivalent vaccine, respectively and 0.94 (0.90-0.98, Ns =3) among HIV-negative historical controls. Evidence suggests that the seropositivity after vaccination declines over time but it can lasts at least 2-4 years. The vaccines were deemed safe among PLHIV with few serious adverse events. Evidence of HPV vaccine efficacy against acquisition of HPV infection and/or associated disease from the eight trials available was inconclusive due to the low quality. Interpretation PLHIV have a robust and safe immune response to HPV vaccination. Antibody titers and seropositivity rates decline over time but remain high. The lack of a formal correlate of protection and efficacy results preclude definitive conclusions on the clinical benefits. Nevertheless, given the burden of HPV disease in PLHIV, although the protection may be shorter or less robust against HPV-18, the robust immune response suggests that PLHIV may benefit from receiving HPV vaccination after acquiring HIV. Better quality studies are needed to demonstrate the clinical efficacy among PLHIV. Funding World Health Organization.

Infection 2022; 50:617-623. [PMID: 34694595 PMCID: PMC8543429 DOI: 10.1007/s15010-021-01721-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2021] [Accepted: 10/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To describe the humoral immune response to COVID-19 vaccines in people living with HIV and identify factors associated with the magnitude of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody concentrations. METHODS Retrospective analysis of electronic patient files in a big single HIV center in Munich, Germany. Non-parametric methods were used for descriptive and comparative statistics. Generalized linear models were used to analyze associations of general and HIV-specific variables with anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody concentrations after standard vaccination. RESULT Overall, 665 people living with HIV were included into the analysis (median age: 53 [IQR: 43; 59]), 560 [84.2%] males). Median concentration of anti-SARS-CoV-2-antibodies was 1400 (IQR 664; 2130) BAU/mL. In 18 (2.7%) subjects, antibody concentrations below the threshold of 34 BAU/mL were found. Among PLWH with CD4 cell count < 200 cells/µL, median anti-SARS-CoV-2-Abs were 197 (IQR 44.6; 537.2) as compared to 1420 (IQR 687; 2216) for the group ≥ 200 cells/µL (p < 0.001). In a cumulative logit model, a vaccination scheme including an mRNA vaccine [OR: 4.64 (3.58; 6.02)], being female [OR: 2.14 (1.76; 2.61)], and having higher CD4 cells [OR per 100 cells/µL: 1.06 (1.04; 1.08)] were significantly associated with anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody concentrations in higher quartiles, when adjusted for the time after vaccination. CONCLUSION We found a robust antibody response in people living with HIV undergoing standard vaccination against SARS-CoV-2. mRNA-containing vaccination schemes, being female, and having a higher CD4 cell count was associated with a higher concentration of antibodies in people living with HIV in our study sample. Particularly in the subgroup with CD4 cell counts < 200 cells/µL, antibody response was poor.

Immunogenicity of a Two-Dose Human Papillomavirus Vaccine Schedule in HIV-Infected Adolescents with Immune Reconstitution. Vaccines (Basel) 2022; 10:vaccines10010118. [PMID: 35062779 PMCID: PMC8779595 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines10010118] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2021] [Revised: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 01/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
HIV-infected patients are at increased risk of human papillomavirus (HPV) acquisition and HPV-associated diseases. This study set out to determine whether a two-dose (2D) HPV vaccination schedule was sufficient in HIV-infected adolescents with immune reconstitution (IR) following antiretroviral treatment. Participants aged 9–15 years who had CD4 cell counts > 500 cells/mm3 and HIV-1 RNA < 40 copies/mL for at least one year were assigned to the 2D schedule, while older participants or those without IR received a three-dose (3D) schedule. Antibodies to HPV-16 and -18 were measured using a pseudovirion-based neutralization assay. A total of 96 subjects were enrolled; 31.3% and 68.7% received the 2D and 3D schedule, respectively. Of these, 66.7% and 57.6% of the 2D and 3D participants, respectively, were male. The seroconversion rates for HPV-16 and HPV-18 were 100% in all cases, except for HPV-18 in males who received the 3D schedule (97.4%). In males, the anti-HPV-16 geometric mean titers (GMTs) were 6859.3 (95% confidence interval, 4394.3–10,707.1) and 7011.1 (4648.8–10,573.9) in the 2D and 3D groups (p = 0.946), respectively, and the anti-HPV-18 GMTs were 2039.3 (1432.2–2903.8) and 2859.8 (1810.0–4518.4) in the 2D and 3D (p = 0.313) groups, respectively. In females, the anti-HPV-16 GMTs were 15,758.7 (8868.0–28,003.4) and 26,241.6 (16,972.7–40,572.3) in the 2D and 3D groups (p = 0.197), respectively, and the anti-HPV-18 GMTs were 5971.4 (3026.8–11,780.6) and 9993.1 (5950.8–16,781.1) in the 2D and 3D groups (p = 0.271), respectively. In summary, a 2D schedule is as immunogenic in young adolescents with IR as a 3D schedule in older subjects and those without IR.

Abstract
The safety of COVID-19 vaccines, as was the case last year, remains a large part of the focus in this volume. COVID-19 placed a large magnifying glass on both vaccines, specifically vaccine safety. This was most readily apparent as the number of records in VAERS ballooned to about 10 times the size from 2020 to 2021 (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), 2022) [S]. While we have added and/or improved VAERS during COVID-19, including adding or improving other vaccine safety surveillance tools like v-safe and vaccine safety datalink (Blumenthal, Phadke, et al., 2021) [MC], there is still room for improvement in these pharmacovigilance tools (Rizk et al., 2021) [r]. A major global initiative in this realm is the Global Vaccines Safety Blueprint 2.0 (GVSB2.0) (Organization, 2021, pp. 2021–2023) [S]. We wholeheartedly endorse these initiatives, which could significantly improve vaccine safety. As noted in past SEDA issues, clinicians should be mindful of the risks of AEs and SAEs associated with each individual vaccine.

HPV vaccination to prevent recurrence of anal intraepithelial neoplasia in HIV+ MSM. AIDS 2021; 35:1753-1764.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Anal cancer precursor lesions high-grade anal intraepithelial neoplasia (HGAIN) are highly prevalent among HIV+ MSM. Treatment of HGAIN is frustrated by high recurrence rates. We investigated the efficacy of the quadrivalent human papillomavirus (qHPV) vaccine as posttreatment adjuvant in preventing HGAIN recurrence in HIV+ MSM. DESIGN Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre trial. SETTING Three HIV outpatient clinics in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. SUBJECTS HIV+ MSM with CD4+ cell count more than 350 cells/μl, biopsy-proven intra-anal HGAIN successfully treated in the past year, and lesions still in remission at enrolment, as assessed by high-resolution anoscopy (HRA). INTERVENTION Participants were randomized to three doses of qHPV (Gardasil-4, MSD) or placebo with vaccinations at 0, 2, and 6 months. HRA was repeated at 6, 12, and 18 months. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE The primary outcome was cumulative, biopsy-proven HGAIN recurrence rate at 18 months, evaluated in an intention-to-treat (ITT) (received all vaccinations) and per-protocol analysis (all vaccinations and complete follow-up). RESULTS We randomized 126 participants of which 64 (50.8%) received qHPV and 62 (49.2%) placebo. All participants received three vaccinations, and in both groups for two participants follow-up was incomplete. We found no difference (P = 0.38) in cumulative HGAIN recurrence rates between the qHPV (44/64, 68.8%) and placebo group (38/62, 61.3%) in the ITT analysis [absolute risk reduction -7.5 (95% confidence interval (CI) -24.1 to 9.2)]. This was similar in the per-protocol analysis. CONCLUSION Despite adequate serological responses to qHPV vaccination, short-term recurrence of HGAIN was not prevented. These findings do not support qHPV vaccination as a treatment adjuvant to prevent HGAIN recurrence in HIV+ MSM.

Abstract
The prophylactic vaccines available to protect against infections by HPV are well tolerated and highly immunogenic. People with HIV have a higher risk of developing HPV infection and HPV-associated cancers due to a lower immune response, and due to viral interactions. We performed a systematic review of RCTs to assess HPV vaccines efficacy and safety on HIV-infected people compared to placebo or no intervention in terms of seroconversion, infections, neoplasms, adverse events, CD4+ T-cell count and HIV viral load. The vaccine-group showed a seroconversion rate close to 100% for each vaccine and a significantly higher level of antibodies against HPV vaccine types, as compared to the placebo group (MD = 4333.3, 95% CI 2701.4; 5965.1 GMT EL.U./ml for HPV type 16 and MD = 1408.8, 95% CI 414.8; 2394.7 GMT EL.U./ml for HPV type 18). There were also no differences in terms of severe adverse events (RR = 0.6, 95% CI 0.2; 1.6) and no severe adverse events (RR = 0.6, 95% CI 0.9; 1.2) between vaccine and placebo groups. Secondary outcomes, such as CD4 + T-cell count and HIV viral load, did not differ between groups (MD = 14.8, 95% CI - 35.1; 64.6 cells/µl and MD = 0.0, 95% CI - 0.3; 0.3 log10 RNA copies/ml, respectively). Information on the remaining outcomes was scarce and that did not allow us to combine the data. The results support the use of the HPV vaccine in HIV-infected patients and highlight the need of further RCTs assessing the effectiveness of the HPV vaccine on infections and neoplasms.

Abstract
The current evidence regarding the prevalence of subclinical carotid atherosclerosis (SCA) for people living with HIV(PLWH) is inconsistent. In this study, we aimed to synthesize data on the prevalence and association of SCA patients with HIV infection. We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Medline, SinoMed, and CNKI from inception to March 2, 2020. The pooled proportion, odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. For inclusion, SCA was measured by carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), with a B-mode ultrasound machine. Twenty-six studies consisting of 6590 participants were identified. The overall prevalence of SCA was 31.6% (95% CI 13.4-53.3; I2 = 99%; 4 studies) according to CIMT ≥ 0.78 mm criteria, and 32.3% (19.6-46.4; 97%; 10 studies) according to CIMT ≥ 0.90 mm criteria. SCA prevalence was higher in Europe, over 40 years old and male. What's more, PLWH have a higher likelihood of developing SCA comorbidity than HIV-negative controls (pooled OR 2.66, 95% CI 1.57-4.50, I2 = 74%; 9 studies), even after sensitivity analysis (pooled OR 2.58, 1.54-4.31, 73%). This study suggests a high prevalence and risk of SCA in the global population with HIV. As a result, subclinical carotid atherosclerosis deserves more attention from policymakers, HIV health-care providers, researchers, and stakeholders.

Abstract
In this volume of the Side Effects of Drugs Annual, although other vaccines will be covered, the safety of COVID vaccines is the focus as COVID-19 has led to heightened attention on vaccine safety in general. As such, this chapter will be more relevant than ever before. As noted in past SEDA issues, clinicians should be mindful of the risks of AEs and SAEs associated with each vaccine.

Abstract
In high income setting, the massive implementation of screening programs has reduced the incidence of cervical cancer, dramatically. However, cervical cancer still remains a major health concern, being one of the most common cause of death for cancer among women. The adoption of primary prevention through vaccination against HPV aims to reduce the prevalence of HPV-related lesions and cervical cancer. Accumulating data highlighted the cost-effectiveness of introducing HPV vaccination for adolescent and young adults. In the present review, we critically evaluated the role of vaccination against HPV, focusing much more on the role of vaccination in specific cluster of subjects (eg, post-treatment and older adults). Additionally, we evaluated the available evidence on the role of vaccination in HIV-positive subjects and in women receiving solid organs transplantation. We observed that although vaccination might be considered effective in those cluster of subjects; further evidence is needed to assess the cost-effectiveness of vaccination in these settings.
